A fan asking for money on r/kpophelp so they can buy albums (1 Viewer)

Am I the only one who's WTFing over this?

Shouldn't it be easier for them to ask people to buy for themselves?

Since the main goal is to help the artists they like.

I'm all for getting free stuff but they can go enter as many giveaways as they want. If anyone has any disposable income i'm sure they'd rather spend it on their own non-essential items, not buy non-essentials for a random person on the internet just because they're feeling depressed like the majority of the rest of us, or they might even prefer donating their money to the people who actually need it cuz they can't afford to live... I'm not saying they can't ask for money to get kpop albums and i'm sure there are some people who are kind enough to help them out but I feel like they're just taking advantage of that kindness with that post. Let people be kind on their own accord and sign up when they do giveaways and stuff, but don't try to plead that kindness out of them and ask for certain things, it's really quite cheeky...

Based on the wording it seems like they're quite young, I don't see why we should be making fun of them for this. If you don't want to give them money then just ignore it and move on.

I'm not making fun, just trying to understand tho. They have a PayPal account, so they cannot be THAT young.

I dunno, not necessarily! Not to mention it might be a parents account.

Twitter's probably a better place or messaging their local fanbase

Sort of shady... But at least they like k-pop?
They are going about it the wrong way though and the shipping kills you not the album cost, at least for me.
