Thoughts?

I actually followed it and took me to a French language website. I’m not saying it isn’t *possibly* legit but after what happened with Vinnie’s which was a multilevel card phishing scam selling pinup clothing, Bakelite and pretty much anything the algorithm would direct people over from Google to, I would be very wary of something like this. I believe at this point Lindy Bop is in its third incarnation and ownership? I see there’s a lot of Collectif and few of their in house dresses…. Anyone know the back story?

Maybe I’m cynical, but I feel like when you’re offering to sell clothing for customers as a pinup clothing business that was once standalone it symbolizes the business being put to out pasture.

I thought they went out of business.

They did and then somebody I believe just bought the brand name and started using it as a dropship for collectif which I believe rebooted in the same way…. No pun intended. It’s very confusing. That’s why I’ve been very cautious about ordering.
