THE NAME AND SHAME GAME - SHITTY PUNK TRADERS

One of the things I do like about the interwebz and social networking is meeting new punx from all over the world and trading tapes and stuff - that's great. Especially when you also exchange services for services or goods (I'll make you 50 pins for one of the 7")...

This is how all scenes should be, and Crom be praised, still is.

But it's also a trust game, and 99.9% of the punx out there are awesome with it. But you will run into those who sometimes don't fully play the game.

And those who do not play the game need to be named and shamed, so other good, honest people don't trade with them. My recent let-down...

LÄRM PUREMINDS

I sent him SIX lucien CDs in trade for ONE t-shirt in October.
by November I was wondering what the hold up was, I sent a mail, never heard back.
Eventually in December I heard back and he said - "I think it was an unfair trade". What, So I send you 6 CD albums and you send me one t-shirt. That's somehow unfair to you?
Then he told me that he can send if I send him the postage!
People this is not how you do trades.

Anyway DO NOT TRADE WITH HIM. And if you are new to trading the rules are simple, be cool, always send your stuff, if you're not sure about something or can't keep up your part of the bargain, don't do it. It has to be cool for everyone and let-down's like this make a bad name.

I have many other cool people from around the world that I trade with on a regular basis such as BEBAL DISTRO - awesome guy!
