The time has come down to saying good-bye to a hobby I once loved. Yes, I am leaving the model horse hobby. After the fall out yesterday over the prices of models and how one person took upon herself to start calling me names, I can't and WONT take it anymore. I have sold a few of my models, but the rest will be destroyed. Why you ask, well that is cause no matter how many times I put them up on eBay or on model horse sales pages(and other selling sites), Someone is always reporting them as fraudulent postings. I have been banned from 3 auction sites and have been warned with a few others. I tried selling on Facebook. That in itself is a joke. A big one at that. Nobody wants to buy what I have cause they believe in the rumors. So, I have decided to destroy the models.
When the time comes, I will also deactivate my FB account and not return. I will however keep my Google + account, but that is it. Social media has brought out the worse in the hobby and they love to keep that nasty taste in ones mouth. I could post a list of who those rotten people are, but the list is just to damn long.
When I told Daniel about my decision, he was happy. He never has liked the hobby and proved it in so many ways. Now he won't have to worry about me traveling to different towns to show anymore. The only traveling I will be doing is to go see my family.
