  • I would hardly have said we laughed at her misfortunes either.
  • Nah it says 31 weeks to baby number 2?

    Her company website is still up and running - perhaps she's just been overrun with all the orders etc. I hope all is well with her and the baby.

    I would doubt that FIL would have financed Obi as he has his own troubles. He's not that long been out prison in the U.S. - fraud.
    I would think that would go against any near relatives wishing to emigrate there. He was probably deported after serving his sentence anyway.
    I wouldn't expect any order placed on Obi's website to be actually delivered. I think both hers and her partner's registration have been suspended by ebay.

    I think if you read through all of Obi's posts, you'll see that it was her EX's Ebay account that had been suspended - hers was accidentally linked by Ebay but that got sorted out.

    And as to her website, it's up & running - and it is a separate website, not an Ebay shop.

    Ysabell - I never got that impression about Obi- do you know her or actively dislike her?

    I do hope all is ok with her. Maybe we'll hear something soon.

    Ive been in the shop and that was enough for me. Obi was a fantasist, never her fault that everything went pear-shaped. Managed to kill that shop single-handed and now trying to sell the stock on ebay using another new account. her and her boyfriends old accounts are still frozen for non-payment.
    She's on her fourth surname that I know about and the U.S. will never let her in to run a business.
    She wrote a good sob story though, I'll give her tthat.

    Wow ysabell, you appear to know an awful lot of personal details about OberonSH and I'm guessing your not her greatest fan, so why post negatives about her?

    Do you have an vested interest in running her down, it certainly appears that you do!

    To Obi if your out there, just let us all know how your doing, there are loads of us who'd really like to know how you are doing hun. XXX

    I agree the Poster really does seem to have it in for Obi, I really think that as they have nothing positve to say then they should just stop posting... I too would love to hear how Obi and family are doing I really hope all is well with them!!:D
