I sure hope so flemdog33. In August 2007 Bell Buckle was being sold in over 2400 hundred grocery stores. Since the 7/31/07 pr Bell Buckle has added Wholefoods adding another 200 locations. Wholefoods then aquired Wild Oats chain and after selling off some locations and closing others still gained about 70 locations....
That does not include internet sales or oversea's sales, Walmart (or Tree of Life?)
Bell Buckle owns and operates at least three facilties, the old Bell Buckle location, the new production facilities, and Bainbridge Foods facilities, product and employees.
In addition the new Tennessee production facility grounds hold room for expansion....
Bell Buckle seems to be a true success story, but this continued silence is killing us (pps and shareholders investment value).
Maybe in this case silence is golden, but in pinkyland extended silence from management rarely signals all is well or ends well. They need to give us a break methinks.
The longer the silence extends, the lower we will go (again) I fear. That said I dont believe that todays pps will have any relevence in six months time if they ever tell us (share information) anything designed to bolster pps and shareholder value not related to selling more stock. Until that happens we are at the mercy and whims of MM's.
JMHO -P.
I would have to agree there beetle. Although Im long and dont expect much to happen for the next month, rvgd management can properly update shareholders and answer a few questions that must be bouncing around in peoples heads.
Company debt load
Cash burn rate (money has got to come from somewhere to pay qualified staff.
Current and future share structure status - what are plans for the future? No need for selling additional shares? Possible share buyback? RS?
HOw many cars are has the company sold to date? The factory can show pictures of being filled with cars and has done so for a good while. What is happening with them?
How is the company doing on delivery times? Is the company screwing up and not delivering as promised? Is the company providing evidence that they can deliver quality work on dates promised?
I dont know if anyone else wants answers from management but I for one would not mind. Perhaps I missed the posts or announcements.
Again not a deal breaker for me, but am wondering what happens to all the cars we continually see in pictures. The shop has been filled with cars since I first started following this company. If there are more sales happening why dont we know about it.
Truly, I hope it does not see triple zeros but without "meaty" pr's its bound to happen all too soon.
JMHO. - P.
I dont wanna throw anymore money at this company even at .0001 or .0002 but what if he actually starts producing and we get a run? Seems if I want to make some money back from this company another purchase is inevitable. My last buy was at .0008 but it was before second wave of dilution - the biggie. Hmmmmmm...
Fool me once - shame on you, fool me twice? Decisions, decisions...
Some of that news concerns Whole Foods which recently won its case aquiring Wild Oats Stores. Whole Foods had about 200 retail outlets before the 565M aquisition. After acquisition, Whole Foods sold off some stores and closed others, resulting in an overall gain of about 60 stores.
So looking at Walmart, Tree of Life, and Wholefoods, the future does seem bright enough I may have to purchase some shades as sales/distribution grows by leaps and bounds.
GLTA - P.
Perhaps in two or three months I will sell you MY shares. Of course I will expect about ten times the current pps. Until then and good luck with your other stocks and hope you fare well.

I think dvfi shareholders are very very lucky the cusip number was not lost and dvfi is still in the game. Best give ole Ed time to sort out the considerable mess the company is currently in.
It will still take some time to organize things and have a happening game plan and some progress. For me Im happy just to get a real report on current status - what we own and dont own, sources of income,cash flow(if any), update status of previous relationships and progress (hydroslotting, N2Vision, WWNG, TYEG). Things might not be so bad as previously thought, but in reality we have not in two years had a clear and honest accounting or report on project(s) status.
Im quite sure that ED did indeed have a pr ready within the timeframe he gave, and if he had to change it several times because of new information so be it.
From all accounts I believe dvfi shareholders just narrowly missed the axe, and I for one am glad we have another shot at making things work.
As far as the company dvfi is concerned, I think it would be hard to find a more hardcore and dedicated shareholder base who is willing to work with management and plans (support).
For Ed, we just want an honest and hardworking CEO who is into growing the company into the business of selling oil and gas, not shares for a source of income.
It should be fairly obvious that shareholders will have to take a shot to the chin in regards to share structure at some point to get the company back in the game and up and running.
Ed, if you are going to visit the boards often,then you gotta get to know the posters and which ones to ignore (comments). There are some here who seem to have a bi-polar disorder happy one day and a foul mood and post the next. For many here it is our second or third year with dvfi, and we have not been treated well at all - were all a little angry and frustrated.
After being in the dark so long, full transparency is needed and wanted, getting a handle on share structure, and punishing those who cheated us ($$$recovery from crooks). If not too much trouble we also want the oil and gas pumped from the ground (leases) we have, not acquire more debt and idle wells - at least me anyway.
So Ed, good luck to you, we are a pretty tough crowd to work with right now.

According to email received today from Brandon the OS is close to 1B shares not counting restricted. 900,877,885 from updated shareholder list....
Already in..Enjoy article GTM: http://www.kitcarmag.com/featuredvehicles/0805kc_henry_renauds_ffr_gtm_mulsanne/index.html
You will get your wish with Kit Car Mag this month - feature article GTM Supercar.....
P.
Finally got my rvgd.When those GTM Supercar's hit the road ka-ching. Wont be able to make them fast enough. Best I'll be able to do is pick up one in kit form but that still be sweet. P.
Got my shares at .0012 and glad to be aboard finally. P.
