Dunnyaddicted is still around? Yeah, she was a big time flipper (but then again, I have a ton of KR and western vinyl on ebay right now, so go figure)... :wink:

I thought DA kinda disappeared before I even stopped posting over there...

there's a certain type of flipper that bugs me...the ones that hog up at least 4 just to resale and/or the ones that don't even collect...
if you are cleaning house and your tastes change and you can get a good amount of $$$ for it, why not?!

yea she's still around, she was selling a lot on kr last year and then she disappeared after she was found out and had a couple problem transactions.
dunnyaddicted + velvetrose + that moonlight one = same person!

So why do you have two separate ebay identities? (Kidclam & MiniCupid) I thought it was against the rules for a seller to have two IDs... sounds suspicious to me.

kidclam wrote:
I don't live alone.

:roll:

Kidclam's currently using the alias "choppingblock9648" on eBay as his seller's ID. He changed it after his connection to Minicupid was revealed. "Kidclam" remains his ebay store's name however.

From Choppingblock9648/Kidclam's eBay feedback history: there are 4 separate positive feedback reports from "Minicupid".

So this guy isn't just a flipper, he shill bids his own auctions, and pumps up his own ebay seller ratings by posting positive feedback for himself.

Sounds like a perfect subject for Cornbluth to interview...


Yeah and Loco thinks I am also Garadama, Old Balance, Chaos and that I shill bid to be a dishonest seller. I give up telling the same story to him, but it seems like he hates to be proved wrong since he has tried for so many years to put shit on my name with absolutely no good reason.

My reply is in my signature.

You keep at it Loco with your righteous public prosecutions and step all over my private life, my wife's honor/reputation (she runs Mini Cupid and cannot defend herself here) and also keep threatening me with your PMs. I haven't lied to anyone here on this board or made anyone here with any bad deals. I have had bad deals with trades here before but I won't publicly tell everyone because you just become an ass yourself if you do..

Please be a little bit mature about it and ask me in a polite way if you have any accusations rather than put your nose in other people's business. I don't want to pigeon hole you but the way you are acting tells me you really need some issues fixed. Your behavior here is really unacceptable.

I have also been finger pointed at for instigating every possible auction that is out there that people get angry about, possible shill bidding (again pure speculation with no proof)...but hey if you need a scapegoat I am here...

I think I have been here long enough for people to know I am a good person. But when you have to ask me if I am this and that, I really don't want to have to defend myself when I didn't do anything to hurt you or anyone.

I think I have dealt with enough people here for them to know who I am. I just don't like to be questioned like in court from people who love to finger point and think they are the holy of holy things next to God.

I come here and enjoy talking about toys every single day. If anyone has a problem with me, PM me to ask to chat on the phone or IM.

Unfortunately, I have to take this up to Super7 admin people, it's getting ridiculous.

Besides the shits from Loco...

I really question Cornbluths real intentions since his first ever post here was to ask about wholesale contacts etc. I saw his questions when he PM me, and it all seem to lead to that.

I also question why would you do an article on a mag that talks about Street culture but the questions seem kind of superficial?

Cornbluth are you doing this because you are interested in setting up your shop for yourself for toys and shoes? I don't care if you do or not but covering it up to get the insider info is kind of lame.

guys let's get back on topic here.

i don't want to see anyone being singled out in this thread. cornbluth asked for information from people to directly pm him, not to accuse other people.

keep it in line or it gets locked. i don't want to do that.

All noise aside, I just want to say that if people get caught doing something wrong, we as a board can be pretty forgiving if the party is adult enough to just admit they got caught and apologize. Just saying...

thank you atease.


To kind of reiterate my intentions with this thread, I simply want to present the perspective of limited edition goods resellers. I'm not trying to blow up anyone's spot or expose them in any way...nor am I trying to move in on anyone's business.

I mean, just judging by how this small thread has developed, this is obviously a poignant topic amongst the culture...and it parallels the sneaker game too. So I think it's relevant and something that people would be engaged to read in depth through first person accounts and insight.


Sorry if I was disrespectful to anyone, or if my actions instigated any negativity... that wasn't my intention.

But please. Be assured that if you decide to contact me, your identities will remain anonymous if you wish. I've been around the board for a long time, and there are many people who have trusted me with certain privy info. It does me no good to out you anyway...

Negative, Ghostrider. There are some handpaints, but that's not one of them. If Isaac wants to flip it though, I don't have a problem with it.

Any LA area resellers interested in being in the photoshoot for this piece? Pm me, we'd like to shoot you with your home inventory...you'll be featured in the article and we can do it so you can still remain anonymous.
