    Am I the only person,
    that thinks this place is an utter shambles?

    They are butchering kids, who dont no any better.

    They rarely/never ask for i.d, and dont give healing advice,
    and use the worst jewelery (home made) ever.

    Not only that, but they are taking business away from good reparatable places.
    Places that actualy care about their clients.

    Health and safety should shut this place down, for good.

    I'm not from Dublin, but I've even heard it's a disgrace.

    The place has a terrible reputation, Snakebite used to keep a portfolio of horror and a fair chunk of that was done by the arcade most likely (though not fact). One problem here is the complete lack of regulation of the industry. To the best of my knowledge, I could open a studio tomorrow and tattoo anyone I like and pierce anybody without recourse or need for proper training. Its a completely self-regulated industry. So long as studios arent tattooing 11 year olds and posing a threat to the general health of the public the government arent all that concerned.

    When I was in getting my last piercing, my piercer told me about a girl she knows who got a VCH in the arcade a few years ago, and they brought her into the jacks in the little cafe opposite to do it!! :eek::eek:

    so she told me, but personally I always take anything that starts with 'a friend of a friend' etc as less than gospel. ;)

    That place is not good at all, I have got two piercings but NEVER NEVER have I gone there.
    Some days when out around town and walking around the arcade you can see all the young one's queueing outside the stall waiting to get whatever they are getting done done and there is NO way they can keep it hygienic!!!!!

    Read the charter, no friend of a friend posts are allowed.

    Very true.

    Let that which is provable be spoke.
    NOBODY is allowed to start threads which are simply to slate a place. It's in the charter.

    Consider this a first and last warning folks, anyone starts any threads along this line will get an infraction and a two week holiday from the forum.
