Sadomator and Proclamation shirts...Not bad for boots. He's pretty fast shipper too, but I try not to vouch for anyone exclusively. One person's experience may differ from another.

Thats good you had a sucessfull transaction with him.

I still wonder tho, why would he try and sell me 50 copies of the same demo cdr, at the cost of $2 each with shipping included to Canada.....With jewel cases, shipping alone would probally be around $60-$70 for 50 cds to Canada from the Phillipinnes....Know what I'm saying?

Ok, I got your idea...

But the postage might not be soo expensive... For exemple, the biggest packages I sent you cost me sthg like 20 euros... And it contained more than 20 demos... In a way, the more you send, the cheaper it is for each CD in the package...

Gab, 50 cds with jewel cases @ $100 shipping included....Whats a pro cd cost each piece to produce, at least $1.50? Then the shipping even if its 50 cents per cd, he's ONLY breaking even, so that defeats the purpose of him NOT wanting to trade his bands cdr, but too sell them ONLY for recording costs......See what i'm saying?

Maybe, but when items aren't actively available and you desire them..sometimes you do it. I may not agree with the bootlegging..but when you don't have shit to wear, they look real good. I am not going to spend ridiculous money on a shirt just because the band is cult.

I don't agree with his tactics, but like you said...when you're broke...

Like I said...I wouldn't sway your opinon. I wouldn't take the demo anyway....it's not really that good. :\ I had a promo laying around for review.

Well in this case were not talking about cult bands... But currently active bands who have merchandise... If it was CORONER or something why not... But these two bands are active

True, but as far as their shirts go...they are either non existent or out of print and extremely expensive. I'd go the extra mile and spend the money for music, but I wouldn't dare spend $30-$40 on a t-shirt.
