Any more info? Bought a bunch of demo's which all arrived. Bought a second batch but didn't pay cause he didn't answer anymore.
Seems like the classic Laurent trick all over again. Sell a lot of records/demo's and have good feedback. Sell another batch and dissapearing with the money.

He did it with the items that fetched the smallest sums. If I would rip off somebody I would sell the cheap ones first for the feedback and rip off when I sell the high priced items.
I guess, you were lucky Humus, not te be ripped off

Watch out for this one:

http://cgi.ebay.com/SIREN-FINANCIAL-SUI ... =Music_CDs

The seller ignores questions about the matrix and lists one after another.

I think you were lucky The Knell and Humus...I feel even more bad for the guy who bought him 30 tapes though...

This guy who got ripped off told me that Laurent said he was very sick or something...we don't believe in that crap.

CDs arrived and they don't look like bootlegs.I can't think of a reason why someone would make fake 5$ CDs,but the booklet quality looks fine,donno....
