If you trade with someone and they send first and the tapes are fuzzy and some have no sound . Only one tape plays good. When they were stated to be in great condition? Also there were 3 stickers on 1 tape where they had been recorded over. Would it be right to just send them back or what?

If that would happen to me I wouldn't want to spend the money to send the tapes back. This person sends you unwatchable shows on used tapes so he's the one that should pay the postage to have the tapes back.

He could post you as a bad trader but you didn't do anything wrong.

I would just chalk it up as a loss because it wouldn't be nothing that I could do now. I hope you didn't pay a lot for them-I know i would be hotter than the month of July if that hAppened to me.

Did you contact them???No reason not to contact them ,if it were me I would do a new one for you and send it out.I had a trade with someone on here,well he emailed me and the tapes had no sound,my av jack for audio wasnt plugged in,the redo was good to go.

If the master copy is poor,you wont get any better.

I contacted him about 4 days ago, the day I got the tapes, and told him the condition they were in. I haven't heard anything yet! I like the post about good/bad traders on here. It really helps! As this was my first trade on here, but I'm sure it'll get better!
