Looks like Margrit needed to cover her shopping bill from Black Friday. LOL.
So how many MRIB shareholders still think MRIB is in business? Still no annual report and first quarter of fiscal 2015 is now getting close to two months late as well. Nevada business license is still in default and FTB suspension in California remains in place. As I read it, MRIB by virtue of these suspensions and lack of corporate status have invalidated their liquor licenses as well.
As a matter of fact, if you read the statute, anyone buying Marani with no MRIB license in place would be in serious violation and subject to shut down and hefty fines. Probably the reason that we haven't seen financials because sales are zero and probably have been since the FTB suspension over six months ago. The Nevada default is well over a year old. The "move" to Nevada was most likely just a way to collect on any outstanding receivables outside of the California suspension and probable lien on their California bank account(s)due to payroll tax violations. You can still collect with the Nevada default which would not be encumbered. Just can't carry out new sales.
As far as the shorts covering? That's humorous. There are no short positions and there never have been. And MMs cannot trade on their own accounts so that's all horse shit. Even if they did they'd still have to report any short position in their bi-monthly reports and none have been reported in the entire history of MRIB.
You can stick a fork in this one and call it what it now clearly was. A scam. And a second go around at that, that was a carbon copy of the first time around almost to the tee. Just so sad. Now it's down to degenerate penny gamblers who think they can buy at $.00001 and double their money. HA! All they're going to do is get caught holding worthless shares.
It's been pretty quiet for over a year. Last time we heard from Margrit was October of 2014 in her last Money TV appearance in which she said Brazil was "on its way!".
And let's not forget we haven't seen any financials reflecting activity going all the way back to March. Almost eight months with absolutely no information. But then again, MRIB has been under FTB suspension in CA and in default on their NV corporation since then so there is probably nothing to report. Certainly no new sales. I believe that would be illegal.
It probably won't be long before the suspension and default status revert to a surrender as the clock has been ticking.
Anybody really think MRIB is still in business? At least in the business of selling vodka? Funny, the Q1 MRIB fiscal year fins are now past due ( I think they were due October 15th) and we haven't even seen the annual report which was due months ago. And how is that Brazil shipment doing? I think someone owes me $10,000. But I'm sure I'll never see that just like MRIB investors will never see a dime of their investment made in MRIB. Any comment Gold? You're the man with the "inside" line to MRIB. Any comment on the Brazil shipment out of MRIB or the agreement we made regarding same?
HEY! There's some trading. Way to go MRIB!
Sue them? For what? MRIB doesn't have any money and I'm sure all the money that's been siphoned is long gone into a bank off shore. Who's going to risk spending more money suing MRIB when there's nothing left to get. A couple of cases of Marani?
Seems to be about the right activity for a company that's been out of business for more than a year. Fins are now close to two months late and this was the annual report they had 90 days to get done. I guess the fiscal MRIB Q1 fins are now late as well. Weren't they do November 15th? Just crickets.
"$.0001 is the loneliest number that you'll ever do..." Nothing but crickets for MRIB. But I'm sure they are hard at it "working on things", right? All those good things coming. Sales going good in the Southeast. Brazil any day now. Maybe another YouTube video with the three drunk stooges. Perhaps a table at a flea market in Alhambra. With all the things MRIB is probably working on I wonder wherever they'll ever find the time to get the financials done and out.
I'm still waiting for someone to explain to me how MRIB can operate at all with their long standing corporate default status and no business license as well as an FTB encumbrance.
How's that MRIB Brazil deal going? Just passed the one year anniversary of my $10,000 bet I won on that one. Too bad the bet got welched on.
Dips? Substantial dips? I have bad news for you. MRIB is as low as it can go. It's at par. The only dip left in this stock is after a reverse split. Furthermore, the stock at the current PPS is at least 4X overpriced based on the loans and conversions MRIB has on the books. The need to issue stock to cover conversions combined with the terminal stock price point to nothing less than a big time reverse split. And some more bad news. No one will make a dime in a reverse split. Just insiders just like back in 2008.
