[21:22]
manjaro user:
I checked items of this profile and i see nothing valuable
Why do we have to do that middleman stuff?
You add me for trade, but you dont want to trade cuz my items could be duped and stuff
This middlemans doesnt seem to be trustworthy
Go find another trustworthy reputable middleman or trade without him

My bad, seems like he changed profile link and i didn't saved his steamid. I'm unsure what's his steamid or profile name right now, but this is totally not him - Shubbler link is steamcommunity.com/id/Shubbler. Sorry.
