a flexi skirt,
TWO flexi hairstyles

to EVERYONE that comes!Due to my recent diagnosis of kidney cancer I can no longer maintain new items for the shop, so I am having events and giving away some of the things I was never able to get set up in the store for sale.
SO BRING ALL YOUR FRIENDS!!!
all remaining skins are just $399L and hair is 69L!!! grab all you want!!
WE will have a display set up inside the shop. just land there and click the board to receive your free flexi-skirt and flexi hair.
Can you identify any of these items? I think I can pick out at least two stolen content items being advertised for sale, whose original creators I recognize.

the "cancer" is the flagrant copybotting – KIN, LeLutka, Gritty Kitty, Deviant Kitties – Rockberry, Abyss skins -

I think SL causes sales cancer..still trying to figure out what disease causes copybotting.

I really dont see what good posting this kind of info does. Sure it tells people with morals not to go there and purchase anything but you are also probably alerting hundreds of people to the fact that they can get ripped work by quality designers at a knock down price.
If it's purely for the "can you identify any of these items" game, well then that's just silly.

I agree Missy. And to be honest, the way the post was set up I didn't even realize it was a post about stollen content until the end. I damn near just TP'd over to get some stuff. My bad

This store has been selling and giving away stolen items for almost a year that I know of, possible longer. I reported the items I knew when I found them back in the day but I didn't know very many designers by sight at the time and I didn't know anything about inspecting and whatnot. Very sad to see it is still there.

Like Sileny said, this has been going on with this store a long time. I contacted several people back in April about their stolen items there. This is the girl that on some of the styles has the real creator's prim names.

Oops, I take that back. I just found the pictures I took when I sent the designers' the information. It was Feb 8, 2009.

Yep. Original designers names on the stuff. Very, very obviously stolen. Like I said, I am insanely shocked these haven't been removed.

I was probably living under a rock the last months, but… i thought copybotted items are always with another creator name, not the original one… How the hell can the copybots do that?
So if you are buying something (from a fleah market or from someone else than the original shop) its really hard to check it out, if its copybotted or not… Its terrible!

The creator is the copybotter but the prims are named for the store. For example there was hair there for Find Ash and the prims were all labeled FA Torus which is exactly how Reopa labels his prims.

Wow… Instead of learning how to create things by themself, they are learning how to copy better and better…
So, it isnt safe to buy any item that isnt sold in the original store anymore, good to know…
Blahblahblahwhatever

Heh. Anyone just diagnosed with cancer wouldn’t be that enthusiastic about giving their items away.

This woman is a scam ! That cancer message is a fake. I once took up a job as a model while i was new on SL. When i wanted my pay, she always used to delay and send me messages through her assistant [who is really her alt]. That cancer message is to get money and sympathy from people. And this was more than a year back !
