(313) 294-0021
Ripped off a bunch of people at the Relapse records BB. He even came out and made everyone aware of his intentions when
suspicions arose.
I decided to make a rip off thread today because someone's deadline has been way overdue and I've been way too over-patient. The scumbag is named Matt Mullen and he's from Kingston, Ontario Canada. Back in February we did a trade, 3 of his cd's for 3 of mine. I almost immediately sent my part of the trade, but I got nothing from his side. I contacted him to see what was the holdup, and he told me that he had forgot all about it and that he'd send my cd's out ASAP on rush delivery. It's now the middle of August and I haven't received a goddamn thing. Fuck, I've even gotten ahold of one of his good friend's with whom I trade with frequently to see if he would be able to shed light upon the situation. His friend told me that he had spoken with him about our trade and that Mr. Mullen had asked what cd's did he owe me and that he'd ship them out ASAP. Still nothing. I've emailed him numerous times and every single time I've emailed the guy I've gotten no reply. The emails haven't been getting returned so I know the account is still active and that he reads them, and that he's pretty much blatantly ripping me off. I've given this guy too much leniency and should have done this a loooong time ago. Without further adieu, here's the guy's info and a warning to you all:
Matt Mullen
Room 345 McNeill House
Queen's University
Kingston, Ontario
Canada
K7L 3T8
(I'm assuming this address is the address of a school and it may be invalid now, but I don't give a fuck.)
Email address:
ecliptica_@hotmail.com (old email address)
kmullen@cogeco.ca (new email address)
Also, he went by the name guardianoftheblind on the Metal-Rules.com/Disgruntled Metalheads board before the big crash.
One last parting note: Matt, if you are reading this, I hope someone decides to rob the Denny's you work at while you're on the clock. I also hope that person decides to put a fucking bullet through that thief-intellect infested skull of yours you worthless piece of shit. FUCK OFF!
-Never trade with someone in the Philippines unless they send first. This is LAW in trading circles.
Oh yeah, there's this person that I came across on the UltimateMetal.com trading forum. His name was Cannibal666 and he was offering a bunch of random metal cd's. Negotiations were pretty smooth until he dropped his mailing address on me. Since he was from the Philippines I requested that he send first and he got his labia in a twist over it. He offered to send by registered mail, but in countries like his you can STILL end up being ripped off with registered mail. I told him that my way is the way that it had to be or there would be no trade and that I would warn everyone else about him. So I guess that's what I'm doing here. Here's his address and his email, followed by his list of 'trade references' (I did a background check on these emails and they yielded no info whatsoever. In fact, two of them where obscure yahoo accounts.) :
-ADDRESS:
Jojo Salvador,
C/o Bong Salvador,
Fastcargo Logistic Corp.,
Makar Wahrf, Gen. Santos City,
Philippines, 8000
-His EMAIL ADDRESS:
mydarkdesire_04@yahoo.com
-EMAIL ADDRESS NAME:
Marites Algones
His 'TRADING REFERENCES'
jodas_distributions@EUDORAMAIL.COM
METALLEON_DISTRIBUTIONS@YAHOO.COM
cODE_JACK200469@YAHOO.COM
mystic_myrtle802@yahoo.com
ALSO, he ripped someone off from the Blackmetal.co.uk trading forum. Here's the link to all the details. FUCK THIS MOTHERFUCKER AND FUCK THE PHILIPPINES.

As for good traders, I've traded with A LOT of people from this board and many others. I'd list them, but there's way too many to list and I have them all categorized by name, email address, and trading forum and I doubt they'd want me to post all their personal contact information in a non-private setting.
