Tags on Post: advice for artists, fursuit

Also, the edited version of the post naming lordkaosu along with his side of the story.

I will not be adding any beware tags unless one side or another provides some screenshots of the transaction.

ETA: Considering the OP's identity has been confirmed along with their attempt to lie about the situation, I've removed the tag for lordkaosu and added a 'beware' against sweetnightmare.

Comments

[mrst4nkr.livejournal.com]

Definitely interesting.

[shukivengeance.livejournal.com]

Wow i'm glad the truth came out about that one. Pretending the suit was custom made and the chargeback done after receiving was very low of the OP to do.

[spiffystuff.livejournal.com]

Hah! I'm glad I threw in a few "from what you say" and "sounds like" into my comment to that person then :P (at least, I think I did)

[cesarin.livejournal.com]

wow, this dude deleted that entry when someone confronted him about this?

[keaalu.livejournal.com]

Seeing that "killmytv" is an alt for sweetnightmare? I'm not surprised that the OP was spun in her favour.

[mandyseley.livejournal.com]

Wow. I like giving the benefit of the doubt but it is certainly suspicious when someone deletes an entry after hearing from the other party involved...

This deleted-post-retrieval system is so great for stuff like this, thank you for implementing it, mods! :)

[feather-dancer.livejournal.com]

I still have it up with 25 comments including his WAIT A MINUTE post (Albeit nothing after then) if you want it. Left it up to read later.

[hamburger.livejournal.com]

That's okay, none of the other comments were much more than speculation so what we have here will suffice.

[genkigami.livejournal.com]

Feel free to screen if you feel this is inappropriate to bring up, mods, but isn't sweetnightmare the one suspected of scamming donations for a different tragedy every week to buy fursuit parts? That combined with the deletion is incredibly fishy.

[goosestep-lion.livejournal.com]

Yes, this is the same person.

[likeshine.livejournal.com]

suspicious indeed

[killmytv.livejournal.com]

i am NOT sweetnightmare. please stop assuming things. and i took it down because i got the advice i needed and there was no need for a flame war to continue. please remove this posting.

Did you even read this community's rules before posting here? You're not allowed to take your post down for any reason.

Hmmm... Sketchy...

Clearing things up

[lordkaosu.livejournal.com]

The original auction for the fursuit: http://www.furbuy.com/auctions/1021852.html


Payment was made through Paypal. The email listed on the seller's Furbuy profile changed after our dealings.

I was asked why I initiated a charge-back without consulting the seller for a refund. A refund was discussed after a few weeks of payment and sweetnightmare had said the money was already gone. I decided to wait a couple more weeks to give them a chance to send but my patience was finally at an end. I didn't see another way to get my money back or see the fursuit getting shipped. I should have included this information in my reply, my apologies.

Re: Clearing things up

[hamburger.livejournal.com]

Ah, so there's confirmation that this is sweetnightmare. Thank you kindly.

[lordkaosu.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the information about this!

[killmytv.livejournal.com]

I am not sweetnightmare. I am her friend, yes.

Here is a link to the fact that the package was indeed delivered and signed for

http://wwwapps.ups.com/WebTracking/track?HTMLVersion=5.0&loc=en_US&Requester=UPSHome&WBPM_lid=homepage%2Fct1.html_pnl_trk&trackNums=1zwf00140391870915&track.x=Track#

He still has the suit, and he still has the money.

[kayla-la.livejournal.com]

I'm just curious, but why did it take you months to send out a package with already paid for shipping?

[trimblecat.livejournal.com]

It's also been suggested on the bad fur comminity that this guy sold a used murrsuit body on Furbuy, but claimed they motified it and closed up the hole so it was no longer a murrsuit... that was used. They also refused to provide pics of the suit turned inside out to prove there was no hole to begin with.

Bad fur post
http://bad-fur.livejournal.com/103207.html
And suit in question:
http://www.furbuy.com/auctions/1022503.html

Their track record for being honest has been shakey. They made extra sure not to tell the bidders that it was modified/a murr suit and deleted pics in their gallery that stated it was a murrsuit.

I hope it's okay I mention this here? I felt like it was important concerning the honesty.

[spreebok.livejournal.com]

Glad someone mentioned this, I was tempted to, I remember the resulting poop-storm lol

[minimalismo.livejournal.com]

.. the hell?

[snowghost.livejournal.com]

If lordkaosu won and paid for the suit in February, why did they relist the same fursuit on April 12?

[zackfig.livejournal.com]

Oh SNAP!!

[killmytv.livejournal.com]

I am no longer going to be a part of this. Like I told Hamburger, I did what I did because I was trying to help a friend get some advice. Now, I am leaving. This is like talking to a rock.

Have a good day, everyone.

[hamburger.livejournal.com]

Very well, but this will remain marked as a 'beware' against sweetnightmare.

When you posted, you spoke as if you were the person that sold the suit. Then, you changed to saying you were not sweetnightmare at all. Then, you claimed to be her friend just using an account with her information on it.

You have only caused to raise suspicion more by answering things selectively and lying about your identity.

[killmytv.livejournal.com]

this is not sweetnightmare this is canis, my friend was on this profile but its mine i made it just like i made the bluefox account. quit being so psycho and stop accussing sweetnightmare of everythign

[borderdog.livejournal.com]

I'm so confused. This seems to have turned into some personal beef that aurora has with the artist in question. Is it even about the fursuit/original post?

[hamburger.livejournal.com]

Originally, the purpose of this was to repost a post that had been deleted. Aurora got out of hand, and in the end I froze their back-and-forth arguing.

As of now, quite a few holes have popped up in killmytv's story, and I was trying to give them a chance to explain them since both sides claimed the other was withholding something from them. However they were kind of selective when it came to answering questions.

[lord-aperture.livejournal.com]

Um I don't know if this would be considered off topic but in a post above about a suit going for $100 before it got out of hand Killmytv mentions that they'er selling it to buy tires from a junk yard to replace dry rotted ones. I just want to point out that junk yard tires do not cost anywhere near that much to get, $60 for all four is even pushing it. I'v bought junk yard tires before there cheap hence they're from the junk yard. Also you take a chance with them being already slightly dry rotted.

I'm kinda upset I didn't see it sooner.

Using depression as an excuse - not cool, not cool at all.

As someone on TWO meds for my depression (and anxiety) and possibly about to be put on something else, Legally considered disabled because of it etc - it pisses me off that someone would make this an excuse.

Yes, I'm slow to do art - I admit that.

However I don't take people's money and scam them - and I can drive my own self to the post office if I absolutely have to (I don't like being alone and I have agoraphobia for large crowds but I will do it if it is something necessary to do).

My medical records are as such. Debilitating Depression w/ anxiety with a case of agoraphobia. Uncontrollable panic attacks, prone to anger and crying etc etc.

I can get copies of my records to show if it's really necessary - it isn't some excuse nor is it a walk in the park - but you will NEVER see me do something like this to anyone.

[lobotomysoup.livejournal.com]

You don't need to show your medical records.
You're also not the only person in this community with some type of depression, anxiety, panic disorder, personality disorder, ect. Its why it tends to put everyone on edge when someone pulls that card. Either we know someone with an issue or have it ourselves.
