Earlier this week when I found some very inexpensive lipstick (with teeth) tattoo layers on Marketplace, I thought I would give it try. I went to the store and bought a couple of packs in-world, and several more packs on the Marketplace for myself and some friends.

I thought they were inexpensive, and pretty well done, so I found the creator and sent her an IM in-world to say how much I liked her lips. The exchange was brief, and she was nice enough. She also provided pretty excellent customer service when one of the packs that I’ve purchased was delivered incorrectly.

Readers on my blog noticed the new tattoos and asked where I purchased them from — but I didn’t share. I am selfish. I like to keep some things to myself. What’s new?

Another reason why I didn’t share the info is because I thought this creator was kind of an asshole after reading her picks. I didn’t feel bad about not giving her business any publicity. I’m really sorry to the 20+ people who left comments on my blog and Flickr inquiring about these lips, but I just don’t want to endorse someone with this attitude.

If you can’t read the image above, this is what her pick says:

If you are a customer or a passer by this is in no way directed at you. If you were planning on bashing me, trying to debate about my prices or being a dumbass, by all means read on!

Several designers and owners of groups seem to find my store to be some kind of threat.

You know what? KISS MY ASS. I make adequate money to cash out from my business, pay my land tier and don’t sit around praying someone will buy a turd with lipstick from me for 1k.

If this hurts your business, STEP IT UP. You probably weren’t making money before I price dumped anyway were you. Yeah deny it you lying bucket of goat urine.

I make it possible for people that couldn’t normally have nice things to go in style. Not everybody here can crap money.

Also for every noob that gets in a nice skin from me, that’s 1 other artist’s creation saved from wearing as a welcome area issued ripoff.

Sorry your crap doesn’t sell. Market the hell out of it, put it at a decent price, Don’t swim in my toilet and I won’t pee in your pool.

If you are a customer or a passer by this is in no way directed at you. If you were planning on bashing me, trying to debate about my prices or being a dumbass, by all means read on!

So, that’s my reason. If you still wan’t it, use SL Search.
