I know we have had this discussion about barters, but in some cases it truly works for both parties. Originally Posted by London Rayne

But to the extent that you are into barter this is an example of the type that seems to cause the fewest problems. That is both parties perform on or about the same time, neither side has a future obligation to the other. The only real issue is if the guy f'ups the botox treatments, but from what I understand for someone trained to do it that is a very small risk.
Contrast this with situations where the barter isn't clean & there is risk one side will not perform or not perform satisfactorily, like "I'll do your books for a session every other month," or "If you design my website I'll give you 3 freebies..."
I do think you're a lil young for the 'tox, London. Tough to give a decent BJ if you can't make your facial muscles move the way you'd like them too.... Originally Posted by atlcomedy
