I can emathise with you Bob,

I've had (what I thought were) serious requests for pieces I've composed; I've costed the total bill (postage, handling etc converted to US$) and replied to the request, only to hear nothing back.

My pieces are cheaper than commercial pieces (I don't have the overheads), perhaps people think that means the quality is less. It's not: ever seen a typo in a published piece...I certainly have!

Perhaps people are cautious about sending money to a non-commercial address, thinking I won't deliver the product. I certainly can't afford to send before payment.

Anyway, people seem to prefer sticking to the titles/publishers/composers they know. Anyone like to give the new guy a break?

Cheers,

Ian
