following
 Aps
 in
 mind
 to
 make
 the
 trade
 a

great
 deal
 for
 everyone:

1.? Make
  sure
  the
  details
  of
  the
  arrangement
  are

clearly
 understood
 and
 set
 in
 wriAng
 whenever

possible.

2.? Make
 sure
 that
 the
 date,
 Ame
 and
 other
 details

of
 the
 event
 are
 strictly
 followed.
 Most
 owners

are
  understandably
  annoyed
  if
  you
  promise
  a

one-­?hour
  photoshoot
  that
  turns
  into
  four

hours.

3.? Make
  sure
  that
  whatever
  you
  promised
  the

owner
  is
  exactly
  what
  you
  deliver,
  or
  more
  –

never
  less.
  Welching
  on
  a
  bartered
  deal
  is
  a

good
  way
  to
  quickly
  earn
  a
  bad
  reputaAon,
  and

the
  fast
  road
  to
  being
  banned
  from
  future

items
 you
 may
 wish
 to
 barter
 for.

4.? Make
  sure
  that
  the
  items
  are
  returned
  in
  the

same
 condiAon
 as
 borrowed.
 (When
 borrowing

property,
 whether
 it
 is
 a
 vase
 of
 a
 classic
 Buick,

I
  always
  make
  sure
  my
  insurance
  policy
  will

cover
 any
 damages.
