Default Be Careful

I'm pretty sure that BarbJRose is not working with Herbert Worthington. This is the same person that has ripped off a LOT of people on the internet over the past 8-9 years. I have been online in the Stevie fan base for about 10 years and I can remember a LOT of issues going on with this person. She goes by Barbara Rose and Barbara McLewen. The last I knew, she was a restaurant hostess and a Stevie impersonator/performer from Kentucky - why would Herbert Worthington work with her as opposed to someone in the entertainment or promotion business, or at least someone with a background in business?

If I'm wrong, though, and someone can PROVE to me that she IS working with him, I will publicly acknowledge such!

I have heard rumors that she has used a lot of Herbert's images without his permission and has ripped HIM off.

One of the other things was that there was a lot of drama with her selling bootleg Stevie t-shirts from her car at Enchanted and/or TISL concerts. In addition, she got a LOT of bad ratings on Ebay under a different user name a few years back because people were not getting the items they purchased OR they were getting garbage. One thing that sticks in my mind is that she was selling photos that were sold as being high quality, and they were arriving as bad quality, inkjet-type prints.

If you look at her website and the beautyandtheebeast user name, she has given him (or her own user name?) feedback, under the name of enchantedmirror, which is the name of her website. Why would she need to buy from herself? Or from him? I somehow doubt that Herbert Worthington purchased a Purple Dragon Window Cling from her! And on her website, she is asking patience from people who ordered things 3 months ago? No one should have to wait 3 months!

Before you purchase something from her, do your homework. Contact Herbert Worthington's camp before you do that - and be sure it's the real Herbert Worthington camp you are contacting. Also, use PayPal if you purchase something, so you will have their money-back guarantee.

Hello, "Moonbeam",
Please arrange your facts correctly.
I have never sold under any other user than my current one on eBay, the USER ID has been StevieNicksTreasures, then since I was selling other items than just Stevie, was changed to MyTimelessTreasures, and now it is EnchantedMirror to coincide with my store, at EnchantedMirror.com...BUT, these were all the SAME USER, just changed the titles (there is an option to do that on eBay, so they don't frown upon it)
It is perfectly ok to change your user name on eBay, they allow that, and many people do that, as their companies change/grow. You will see that I have been selling on eBay, always as MYSELF, since 1999. To date, I have 3462 Positive feedbacks, and 10 Negative, since 1999. I think that proves that you are wrong about me "ripping people off."
Secondly, I welcome anyone to contact Herbie, and ask him directly if I am his friend, and yes, working with him, do you think he would allow me to put his tee shirts in my store, if I were not? His official website is:
http://www.hwworthington.com/
and you can contact him thru said site.
As for his new eBay listings, I helped him with that, and that is HIS user ID, not mine, and the reason he purchased a fairy decal from me, is he needed 5 feedbacks to start selling multiple items, and so he asked if he could purchase something small from me to get started listing right away. Again, no problem with that.
I use ONLY Herbie's images in my custom jewelry and unique items, with his full permission. And selling tshirts from my car? My dear, you are QUITE misinformed on so many topics, as this NEVER happened ... I don't know why my working with Herbie has upset you so, but it is, indeed true, and I recommend that anyone who has ANY questions about this, please DO contact Herbie, yourself, and ask him. Moonbeam, I am not sure who you are, but it sounds like you are one of the 7W gang who I exposed for something, and this is your way of attempting to discredit me.
As far as taking three months for custom made capes, shawls, etc. from my store, YES, it does take a long time to create the items, as all of my fabrics and fringe are imported and each item is custom made per order, this is clearly stated in my storefront, so no one will be disappointed. As far as my "background in business", I have run my own successful company, the Enchanted Mirror, since 1999, so I do know a bit about "business". And yes, indeed, I still do Stevie Nicks Tribute shows, what fun that is!
By the way, my name is Barbara McLuin, and Barbara Rose was a nickname, but my name is, and always has been, McLuin. So you didn't even have that part right. Please stop attempting to discredit me with lies, due to your own inner issues.
I do not, nor does anyone else here, have to "prove" anything to you. Oh, yes, and you are...who?? Didn't catch your real name....
And I won't hold my breath for your "public announcement" that you are wrong. Sounds like you have held a grudge against me for many years,
this is not surprising, since I do the tribute shows, and am lucky enough to run a lovely "Stevie related" business, I do have the occasional haters just for that.
The fact that you post that I would publicly associate myself with someone as famous and professional as Herbert Worthington, without actually BEING associated with him,
well, THAT is just beyond absurd...and sounds like "sour grapes" to me.
All the best~
Barbara

I don't want to get in the middle of this, but now I'm confused because last year Herbert was selling some of his stuff on eBay and already had an account, why did he need to make a new one? Was the person who was selling his prints under his name last year a fake? What about when he sold the statue from the Bella Donna photo shoot? I guess what I'm saying is supposedly he's been buying and selling on eBay since 2000 so why did he need to create a new i.d. when he's already got one?

Hi Skuncles!

Yes, he did indeed sell on eBay last year, but he wanted to start a whole new "only Stevie" user name, to sell only Stevie related stuff, and none of his antiques or other items. He has the calendars to sell, as well as the beautiful t-shirts. I believe he buys and sells non-Stevie items under his original name, but this new one, BeautyAndTheeBeast, is only to offer the fans Stevie items.
So no, the person selling the prints and such before was not a "fake", it was, indeed, Herbie, but he just wants to start a fresh set of listings for the Stevie fans only. I thought it was a pretty cool idea!

Thank you Kathy!
I certainly would have no reason to "pretend" to know Herbie or be working with him on some projects. I know some people do "anything" to get close to Stevie or her friends, but I am not one of those. Herbie is a very nice person, and has been my friend for a few years now. He knows I am active in the fan community, and I am always happy to give him thoughts on what I believe "the fans" would like, or are looking for, and I always welcome suggestions, and ideas from everyone, as those of you who know me, already know
Note cards should be forthcoming, as well as very beautiful, limited edition poster size prints, at very reasonable pricing! I will keep you up to date on all the latest

It is very easy, indeed, to find out the truth, simply go to Nickfix,
which has the link to Herbie's website (but maybe Nicksfix is not really Nicksfix, maybe that is ME, too...LOLOLOL) and pop the Herbs an eMail asking him.
Just ignore the Negative people in this lifetime, they always try to find something bad in GOOD things...

Please do, I hope anyone who has suggestions (other than the Coffee Table book, he KNOWS everyone wants that, LOL) please let me know,
and I will pass the info on to him. There really are so many projects that would be awesome with his vast collection of amazing photographs, of both Stevie and Fleetwood Mac.~Thanks again