For all we know these videos are the product of some shareholder. We haven't heard a word from the actual company. No PR of the videos. Nothing. I'm starting to think the fake job postings were the work of a shareholder and not the company. Regardless, MRIB has no business license and therefore no valid liquor distribution license. Being in the business of selling vodka they are out of business.
Working on it? With those videos? What's the purpose? It's like putting a bumper sticker on wrecked car. The only purpose of these second rate videos for MRIB is to leak them to their minions for stock board distribution so claims can be made that MRIB is "doing something" where they're actually out of business.
Tell you what. I'll sell you as many calls you want at $.0002. Name your price. 20 million ok? Drop the dough and I'll cut the deal.
Those trades are totally fake. No one pays a 100% premium. You have no idea what you're talking about but that's nothing new as it applies to MRIB. It's a baited trap to buy the $.0001s for whatever the zero cost holders can get either off their conversion loans or personal holdings. Totally fake. Just Margrit selling shares to Ani or something like that. Maybe Charlie Owen or Ken Owen trading with Deborah Ridge. No interest in the stock. Just looking for a way to suck a little more out of it.
Here's a heads up on MRIB. Company is out of business, has no employees, no offices, no sales force, no business license, no marketing or advertising, no money, no credit, no sales and an FTB suspension in California for non-payment of payroll taxes. The stock is a no bid at $.0001 and trading has all but dried up other than some zero cost holders looking to load off at $.0001 baiting any gamblers by throwing out some fake trades at $.0002. Financials are almost a month late and OTC Markets is publishing the old STOP warning on MRIB and "Dark or Defunct company" warning. That's about the the gist of it. Oh yea. There's also the $3 million in debt and enough conversion deals to raise the needed shares to over 4 billion.
Got that right Gold. Just a whole lot of unsold vodka to give away to Internet hacks trying o keep up appearances that MRIB is still operating. Instead of doing this second rate YouTube crap MRIB should be putting their financials out. Maybe put a little attention to what may be the worst website I've ever seen?
Another video with Wayne and Garth? More MRIB trash. Thee guys with a webcam getting drunk in their mother's basement on free Marani. Yea. That's going to sell vodka.
So much activity for a company that's out of business? What activity? A crappy $55 canned website with all of three pages and no new content that took three months to put up? I especially like the link to financials which pulls up the MRIB STOP, "Dark or Defunct" listing on OTC. Nice touch. No marketing, no advertising, no news, no sales and we haven't heard a word from Margrit since October of 2014! And how about those financials and the much lauded new CFO/COO? Activity at MRIB? I'd say any activity is the result of as little effort and expense as is humanly possible to keep up the "appearance" of activity only. The stock is now pretty much dead and at $.0001 to stay with no bid other than what is obviously insiders trading amongst themselves at a premium trying to rouse some interest and sucker in some more folks to unload their zero cost shares. No, there is no business here. MRIB is a dormant worthless shell.
Company is out of business. Any new investors should know this.
MRIB is out of business. Has been for over a year.
Chewy, let me ask you a question. You claim MRIB is crippled by PPS and the inability to raise capital. MRIB has never spent a dime on market or advertising. What would any new capital go to?
I've heard a rumor that MRIB has hired Henry Gondorff to do this.
Chewy, this nonsense about MRIB needing capital for investment is a never ending joke. For operations? What operations? MRIB has never spent a dime on anything but themselves. No marketing, no sales force, no advertising, no investment in the company at all. Any investment they need or get is just to put more dollars in their pockets. There is no company. MRIB is now where they deserve to be exposed as a scam. If MRIB got a cash infusion what do you think they'd do with it? Barely a dime has been spent on operations in years. Whoa at business plan have you seen any different than what we've seen MRIB execute twice now?
