Gamehenge Tapers Co-op is a not-for-profit organization that was created to serve the Portland tapers community. The tapers community is a hobby based community that trades live recordings for personal use, never for commercial gain. The Co-op will provide the equipment required to tap these shows, which in turn supports the trade community (people who only trade these live shows). The Co-op sells recording equipment wholesale at a low overhead. It encourages active tapers to be more active by offering members heavily discounted rates. Because the organization operates as a non-profit cooperative, members will volunteer their time in order to help it succeed. The organization exists to support the trading community.
The organization will be able to pay membership dues as well as a small overhead charge to cover its costs and allow it to grow slowly. Gamehenge Tapers Co-op plans to increase their membership by at least 20% each year.
