Crazy, crazy doll people...

Just got through reading how this one chick FAKED HER OWN DEATH, sent the certificate to SOOM and everything, just to get out of a couple of preorders, once everyone caught on to her and tried to get their money back. Holy crap, that's just nutters to the extreme.

I have to admit that one of the things I miss most about the land o' Pullip-crack was when someone would go nuclear, lose their mind, and rip a bunch of people off. The ensuing drama was nothing short of amazing. (Not that I didn't/don't feel bad for the people getting screwed, but as a bystander, it was entertaining as hell.)
Second only to catfights. Ah, memories.
I'm thinking the only reason you'd want to be trapped on a boat with crazy doll people is because you were planning on stealing the dolls and killing people. One too many mystery novels set at sea.

I think I left the pullip forums too soon for any good stuff. I do dislike the people for scamming, but sometimes I'm just like "Why did you keep giving them second chances in the first place and not filing claims?? Geez!"

And the one time I got burned, it was just for like, seven bucks for a couple of shirts. So, so sad.
*cackles* I'm going to have that mental picture of the dinghy for quite awhile.