MRIB... Out of business. No bid, no action. Just a dead shell. Just trash left. Margrit is long gone, bag of cash in hand. And I hear hilarious comments out on the web about buying MRIB out. Funny. You want to buy a company with $3.5 million in debt and more coming that can't sell $2500 of product in a quarter?
That's not a web site, it's just a bad place marker. It's an obvious DIY attempt with a Wordpress theme package. Not even a good effort. It's interesting that they also reverted to maranibrands.com versus maranispirit.com. The registrants are different with maranibrands.com registered to Ani. The lack of any content on this new piece of garbage suggests to me a lack of access to the old site and associated code. Looks like someone didn't get paid. No tickie, no washie Margrit!
But to keep up appearances she had to get something up. And what we got is the result of three hard months of construction. It's no different than any other over promise and/or exaggeration by MRIB. Second rate events, job postings, stock board innuendo, bargain basement marketing... All half assed efforts to keep up appearances and keep the stock trading, all on the cheap. It's all smoke and mirrors for a company that's been out of business for over a year now. And I'm sure we will get the fins sooner or later too. And again, another half assed effort to keep up appearances full of errors, conflict and cooked to the hilt. They're probably late now because of failure to pay the last accountant. Margrit has to find a new accountant every freakin' quarter!
You crack me up Verax. LOL. But I see no resurrection. The vodka thing has been done twice. It won't be done a third time. Just too much internet content. It would be like investing in products Bernie Madoff was selling from his NC jail cell. LOL!
Same game Verax. Insiders trying to show action and potential profit in trading MRIB. No cash other than a commission changed hands in that trade. Just went from one pocket to the other in the same pair of dirty cheating pants.
I'd say MRIB is pretty much dead. Anything sold now is strictly slot machine buying. Degenerate gamblers with no real money looking for a big bump on some false news. Just bottom feeders looking for shares at par hoping a $50 investment could double. It's also now been over a year since the last Margrit sighting. And the new CFO looks to be as fictional as the last. No fins, no license, no sales. The talk of new sales and reps was obviously all BS.
Don't be silly GMan. Margrit is running the business using telepathy. No need for phones, offices, website, etc. But seriously folks, if these conditions don't indicate that MRIB is totally shut down I don't know what one would need for confirmation. No phone? Really? Where does Costco call for all their big reorders? LOL! Who do all the new Southeast distributors call to place their orders to cover the increasing demand for Marani? Where do all the new sales reps call their orders into? OMG, what happens when the calls from Brazil, Mexico and the Dominican come in?
Hogwash. No one's taking a position in MRIB. Just insider trading setting a trap to dump some more $.0001s. Gotta' make it look like there's a market for MRIB. Common sign of the winding down and tail end of a typical pump and dump. The only one's left to buy are a handful of poor unsuspecting degenerate and naive gamblers who see what they think is easy money and an opportunity to double their money in a day. "Well, if someone can load off 10 million $.0002s, so can I so I'll buy those $.0001s!". All he will end up with is 10 million $.0001s and no bid at $.0002.

MRIB Dark or Defunct
No shares out? Have you checked the latest financials and all the MRIB committments already made? MRIB is already at 4 billion and then some if they are to meet their committments.
"Not enough" of what to run a scam? How can anyone do any homework when we have no idea what you are suggesting? There certainly is more than enough hard evidence and a myriad of absolutely confirmed lies and misrepresentations to deem MRIB a scam. What there doesn't seem to be "enough of" if anthing at all is evidence proving MRIB is not a scam! Honestly, looking only at the massive dilution iis about all the proof needed to confim MRIB was a scam.
Brazil agreement finalized sticky should be taken down. It was obviously false. Keeping it there is a travesty. We know now that it was a total lie. Why does it still exist? Let's be responsible and get rid of it.
