Funky Riddms closing?

You know what? It's awful to wish somebody bad who is going through it like that. True enough, before dude came with the bullshit I came up on a lot of heat. And even though dude kinda knew ebay or whatever, he didn't charge at all ridiculous prices... Oliver, that Diamond D is ridiculous. There were plenty of things like that... "Tonights The Night RMX", "Walk Into The Sun RMX" 12"s for nice prices and shit.
i think its usually a sad thing for an independent record store to close. i think dude was a little arrogant and condescending toward me, but he wasnt high on his prices.
come to think of it, i remember trying to talk him down a couple bucks on a fairly priced joint....so maybe i'm the dickhead
well... i guess it's better than being like gabe at funky riddims...
B.O.X. ( beyond ordinary exisitance ) & MR. LEE 12" horder!

You know, I get that vibe from a lot of small shops. Like I'm almost unwelcomed there. Has everything to do with the person behind the counter. Only record store I've ever been too that really made me feel welcomed was Rooky Ricardo's on Haight St. That dude is fucking awesome but nobody ever seems to mention his shop.
its sad his store is closing but at the same time gabe is not a businessman. he killed his own store and in this record game you either do it right or you find yourself another profession.
as regular guy gabe he is alright. hes likeable enough to be around and have a drink with or a convo. he knows a shitload of chicks due to his store being right next to the campus. i cant tell you how many fine ass women would walk by or come in and say hi to dude. crazy! i like gabe when were not dealing with records.
record gabe is a different dude though and while i dont think its right to spark on dude as a person... record gabe is up for a beating. he just made a lot of mistakes. he irritated the rest of the diggin community... and i mean cats like me: dealers/collectors/allaroundpimpoftheyear... ahem. anyway, he made a lot of mistakes in buying and selling at his store. he made a lot of mistakes buying and selling outside of his store.
so, talk shit about record gabe all day because he fucked up... but be gentle on regular guy gabe cause hes okay by me!
