After nearly 20 years of collecting this crap I can safely say . . . the real good stuff comes to he who waits and it's not all about the $$$!

Id be flattered that my work is worth more than I thought it was.. This whole statement is just ridiculous. I have sculpted and had a few toys produced(nothing that fits on SB at all so i'll leave it at that). Quite awhile ago something released limited to 10 pieces in a certain color and ONE guy managed to snag every single one and started offering them at 5x the price. It was the first time that had ever happened to me. I didn't feel great because people were willing to shell out more money. I felt like shit that people who want what I make were getting hosed. I don't even make money off what I do. If I am lucky one toy will fund the supplies for the next. Prices are kept as low as possible so anyone can grab what I've done. It's not about money or even gaining a following since half of what I do I keep my name out of. It's about sharing something I made and enjoy with other people. What I ended up doing was getting that color released again instantly as a pre-order to shut down the flipper. Yeah it made the limited to 10 thing totally untrue but I didn't give a damn. My toys are limited in number because supplies are expensive. Limited in color because making just one would be boring. Limited in price because I am a fan of toys and toy collectors more then a fan of steaks and lobsters.

Andy, please just write a book already. "How not to be a Fuck-Tard" also be sure to sell it for like $500 so all the appropriate readers will buy it.

I'm pretty sure both people are skullbrainers and probably got everything for great deals. And then do this crap...... I hope both people get a taste of their own medicine. I hope they get the boot, and the only way to obtain items that we all cherish so much, is through other flippers...... Man this ticks me off....... And yes, if you are new, and lets say you crawled from underneath a rock, only to find your self on SB..... And you " unknowingly ". Tried to make money this way, and you thought it was acceptable... I know this is not the case, but for shits and giggles...... Take a F'ing break, maybe for ever...... Join the KR forum, you would get along quite well there. But you need to take a step back and look at what we are all saying. And it's not just the collectors saying this... It's the artist!!!! I hope you understand our frustrations....... And take this seriously

 Re: skinner x shikaruna x lulubell
Yep you are correct.... Edited, Got confused there's a name very similiar I have on my shit list
Sorry about that.
I'm the type of person who stays in my hole, until I read someone taking it to the level of disrespect..... I get a bit upset,
I tattoo all day, I put my heart and soul into the art I do.....
It's just upsetting......
I feel terrible about wrongly accusing someone. Very terrible actually And I did search..... Looks like one of the good guys to me

Such a good skinner collection. I have to display my throne of skills with my bogs too, they just fit too well together.

What's it take to ban this "godsendconspire" jagg-off? Can we get a petition going? I'm sure nobody would vote for him to stay.

Dragging ones ass out of a gutter full of ignorance and appreciating; worth, effort, dedication and influence are key to wholly enjoying this hobby. I feel that a lot of these folk just want a toy, get their rocks off and then trash it to the side like some meaningless thing. There is a manner in approaching this that sometimes is way more rewarding to the hobby than the objects themselves. Hey, but we write the same shit every season, huh? Let them come and try to fly their ships. I love watching when they sink.

 Re: skinner x shikaruna x lulubell
Eff no this is one of a kind custom from skinner directly. A) cant put a monetary value on it because to me its priceless and b) I actually collect bogs and this is by far the sickest one ive ever seen. This one's stayin with me forever
