Say you got something in trade from someone else, and it’s a “No Trade” item.

Does that “no trade” have a deadline?

Can you trade it after a year? Two years? Five years? A decade? Never can trade it at all?

Should one try and get permission from the person you got it from if you wanna trade it after a certain amount of time? (assuming they can be located)

If it’s something that’s in the trading pool already, but your copy is marked “no trade”, then what?

If you agreed to the “No Trade” rule I believe no matter what you have to stick to that. The only exception is if the person you got it from agrees for you to trade the item if you so desire.

So Ron – How long have you had the Largo 81 & 84 shows ? :mrgreen:
Add this to the list – If you have a ‘no trade’ item, are you allowed to put it on your trade
list or even let anyone else know that you have it ?


When you turn on your stereo, does it return the favor?

I would say No. I know some people who do though. My problem would be that my “list” is the same as my “trade list”. I don’t have/keep two separate lists.

If it’s in the trading pool because the originator put it out there – then by all means – go ahead and trade it. Otherwise, I’d contact the originator and ask if it’s OK to trade it. As far as a timeline … I probably wouldn’t ever trade it. Having said that, I’d probably forget I even had it as I don’t do much trading anymore and I don’t go back and watch old shows very often unless I have them on a hard drive.

I suppose you’re morally obligated to not trade it. But what “rule” says that someone can record a show and then dictate who is allowed to see/hear it or not? I would think once they share it to 2 or so people it’s gonna get out. And what loss is it to the taper if it does?

I can give an example. There is a venue that I shoot video at that you virtually never hear about in trade circles except for the occasional audio recording (but never video). I’ve basically found a way to stealth video there that works really well. One of the keys to my success is that I have to film from a very specific spot – literally there is this one seat that for several reasons is perfect for stealthing and it’s a general admission venue so as long as I arrive early, I can always get that seat. I have yet to publicly release any of these shows because as soon as I do – I would worry that management there (and they are known for really being tyrants about cameras, people talking between songs, etc.) might decide to keep a close eye on the area where that seat is located (and they would only have to watch a very small section of seats).

Interesting example. I have to ask, have you filmed VH at that venue?

This venue gets some fairly well known artists – but it’s way too small for the mighty VH.

What if the person has passed away…. or is no longer involved in trading?

You probably shouldn’t trade it without asking the original trader, but then again, once it’s yours, it’s yours to do what you want with it.
