***I have been away for several weeks due to surgery, a move, work and other things. I am trying to go through my inbox beginning tonight (9/20). Trading will still be off for a while.***

I strive for a 100% positive rating. I believe being a good trading partner is the right thing to do, and it means I have credibility to continue making deals. If we trade and something is wrong, please let me know so I can fix it.

I will try to give you as much information as possible on the cards you would receive. I'll send photos and explain issues. I have been updating conditions on my cards for trade.

I grade conservatively. An EX-MT card to me might be NM to you, so just ask for details.

Please don't send me cards with soft or dinged corners. Just let me know before and we can try to find substitutes to complete the deal.  

I always mail from the post office. This is partly because I don't have outgoing mail in my apartment building, but also so I get the right postage on your package.

I try to be thorough when I respond to messages for trades in progress, but I am often lousy at responding to new proposals. If nothing grabs me immediately, I sit on them and time passes. Sorry to anyone I have left hanging, and I will try to improve.
