I hate to be the one to point this out, but check the 8-K filed by the company yesterday. Jim Price is going to affect a one-for-ten REVERSE SPLIT on the stock. So if you have 1,000 shares, after the split next month, you will own 100 shares. Why he would want to reduce the float from 2 million to 200,00 shares is beyond me, but what is for certain, IMO, is that we are going to get killed over the short term. He swears all is well with the Company, and that lots of great things are coming over the next 6-9 months, but it doesn't add up. Who is going to buy a stock with a float of only 200,000 shs? Looks to me like he may just be positioning to take the whole thing private, on the cheap. I hope I'm wrong, and that he will see the light, and if the good things happen, do a forward split down the road, and not leave us hung out to dry.
No real idea re the Friday move. From what I'm hearing, sales of the FDR are going very well, and we will have to see what the next move is from Jim Price, who we know is on the acquisition trail. The main reason I got in this puppy still holds - that is a sound management/growth plan, float under 1 million, positive revenues and some earnings already on the books. I am hangin' tight.
.80 up 54% any ideas
Nice up move today with a pinch of volume. Anyone heard anything
Yes, crawling back up, come on $$ land.. Seems poised to consolidate here and make a run for the $ mark..

Ditto. Good morning Wales, that is great news, this stock is the big pain in my arse!!! Needless to say, what is the latest here.
Thanks, and looking forward to seeing $$$$ soon.

I agree, Ether, but somebody who is selling obviously doesn't.
Right now I am gettin my a.. handed to me on this one, and in hindsight (alwasy 20/20) should have kept some powder dry just in case this situation came along. But as we have said in the past, with only a mil. in the float, and the real float (ex family and friends) at only about half that, this puppy is going to be volatile to the extreme. I'm ready for a little of that volatility on the upside. Still like the fundamental story: earnings leverage in what I see are several good sectors (education and health issues), strong balance sheet (only debt is held by the CEO), and $10 million commitment by the Magellon Global Fund for expansion.
I'm definitely still here (ekythump) I've been doing a lot of travelling so I am not at the computer often.
Yes, it's a good thing when you have more more to invest in your company when it has a proven $$$-yielding gameplan.
It is bad when the company is a money sink, which this isn't.
By November when the book is hot off the press and selling ridiculously rapidly it will be apparent that the business plan is executable. This will add a lot of revenue but better, it will give Benacquista a huge base from which to launch the rest of their operations, whatever they may be.
Yes, I think that should help to set the stage for BAQG. I'm sure Jim didn't apply for the credit unless he has something in mind.
Since it has been almost a month from the last posting (also mine), I am probably talking to myself. However, if there are a couple of BAQG longs still out there, they announced yesterday that they had arranged a $10 million commitment from the Magellon Global Fund, available to finance both internal growth and acquisitions. This is , IMO, a huge positive development for the company. First, because the money, if used wisely, will no doubt ramp up the growth curve for this company by 3 -4 years, and secondly, because the Magellon funds are a large and well regarded outfit (i.e. they aren't known for throwing money around just on a whim). Upside ahead.
Hey, Fireman, and anybody else (is there anybody else out there?). Don't know if you noticed, but BAQG was up 38% today on pretty good (for this thin floater) volume. Next week could be interesting for the longs (all three of us).
I understand the company will have a research report out early next week, and that the analyst/company behind it have been very successful in attracting buying interest in their stocks. Also look for an interview today or tomorrow from the CEO on Wall Stree.net. It's been a long dry spell, but for those of us still long, we just might see some strong upside action over the next week or so.

SAN DIEGO, Sept. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Benacquista Galleries, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: BAQG) announced today suspending the sale of its subsidiary YNOT Eduk8.
'After further thought and due diligence, we have decided that the sale of YNOT Eduk8 at this time isn't in the best interest of our shareholders.

As always, my intention with Benacquista is to make each acquisition, distribution or new development enhance shareholder value,' stated Benacquista President Jim Price.
Price continued with, 'Benacquista will continue to assist YNOT Education and Physiognomy Interface to develop new products and will continue to manage and process sales transactions through the YNOT Eduk8 sales portal.'

