Item: Antique Vintage Unusual Ivory Pineapple Bobbin Lace (330115668540) This message was sent while the listing was active. morrigan50 is the seller. She's not "my" lacemaker. Frankly, if you have nothing better to do than get bent out of shape over an Ebay ad and send snobbish emails to me, you need to get a life! Go make some lace or bother someone else, you pest! The other day, I noticed a bit of lace on eBay (330115668540) which was described as "bobbin lace". I politely wrote to the seller and explained that I was a lacemaker, and that it was clear to me that the lace they were offering was not hand-made, but was machine made. In response, I received an email which quoted "a lacemaker" as saying that even though machine made laces are not handmade, they are still vintage. OK, I have no problem with that, but when I responded that his/her lacemaker was not referring to bobbin-lace, s/he got ugly!! I got the following email: "She's not "my" lacemaker. Frankly, if you have nothing better to do than get bent out of shape over an Ebay ad and send snobbish emails to me, you need to get a life! Go make some lace or bother someone else, you pest!" Well, it seems that the sellers on eBay have waded out of a deeper end of the gene pool!!! Beware!! This seller, for sure, is not interested in the facts, and just wants to expoit the term, "bobbin lace". (So what else is new?) I've reported him/her to eBay, for whatever good that will do.
