My sizable collection is everything I could find locally, and a few cd's I just purchased from folks on the list...I have NONE of this rare stuff, i.e. Joyrex's HAB's and any AB's other than number one. And the reason we are waiing is because it would just be hell trying to update every single person on EXACTLY what tracks they need to send, whne it's much easier to just dub off a couple EP's and send it. Less wait, less hassle...I don't even think I need to justify myself, but then again, maybe I do...

In a sense, you're right. But that is the whole point of the comp is to get stuff you don't have and have practically nil chance of getting. All I know is, I have seen NONE of the stuff being contributed for sale anywhere around my local vicinity. Look, I am doing the work here, and if getting all these dubs is a small bonus...so be it...sheesh...try to share a little and look what happens...
