I have many other, more important things to post about. Like broken toes and baby monkeys. And I know that the vast majority of my flist won't understand this. But I'm saying it, because it needs to be said, and no one in the wide wide world of google has said it yet.

Ria_ria is a scalper.

You heard me, a big scalp scalping scalper. If it was just her (fucking outrageous) 50% commission fee, I would merely say that she's overpriced. If it was just that she (illegally) charges paypal fees, I would merely say that she sucks. If it was just the way she raised her prices when the U.S. dollar was so low even though her prices are in yen, I would merely say that she's unethical.

But she charges $150 for something that VOLKS DOES FOR FREE. In my book, that makes you not only a scalper, but a thief.

And I, for one, do not understand why there are so many people in the BJD fandom waiting in line to lick her ass, when it's so easy to find FCS for a much more reasonable price. And the most frustrating part is that you can't even let these people know what a rip-off they're buying into, because that would violate DoA's "price policing" policy. So that's why I'm saying it here, because if just one person googles her name and finds this, it will be worth it.
