What ever happened to WallKandy?, by davedandconfused on Jul 30, 2014 13:47:37 GMT 1, So what happened to WallKandy and all the old ebay forum members? Did they all sell their collections and emigrate to the Bahamas? Had some good banter with some of those ones. 
So what happened to WallKandy and all the old ebay forum members? Did they all sell their collections and emigrate to the Bahamas? Had some good banter with some of those ones. It's not hard to find out what WK's up to, photo's all over FB IG and so on, even here, so only persona non grata not photo non grata |

So what happened to WallKandy and all the old ebay forum members? Did they all sell their collections and emigrate to the Bahamas? Had some good banter with some of those ones. Some of us are still around, although under a different name. Not yet gone to the Bahamas, but paid the mortgage off! |

What ever happened to WallKandy?, by ABC on Jul 30, 2014 14:01:42 GMT 1, I was on both, Walkandy was a great source of information and had some serious collectors. Ian (Wallkandy) Is still, if not more involved in the art world now, that's why he does not have time to run a forum.

What ever happened to WallKandy?, by Deleted on Jul 30, 2014 14:02:24 GMT 1, That's the photography dude, isn't it? What happened to the forum? Did it implode for any reason? A war between the old guard and the noobs?
Some of us posted more on here as there was nowhere else.
There was - albeit briefly - another forum started ( can't remember the name ) but this was like Betamax to this forum's VHS status.
That's the photography dude, isn't it? What happened to the forum? Did it implode for any reason? A war between the old guard and the noobs? Others are more knowledgeable than me, but think Ian just packed it in one day. Unfortunately none of it is available as a point of reference because it did have some fantastic history within its pages. Some of us posted more on here as there was nowhere else.

That's the photography dude, isn't it? What happened to the forum? Did it implode for any reason? A war between the old guard and the noobs? It simply had its time and moved on. Towards the end, it was lucky to see a handful of posts a day so certainly no war as you questioned. Great collection of people looking in the rear view mirror but, from memory, there was a fair bit of policing at one point in its evolution. I suspect that drained the energy from those that oversaw it and they decided to shut it down as participation waned. That's my recollection anyway but I was admittedly not privy to any managerial discussions. |

My book includes research done on both Wallkandy and the OEF. Sadly both forums were taken down (in 2010 and 2011 respectively) and with them a lot of very interesting discussions and other material.

It is indeed a shame that those discussions etc are no longer available

Spoke to Ian about it once. As Wiz notes he is a very nice fella. He got pretty weary of it all by the end and got a lot of hassle from certain members. His ambition at the time was to do pretty much what he's doing now...and good luck to him.

What ever happened to WallKandy?, by RBK on Aug 1, 2014 17:08:00 GMT 1, Wallkandy was a great resource and my favorite time period of this "scene".
I virtually met a ton of very passionate collectors and great people through it, some of who I am still close to to this day. It is too bad all that rich information it isn't archived somewhere.
I'm guessing many of the WallKandy members are on this forum. I just really wish everyone used their old screenames, as I am sure many of the people I used to enjoy talking with are on here - I just don't know it is them and I'd love to reconnect.