Fireman - Same with me - sucking wind big time with BAQG. Nothing for sure, but I spoke with Jim Price (CEO) a couple of weeks ago, and he said he had been covered up with new projects, so hopefully some good news will result. With the actual float being around 1 mil, its going to be very volatile, and in this case to our detriment. Tempting to bail out, but I'm sticking.
What gives--- A late filing.. Yikers....Anyonw got any good info.. In the red on this one.....

Beautiful ADX & Aroon XOver Today -e-
I agree, Fringe, the accumulation is most impressive. Right now, the PR doesn't seem to be such a big deal, in that we are going to be given shares in a 4 cent pinky that is apparently only a web portal. What am I missing here? Of course the strength could be telling us that there is other and more meaty news in the offing.
BAQG Kicking Butt.....
Readying to rock. The Accumulation Line is the best I have seen in a long, long time.

Up 33% today! Looks like maybe the ball is starting to roll again?
hey guys I just started my first leg of a half-year long trip through Europe and Africa. Just checking in on BAQG, and I have to say I'm a bit surprised this company has gone so unnoticed.
Let's get some volume in here and see much higher prices in anticipation of the selling out of the second printing of the FDR.
Good idea, Low. A corporate name like Benacquista Group should be a lot more appealing to investors than Ben. Galleries. Hard to get a high P/E for art galleries, and that name doesn't really tell the story. I'm all for it.
Certainly has attracted the sophisticated penny flippers!!!
i'm reading up on the ibox info.
It seems to have that aire of sophistication to it...like a conglomeration of hi-end investors and banker types.
i really think so.
I'm kinda curious what peeps here thinks about "Galleries", and if a slight name change to "Group" might seem more appropriate?
The Benaquista Group
Sounds awesome to me...very NYSE!
yeah...i think you are on track BAQG
Keep it on watch...one o' these days! Kaboom!!!
HI l...FINALLY GOT HERE. THANK YOU.
I wonder if the sellers realize that since this volume is so low, if you put a sell order in at less than the ASK, your limit price becomes the stock's new ASK.
So if whoever has an order in to sell at $0.53, changed it to $0.55, the new ASK would be $0.55 instead of $0.53.
Either way, we need volume!!!
We definitely need recognition. Please spread awareness!
The Indicators that Count on the Charts...
... Are all good here... Money coming in, and sticking, while management is obviously not running the printing presses. Just needs some recognition.
This is SUCH a good idea. I can't wait to see the financial results later this year.

SAN DIEGO, July 25, 2006 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Benacquista Galleries, Inc. (BAQG) announced today the launch of the Tolman Diet and Wellness Center.
Benacquista President Jim Price stated, "We are pleased to announce the pre-launch of The Tolman Diet and Wellness Center, http://www.thetolmandiet.com. As a companion to the Farmacist Desk Reference, Don Tolman is writing the Tolman Diet Book which Benacquista will publish. In addition to the book, we are in the final stage of completing a fully interactive, online diet and wellness community web site. The web site is designed to be a diet center and wellness community, where members can have direct access to Don through discussion forums and weekly web casts. This is the exact forum that Don needs to deliver his message on nutrition and holistic health. This web site will be the launching pad for Don to deliver his message as well as present new and current products from Benacquista's subsidiary Ynot Eduk8. Members to the Wellness Center web site will pay $9.95 per month to have unlimited access to all of the information throughout the site as well as all Web Casts, Conference Calls and special Members Only E-Mails from Don Tolman."
"Mr. Tolman has traveled the World for over 30 years discussing Health, Nutrition, Memory and Human Performance.

The tortoise always wins the race. Those who try momo plays...for every winner, there's a loser, and the experienced momoplayers are the sharks of the sea.
For those with a bit of patience, a safe play pays better odds, in the long run. A GREAT safe play, pays even better!
I have a feeling that since BAQG was introduced to a lot of AURC/NDOL holders in the past, there were probably quite a few of them trying to free up funds today considering the state of those two companies.
It would take the entire country of Albania to equal Don's charisma and I think this will be our best asset.
