Contact/Ordering
MAILORDER INSTRUCTIONS:
All orders in the U.S. are postage paid (that means there’s no extra charge for shipping)! Postage donations are rad and will help us struggling bandits out, and if you can’t we know how it is to be broke too.
We prefer (well hidden) cash, but if you want to send a money order, leave the name part blank, and we’ll take care of it (DO NOT make it out to diy bandits!), and please no checks, we hate going to the bank, unless we are robbing them.
Orders outside the U.S. can send an international money order with the name part blank (don’t make it out to diy bandits) and just pay the higher price of our sliding scale-sorry but shipping is expensive.
Be sure to place a list of what you want and your address on your letter in case the envelope gets ripped.
CONTACT:
Send all orders, letters, weird drawings, locks of hair and plans for overthrowing governments to:
DIY BANDITS HQ
P.O. Box 101
ANSONIA CT 06401
(If you sent an order to previously listed address(es) (minus the PO BOX) it will still be received. Please use this for all future letters/orders)
email us at:
diybandits@gmail.com
Write/e-mail if you have questions or for any old reason at all, we love getting letters (and writing them back!)
CREDIT CARD INSTRUCTIONS:
First rule with credit cards is to burn them fuckers if you have any!
While we personnally don’t accept credit cards our on line distributer does (at a slight mark up). They carry most of our releases but we don’t encourage you to order from them because credit cards are evil! Anyway it’s actually cheaper to order direct from us and more fun because we’ll send ya a nice letter and some free extras most likely. But if you feel the need to sell your soul to a system of credit and debt you can pay with a credit card at:
www.interpunk.com/search.cfm?what=2&searchfor=DIY%20Bandits for punk and folk releaeses

BANDITS ACROSS THE U.S. & ACROSS THE WATER:
We are interested in tearing down all borders! You can help by forming a Bandits Faction in your area/country. You would have to distro/mailorder Bandit releases. It won’t cost you a thing to get started-we’ll hook it up for free and you can keep any profits to fund your own DIY projects. You can also use our raccoon logo and name on your OWN projects if ya want. If you’re serious about doing this hit us up at diybandits@gmail.com for more info.
WHOLESALE INFO:
In order to get wholesale rates (for bandit releases only-not our distro items) you must order 4 or more of the same item. Shipping is included (meaning no extra fee). Trades are possible sometimes-just contact us first for details. The wholesale rates are as follows:
DIY Bandit cd’s = $3.75
DIY Bandit cd-r’s = $3.00
Zines = coming soon!
Shirts =coming soon!
SEND US YOUR STUFF
We’d love to hear your music, read your zine/poetry or see your art. Send anything to the address above and we will respond. If you send multible copies we will send them out for free all over the country with our orders or send some to the DIY Bandits Midwest contact to give away there. Though it doesn’t happen often we sometimes end up working with a band/artist we didn’t know about simply because they sent us something and we loved it. Like Black Heart rebellion did!
Don’t feel bad if we don’t work with you though. If we had the money (or better yet didn’t struggle under a capitalist system that requires money ) we’d do our best to work with every single person/band that gets in touch-but sadly capitalist have taken control of the means of production and releasing projects has become an expensive commodity. Since we currently function at a loss on all of our releases it takes a good amount of time and effort for us to put out new stuff-but we feel it’s better to function like this than to up our prices and rip you off in order to produce more commodities. We’re not a business or a real record label at all-we’re just some good friends scattered along the east coast and a few out west who love releasing good music and writings.
