Eric aka pinnyshop is the opposite of what Pinny Arcade is all about. It is about community and trading. This guy profits from community efforts and contributes nothing. People should blacklist this store.

Hi Liu. It shows this was a generic review so I'll assume you didn't place an order. However, it does show that you're from Australia and I believe your critique is unfair and misguided. I attend all the USA based shows and I consider myself a contributing member of the Pinny Arcade community, and have been regarded as such. As I don't have a chance to attend PAX Aus, I obtain Aus pins through trading along with asking a few AUS friends that attend the show to help me obtain these pins. With these efforts, I am able to provide pins to those who otherwise can't get them through going to PAX Aus. One of the values of having an online shop is that it has helped many community members obtain pins who may not prefer to trade but also it helps members who can't attend PAX. In order to do this, I invest my time and money to support and create a site that is for the community. If you read the reviews, there are very happy members that are from Aus as well as throughout the world. If you have a chance to come to a USA based PAX, you would see that the essence of my participation at these shows is about trading and building community.