Winner, your being silly now. Margrit can't release the MRIB financials. They didn't sell anything last quarter because they were legally barred from doing so. Confirming such would screw up selling more stock. We might have seen the last of the financials we will ever see as the stock is now at zero. That's when they stopped back in 2010. The new CFO/COO was a last ditch effort. Doubt he exists. Who would take that job? And as far as the overdraft I'd pretty much bet FTB came in and took her bank account without her knowing about it. But she kept writing checks not realizing the FTB took the cash. They do that.
How those MRIB $.0004s doing for those that "loaded up" at a price that could never go lower? Looks like MRIB being out of business has become an unwelcome reality. I don't know but if I bought 4.2 million shares at $.0004 I'd be a little upset that it only took a week to get wiped out.
No one selling proved to be a pipe dream too. Zero cost sellers bailing out now. The question is how many more are there? How many penny ante deals did Margrit do to pay her car and insurance payments? Probably a ton. Like I said she has like ten deals over the years that eventually will cot MRIB another issue of at least 4 billion shares. They're in the financials if you don't believe it. And I checked one of the media marketing services. Marani has never run a TV ad. All the stories about ads running in the Southeast were lies and I would assume stories of reps and distributors, retailers as well. Probably from Margrit herself. MRIB can't sell legally anyway so I guess it's a moot point.
I've tasted it. It's clear spirits. It's random swill. Doubt there's even skim milk or honey in it too. And now we know it's produced by a mass distiller under contract. No different than any other vodka and probably along the lines of the extremely cheap ones. I'm sure MRIB pays as little as possible for the product. Every expert that's tasted Marani calls it ordinary and nothing special other than an odd after taste. Probably from the bath tub it's made in. The awards they supposedly won were purchased. I could pee in a bottle, add Tito's and call it specialty vodka and get the same awards MRIB claimed and a plaque, bunch of pens and a set of cuff links.
Where are they selling product? They have no license or good standing in any state which disqualifies them from selling or conducting business legally. They show sales on their last financials but no delivery or payments. It's all just a matter of cooking the books. The sales are fake. Just parked product with some Armenian friend in Glendale. We know she faked the Wine Plant now. Every lie Margrit made is coming to light. Sales reps? Not a chance in the world. Fictional. MRIB or an MRIB investor took out some free job postings to make it look like something was happening.
Gold... Either you are delusional, an MRIB insider trying to preserve the stock selling market or you haven't looked at the financials. MRIB is on the hook for over 4 billion shares. How do you think Margrit is going to address that? They have written contracts. Yes, 4 billion! This was predicted over a year ago and now it's come to light as a reality. Fair value on MRIB stock is well below $.00001. That's not to mention that they're already insolvent and shut down. Investing in MRIB is like flushing $100 bills down the toilet. They can't even get the old penny bumps and flippers involved because there is no business. Everyone now knows it's dead. No web site, no phone, no employees, no business license, no liquor licenses... All the PR's in the world couldn't move this thing.
So, would you say that a company with no web site now for a couple of months and now no phone number is still in business? Secondly, if you were to take the job, would you take the job as COO/CFO of a company with no offices, web site or phone number? And who are these supposed reps and how do you call them if there is no way to do so? It seems to me that if MRIB is actually trying to sell anything other than shares of their stock, they're certainly making it as difficult as possible. And where is Margrit. We have not heard a single word from her in over a year. Maybe she should do a YouTube video to address shareholders versus some second rate internet TV spot.
And one thing I haven't mentioned. Now that we know that the Wine Plant of Eraskh web site that popped up after I questioned it's existence is an obvious fake, what are we to think of Margrit and any trust? How about no response from her to a brand of vodka "Emerald Castle" that is never mentioned in any of MRIB's operational materials? They talked about wine, brandy, beer, etc. But never a single mention of this mysterious Marani brand even though it's on shelves. Sure looks to me like a couple of real crimes have been committed here and fraud may be the least of it. Is Margrit selling product out the back door? Pretty ugly situation.
