Running lengths that fall between stock lengths should be rounded up to the next highest T-length. All master tapes are treated with utmost care and we assume all masters submitted for duplication are safety masters. If your tape is an original master, we can create a safety master for your program. Distribution Services MBS Direct prefers to stock videotapes on a consignment basis in a distribution-only agreement with a client institution. The client institution and MBS Direct determine the supply of videotapes to inventory, and the client institution arranges a drop-shipment from the duplication house to MBS Direct.
Rebates are available only for the return of a complete and reusable tape set.
A tape set that is not complete and reusable does not receive any rebate, nor is an incomplete and non-usable tape set shipped back to students. MBS Direct inserts information and instructions on the rebate offer with each tape set order. MBS Direct refurbishment of previously viewed tapes includes rewinding, new spine labels, new white cardboard sleeves, and new shrink wrap, as necessary. Previously viewed tapes are sold at the original retail price of the tape sets. The above information only outlines the general operation of MBS Direct's videotape duplication and distribution services.
