What does NVY mean?
NVY stands for Not Viewed Yet. I haven't had time to watch this tape to determine its quality rating.

Where can I get better tapes?
If you're looking for a wider variety or better quality tapes that I can't offer you, you're welcome to visit these sites. However, for those who have a limited budget, they are slightly more expensive.

VKLL is the best fansubber I know of for Sailor Moon. I believe as of now he has Saint Tail, also, but I don't know what else he has. Also, the quality of VKLL's fansubs are great!

Ron's Fansub Trading Post has a variety of fansubbed anime, but since I've never bought or traded from him, I couldn't comment on the quality.

Yahoo Search: Anime Fansubs Use this link to search for "anime fansubs" using Yahoo's search engine.

What are the shipping procedures?
US: All tapes will be sent by priority mail.
Canada & International: One tape will be sent by global priority mail, 2-3 tapes sent regular air mail.

Top.

What does [end] mean?
[end] means that this tape is has the last episode of the series on it.

Top.

How many tapes can I order?
As of [05.23.02] you can order up to SIX tapes at a time. If the status of that changes, it will be updated right here.

Top.

What does a generation mean?
A generation is what number copy the tape I have is. For example, if the original is the 1st generation, the fansub I copied my tape from is the 2nd generation, then the tape I have is the 3rd generation. Which makes your copy the 4th generation.

What forms of payment do you accept/when should I send it?

***I now accept Pay Pal payments.***
Please read this before paying by paypal!
I ONLY accept cash or money order. Canadian & International payments should be sent as cash or an INTERNATIONAL POSTAL MONEY ORDER.
Payment should be sent as soon as possible. I only start copying tapes upon receipt of payment. Which really means that you can send the payment whenever you want to, but I won't start copying the tapes until I receive the payment.

What does the quality rating mean?
The quality rating is a measure of how good the quality of the tape is. For example, my Sailor Moon S vol's 1 and 2 are copies of a possible-4th generation-tape, but they are not-so-great copies -- there are scenes where if there is a lot of white in it, it blots out the other colors. It is still viewable and good if you want to see the complete Sailor Moon seasons, but do not have a lot of money to spend on it. (Like me!)

Ratings:
A+: Master tape.
A: Very good tape, good 2nd generation copy, no problems.
A-: Good tape, okay 2nd or good 3rd generation copy, maybe lower qualty tape, but still *great*.
B+: Good tape, bad 2nd or okay 3rd generation copy, maybe lower quality tape with some flickering at certain parts.
B: Okay tape, not-so-great 3rd+ generation copy, lower quality tape, some flickering or grainy at parts, loss of color/contrast.
B-: Acceptable tape, similar to B but probably a 4th or 5th generation copy, loss of color at times is annoying.
C or lower: I probably won't have many of these because I'd return it or something if possible. If I do have it that means it's viewable, but the negative aspects detract from enjoyment of watching...

What does sub/other mean?
Sub is short for subtitled. The tape is a Japanese-language dialogue tape with English subtitles.
Unsub is short for unsubtitled. The tape is a Japanese-language dialogue tape without subtitles. Also known as raw.
Dub is short for dubbed. The tape is an English-language dialogue tape.

Top.

What is the backlog?
The backlog is the time (approximately) that it will take me to copy your tapes and send them to you after receipt of payment. This is due to the amount of schoolwork I have and/or the number of tapes which have already been requested for copying/trading.

BACKLOG (as of 01.06.02) is about 3-5 days.
Gomen for the inconvenience!

Top.

How do I know I can trust you?
Good question. I guess you won't really know if you can trust me until you receive your tapes. However, you can check my feedback rating at Yahoo or ebay. I haven't used Yahoo in over a year, but my ebay rating is doing quite well, thanks. >_< Click here to view my auctions, click here to view my ratings.
