  • This is a small community. People get to know one another here and sometimes even interact in the real world. Like in any community, people talk about other folks and gossip can circulate. And, like anywhere else, people can have conflict and beef and do stuff that isn't cool. Maybe Kevin fucked up some business deals - call him out on it, if you like. No one here would say its cool to get stole on. All this unspecifed rumor talk is weak, though. I'm not saying dude is an angel, and people should be pissed for getting nothing for their $$$. Call him up or call him out, but speculating on crack usage or some crazy shit is not going help your situation.

    crackhead business completely aside, it sounds like muliple people who post here regularly can confirm that K has been engaging in bad record business beyond the pale of reasonable conduct for a long time now. Why is this the first time it's coming out? This is no doubt what is fueling this whole thread to reach new levels of ugliness with every page. I brought this up already in a W*x*d*rmy thread about this situation, but why are people so sqeamish about airing out bad business like this? I realize that everyone has little friends who will e-jump you - I of all people have experienced this - but I believe it would have more or less nipped this situation we have here in the bud...

    It's better to say you stole while in clutches of drug addiction vs just being straight clepto. There is clearly still a stigma associated with addiction. As if it has more in common with being a degenerate criminal vs a person with a disease.

    you are annoying.

    I can still make points. OK? I apologized and scaled back in the other thread.

    I do think, though, that one reason the gossip/rampant speculation got out of control was he was/is a BIG fish in this small pond, and as this thread showed, a HUGE percentage of people on here have sent him large sums of money. Hell, I sent his $85 on a set sale, which is small in comparison to some, but I'd have been pissed had it been me. Which is why I figured most of the speculation happened- people realized they might have been the one out $600- which is a scary prospect for any of us.

    Not to justify, just to try to explain some of it.

    Exactly.

    I for one always assumed K was one of the better more well established dealers here. Finding out now that there have been people "in the know" about his bad grading/sometimes shipping habits really kinda pisses me off...

  • i liked it better when you would all just complain about his pics being too damn big...

    I think EVERYONE liked it better...I don't think anyone WANTED to see any of this happen.

    Woah woah woah.

    Nobody puts people on blast like this until there is no other recourse. Nobody made this thread in the past because he is a decent dude who at worst could manage his time better. Any time I had an issue with anything I brought it up with him and was sorted. I've never had any cause to even participate in a thread such as this. At least, that's what we all thought.

    I expect that most people have lives, jobs, and other obligations that might prevent them from jumping up and mailing my record. Even I, selling records for a living, have a couple packages that were supposed to go yesterday but will have to wait until tomorrow. I expect a certain amount of "give a fuck-ness" but things happen.

    I understand where this thread came from though, and I think it's fair given the situation. But it's fucking disgusting to see the vultures circle, dudes who ask Kevin "hey man I just found this weird reggae record called 1000 Volts Of Holt is it worth anything?", dudes who live just to scream "DIE" at his finds posts, to sit here and even stoke the flames let alone engage in some of the shit slinging that's been going on.

    Nobody kept some big secret mum because of an exclusive secret society attitude, shit if you asked me personally "Hey, I've been waiting a few weeks for this package, what's your experience?" I'd tell you that he sometimes takes a while but he'll take care of you. There's no need to ruin a guy's reputation as has happened over the course of the last 48 hours until there's really no other recourse.

    I hope all of you who work at day jobs and sit on soulstrut all day consider what it would be like if your cubicle neighbor next to you started talking to your boss about how you don't get your work done on time, how you spend your days talking about records instead of the job you were hired for, you have a drug problem and are addicted to online porn.

    If it was just a matter of slowness, I'd agree with you JP, but there are several people in this thread that are saying he claims to never have recieved payment/trades, etc. How often does this actually happen? Not too often. And some of this is going back years now...

    i know K. is ferris bueller on this board, and he is good friends of good friends of mine, but i can't sleep knowing he ripped me off.

    I've been sleeping fine lately, if that helps you any.

    Does the 10,000th viewer of this thread get a prize?

    I've never had a problem dealing with K, hope he's ok.

  • Speaking of a nominated new graemlin...

    I know there is a nominated "...and now...PAGE 10!"

    But, seeing the views on this thread, could we revise that to "...and now...10,000!!!!"

    Me too.

    I got burned two years ago and just resolved never to deal with him again. Putting people on blast on this board just invites instant beef with 20 bystanders who are sticking up for their pal irrespective of the facts. Plus, it's only when all the stories come together that the pattern emerges so don't be too pissed that folk didn't publicly call out K before this.
