i'm just some guy, not a dj or a label. in fact, i'm lowlier than just some guy. i'm a a newbie. but what i don't like about want/auction/trade/sales lists is they're kind of in-your-face and invassive and annoying. like brock said in a previous post, just a link or request for private reply is more appropriate. less in-your-face and annoying. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
