Your First Trade

[damageinc]

First trade? Hmm, let's see...

Aah, I got it. I'm still waiting for my first trade! Truly. Who wants to be the first?

Okay-okay, I did many (audio) trades via internet before, but that's all.

my first trade was done online on AIM with the owner of metlists.com (forgot his name) in early 2006 and I traded a rare 1983 audio show for a 2003 audio show.

my first snailmail trade was with king_nothing (shawn) on metpage this august and did a 4 disc trade, was pretty nervous as I didnt know how to send the package and what a jiffy bag was but shawn is a very nice guy and guided me correctly so everything went perfect and the rest is history

my first trade was back in 1988 Steve from England..then with Ron and Gerald(in Person trade)because they had on hand cassettes for me to pick and choose!!

singemfrc now known as wraith aka Bryan. Ha he is acutally responsible for me finding meftuk. he told me he talked in some met fourms besides his own, it was before he even had metlists up I think. So I did a search for singefrmc + metallica and metfuk came up like on top of the search. I guess he was a member there once upon a re-registration ago.

In the DVD days; I used to bother the shit out of Evenflow for the 1997-11-11 shows and couldn't believe when I finally bumbled my way through bootlegging a copy of my Melbourne 93 video to get it to him in exchange for it. It's still an old favourite too.

I really have no idea what my first VHS/tape would've been. I remember getting a copy of Live Shit taped from a mate in '95. Dunno if that counts though.

my first trade was this September with HorstKirk PageKian, two months after i designed his banner, so we did half trade, half B&P, i sent him a couple of shows and a couple of blanks.
i don't think he's a member here, but he's a member at JITF, and you can also find him at MetFuk

Before becoming a Metpage member I was a 4H member, and I used to do a lot of audio stuff. Via MetallicaBB I got in contact with this guy from Florida who was (or is?) in the U.S. Navy, and he offered to send me Lisbon 2004 in exchange for some audio shows he didnt have. When I got the show I watched it for days and days and days and decided I wanted more DVDs. I did a couple more trades with him, but unfortunately I lost contact with him..he was a great guy.

My first trade was sometimes in autumn 2005 with Phantom_Lord_GER. I recall that I had got download '04 from a friend and I traded that and some other show for Den Bosch '92.

[Churchchair]

(Jochem something if I remember correctly) was roaming the boards under different usernames and aliases ripping people off

Jochem Degraaf. And he still is active on the internet. Sometimes he sends spammail to my mailaccount. Recently I asked him to stop and he answered me with a big Fuck you.

On topic now: My first trade.

VHS tapes in the mid 90's. I traded a lot with guy who's name was Pascal and he lived in Belgium too (Does someone knows him?).
DVD: 2004 with another belgian guy. Hetgod (actually I bought the dvd (30 euro)). Does this guy still lives? He was a member of metpage.
A few weeks after that I discovered this site and the first trade was with Neorr or MetallicaMadrid I think.

I've just checked my database... it was Flickn !!!

I did my first DVD trade with Stokvis, and shortly after that i did one with Sorrowman, I got a few dvd shows and in exhange they got some pretty cool and rare audio shit from me, FLAC ofc. i was a audio trader before, but sorrowman got me into trading dvd's, and thats how it all began.
