Read carefully!

Basically, there are two methods...

1. Send DISKS to a burner... 1. Obtain some blank writable 700MB CD-ROMs. The choice of manufacturer of the CDs is not important, but very cheap CDs tend to fail easily. Currently all the ROM binaries for 0.127 will fit onto 140 CDs or 23 DVDs, but sending spare media will ensure that you get the full set even if one or more disks fail. If there is not enough available storage capacity to contain the ROM binaries, you will receive what can be done by the burner under those circumstances. 2. Send the media to one of the burner addresses located in your country, enclosing some method of postal return. This may be a padded (jiffy) bag with your address plus stamps ready for trouble-free dispatch, or merely an address label with the stamps attached. If you opt for the latter, your disks will most likely be returned in plain envelopes without the safety of the jiffy bag padding - your choice, your gamble. Do not expect the burner to (a) find out where you live, or (b) pay for your postage if you do not enclose any form of address or payment for postage. Handy tip: write your e-mail address on the back of the first envelope. If there's a problem, the burner can contact you! This symbol against a burner indicates that they participate in this method.

2. Send FUNDS to a burner... An alternative method is to send the cost of the raw materials directly to one of the burners in the hope that they will procure blank media, packaging and stamps for you. The minumum costs are quoted per country, but you should not be expected - nor asked - to send more than that amount. Do note that the choice of CD/DVD manufacturer and method of packaging is decided by the burner, and you should expect a slightly longer delay while the materials are being procured. It is important that you understand that this money does *not* represent a purchase or "order" between yourself and the person burning CDs for you. They are NOT charging you for the ROMs, they are using your money to buy YOU materials. This symbol against a burner indicates that they participate in this method.

ROMsets offered... Many of the burners are interested in emulation, rather than just MAME, and as such have a much broader collection to offer outside of MAME. If you are interested in obtaining other sets then feel free to contact burners with a tentative enquiry, but please remember that this is in addition to them burning ROMsets for use with MAME, and therefore any such request will probably be fulfilled *after* the backlog of MAME-related requests have been cleared. On *no* account should you contact a burner with a view to obtaining a copy of *everything* they've got. Not only will you be ignored, but there's every chance that your demands will be posted publicly in the howlers section of Tombstones to show that a long record of polite and understanding requests will, once in a while, get broken up with the occasional idiot.
