New skincandy ink? real or fake

So i was surfing the ol interwebs, and I was hoping around and checking out ink sites, and found a skincandy.net that had a neo traditional set of skin candy ink, Im not a big fan of skincandy ink or bloodline, but It got my currious i thought that they stopped producing skincandy line and went to bloodline, also I was wondering if www.bloodlinetattooinks.com or www.skincandy.net are supose to be the same or if one is a scam or what ever it may be, just kinda confused, and if anyones tried out this neotraditional ink, is it worth a damn?

Skin Candy & Blood Line are both Mark August's companies. To my knowledge skinny.net & bloodline's new site are ran by same company. Call Blood Line Directly & ask.

Most tattoo supply companies sell online Amazon.com, e-bay etc.. some have separate companies created just for this look in Nick Baxter's blog, Palo has a Shit fit over King Pin selling knock off versions of his machines under a different name same owners. Look on Amazon.com, Tommy Star Brite sold, Also Moms from technical tattoo supply.

My point is they could be creating a separate company to keep us shop owners quite.. Personally I could care less if you buy it & are licensed or not so what!

Joker Tattoo Supply, World Wide, Superior Tattoo Supply, Friction, Piercing Pros, Monster Steel, etc all on Amazon.com e-bay.

I look for authorized dealers, check prices. Sometimes I buy direct from manufacturer sometimes from a wholesaler, sometimes Amazon.com. if the same wholesaler or manufacturer is selling directly on e-bay & or Amazon.com, & its cheaper. Then I purchase from them.

Call the company directly, they will tell you the truth. Since they alway maintained skin candy . Net & The company information is the same my bet is as I Said, see what we are doing to insure only licensed professionals buy our supplies. BULL SHIT! THE FACT IS THERE ARE LITERALLY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS ON THE TABLE SELLING TO UN-LICENSE TATTOOERS. & NO BUSINESS MAN/WOMAN IS LEAVING THAT ON THE TABLE!

You see tattoo machine manufacturers checking licenses but yet 99% of their distribution centers do not! So What! The only idiots mad about this are weak artist & shops selling to scratchers at huge markups.. The best ink the best machine etc doesn't matter if you are good you are good! If you suck your work sucks!
