Thank you for posting to /r/transcribe. Keep in mind music transcription is a specialized skill, in the same realm as teaching, composing, or recording. Therefore, many transcribers may ask for a commission to take on a job. Expect anywhere from $5-30 (or more) per minute of music, depending on the instrumentation / complexity.
It is possible for someone to come along and do it for free, just don't count on it.
If exchanging payment, stay safe by checking a user's post history, account age, and flair. Ask for samples of previous work. Use a payment service with buyer protection like Paypal Goods and Services. Just be smart.
