Members honeyiscool Posted November 27, 2012 Members Share Posted November 27, 2012 "No trades or tattoos" is a common phrase but nobody's actually offered me a tat, yet. Meanwhile, people have offered me broken Playstation 2 controllers. When I said no to that, he threw in a couple of games. The same guy responded to a different ad like two weeks later with similar offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jrockbridge Posted November 27, 2012 Members Share Posted November 27, 2012 A girl offered me a BJ for a pedal once....as if I'd let a good stomp box go that cheap. By the way, if the wife asks, I lost that pedal somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members xrleroyx Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 I have a friend who plays bass that is extremely talented when it comes to tattooing. I personally don't have any, but I'd go to him if I wanted one. He's gotten some cool gear by doing tattoos. Mind you, he keeps it really professional, sterile and realistic.

Members ajympt Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 I've been offered a car- might have taken it if he was a little closer.... I know my brother spends a lot of $ on tattoo's, so I guess a good one could be currency if you got the right person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members arrowhen Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 I don't have any tattoos, mostly because I've never decided on a design that I thought was cool enough that I'd want it, you know, permanently attached to my body, but if I ever did get one, I'd want it to be from someone accomplished enough in their field that they could afford to buy my {censored}ty gear with actual money.

Members notjonahbutnoah Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 Yeah, they do. Man, this one guy wouldn't leave me alone. Kept texting me pictures of his crappy work. No Tattoos is a smart thing to put in a CL ad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members straycat113 Posted November 28, 2012 Members Share Posted November 28, 2012 Tattoo artist will exchange work for just about anything they deem of value to them, also the price of a good artist can run awfully high depending on notoriety.

Members nicholai Posted November 29, 2012 Members Share Posted November 29, 2012 Now if only Colorado's new laws allowed trading of "vegetables" for gear. I can't eat "veggies" anymore really, I'd love to exploit that. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members enroper Posted November 29, 2012 Members Share Posted November 29, 2012 see it all the time around here, but I would never got for that. Its probably some hack doing {censored}ty work in his kitchen. No thanks, I'll rather not have hepatitis or aids from some douchebag who has never heard about cross contamination. I hightly doubt any respectable artists in legitimate shops with proper health procedures are offering tattoo trades... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
