As I thanked Kevin a few days back, I got one heavy box of heavy blanks and he worked with me while I fitted the cost in my budget. In between I helped Tasuke by sending some of my own to him as a late Christmas present, some of which I was ultimately replacing with this purchase.
And as John has said, I sent him a new copy of the very first new Maxell blank he ever bought, which was pretty cool to me. And I got a lot of really nice blanks to replace some that I'd drawn down over time, mostly from selling or giving a few of my 'CARE packages' to others when I needed to.
The Maxell XLII-S was great to find and the TDKs and especially the 80s Sony UX varieties!
If you are thinking about trading with him I'd recommend it.
