Ah ok so just on an assumption. Sorry thought you had seen the price somewhere. I would be amazed if anyone paid anywhere near that.

Just made up buddy :)  still 500k for a well known company seems quite cheap ??

Not if it's worthless.

Last set of accounts say it's worth £366k although they are 2 years old and it could have gone a little wrong since then

Surely they just keep them and put new stickers on?? I can't believe that if the shapes aren't changing they'd not just change the stickers.

I'm sure if the right people took it on it'd do well. Might not be as big as GN etc but it would make a few people a good living

Yes for sure. Without seeing the accounts I'm just guessing anyway.

Sorry to take this off topic.

Question for InsideInfo - sorry to divert topic - is it THE Lords Trade Show... if so cannot wait to see photos; are the presenters public knowledge/ allowed to be shared?

Yes, it is THE show. A 2 day extravaganza this year. Most brands will be going public with their ranges this week, if they haven't done so already, so whilst this is a show to the trade only, photos normally emerge pretty quickly. All the big players will be there this year I believe (except maybe Puma) and as usual their will be a smattering of the smaller/medium sized guys too.

So how do actually go about getting an invite?

They're sent by manufacturers to their retailers, or prospective retailers. If you speak to an exhibitor you may be able to get one.

Thanks. Do you know who gives the manufacturers the heads up?

Imagine it though, we could have some of the talented podshavers on here working for us...

This really would be amazing.

Any idea how much debt they are carrying, assuming they are leveraged to some extent and don't own any premises.