Just put small order in at .0011 if someone would like to fill it. - P.
Woulda coulda shoulda LOL. Money burns a hole in my pocket and if I had more to invest I'd probly be buying here today also.
Way I see it though is that its about time for a new short term high and next week or so you will be telling yourself you were glad to get in lower...
Dont worry be happy as they say. Fencesitters will be paying more next week.
Hi Rookie! Darn right Im holdin'. Jumped in a little early at .0036 a good while back and didnt get mad at the nice dip down to .002ish - all part of the game. Hoping like hell we might have a company with no NEED to sell anymore shares (at least for a while and then for no debt expansion).
In early on a nice company with long term sustainable sales that from all accounts is growing nicely with measureable monthly sales increases. Its been reported on the board that conversation with a company employee indicates we are profitable. Whats not to like?
Nice to have a no brainer in the portfolio.
Wallmart and Tree of Life are both huge and sales for these giants is just in its infancy. If the company can maintain a steady supply (source fresh produce) sales will be snowballing over the next few years with company expansion into other areas of the country in order to secure fresh supplies and reduce delivery times and costs.
New offering OOIL - interesting for sure....will wait for it to get romped and stomped.
New tech tfzp doing well and off recent lows, cypw a little slower but should eventually go up with announced sales.cypw has nice potential to pay off huge but not for a while.
BLLB looking good though patience is required, RVGD looks nice an opp at .0012 patience also required for this one.
SHMM things that make ya go hmmmmm?
PHGI -still puking on that purchase, may change but not much confidence now. Biodiesel plant firing up should change current holding pattern.
DVFI - entire former management scammed investors, ihubbers fighting for control of company(some major bagholders there, under 700M float after wrnw returned shares.
sstp and usse seems lackluster but a LOT is happening that is not finding it way out by pr...when these two eventually click watch out.
This shareholder aint gonna do nothing but wait for a turnaround with little hope. Immediately dumped 90% of shares at a SLIGHT loss the moment dilution was announced on this board. I should have sold every share in retrospect.
Time to accept responsibility for your own lack of actions in preserving capital which in pinkyland is paramount to survival.
I'd rather shake off a loss of profit than a loss of capital. Time to suck it up and move on to something more profitable.
So is DVFI but still folks expect (or fervently hope) it to get up and run.
SLJB bagholders who want to join lawsuit or get details of...
email this guy: chairmn.mao@gmail.com
The cost is reasonable about 300.00 you fill out a questionaire, send it to lawyer and wait.
popcorn and mydurango - I have passed on your ihub name to the person in charge, but but email them anyway and request forms.
UHCR does check out very nice -thanx! - P.
If the AS remains at 1B than for sure Penny TA share calculating system hasnt hit this one, but take a look at the suspicious volume in Feb. Over 2B shares traded, over 400M in one day?
That said even the 1B AS fully maxed out aint too bad at todays pps. From all accounts the money was put to good use and into assets avoiding a debt load. Strong sales and expanding monthly.
Be great if someone was to go visit our new Bell Buckle production facilities, talk to a few production/shipping employee's. A few pics's here and there would not hurt.
Expecting a short little dip early this week and then back up to base a little higher. My feelings wont be hurt if it goes straight up though LOL!
P.
OT:Waverider:
Think I remember you saying you lost a boatload on sljb. There is a class action happening to recover. If interested drop by the "fishin hole" and I'll provide details. If successful we may get up four or five times our loss.
Dont know if anything like that will help dvfi, but we got to try I guess.
P.
Hi Jan, apparently you and I the last to complete sljb legal forms and send to lawyer. Just faxed mine so we should be good to go.
P.
avdave: I said production NEWS, not production. Value and pps are two different animals here. HOw do companies with no assets whatsoever run up and down?
There are many goverment grants, incentives and tax breaks as well as "green" credits that can come into play here....please provide instances of biomass to biodiesel companies (USA) that do not take advantage of this.
Also dont forget that BB has a few more irons in the fire. Namely, using other companies biodiesel plants to generate pure profit.
In just another month or so, phgi could have a total of three (or more) biodiesel plants producing product for phgi. BB having solved the feedstock problem is a stumbling block many other companies have not solved. Should not be too hard for you to find a few bankrupt biodiesel companies in recent news.
Another point in favor of phgi is that it could be considered second generation in the sense that it does not use food crops but agricultural waste. Another point to consider is that off spec (spoiled) soybeans still retain oil content while the price per bushel is less than half of food grade soybeans......
Another point is that phgi may or may not be investigating algae technology for future plans....
Another point is that phgi is investigating other alternative non-food crops (jatropha plants), working with Clemson University and another company also venturing into biodiesel production...
Another point to consider is that the companies phgi is in negotiations with to produce phgi biodiesel are prime candidates for possible mergers or buyout. A large percentage of biodiesel plants have already shut down or face the threat of...
Another point is that the goldmine might not turn out to be worthless and hold significant quantities of gold that can be mined profitably with todays gold prices. Having a hundred million worth of gold in the ground or on top (tailings)in reserves.....
Its pretty simple avdave, if ya dont believe the pps is gonna go up, dont waste your time but sell and move on. If your holding a loss (like most of us)and holding on in hopes of a pps recovery, drop the negativity or least dont post it so vehemently.
My way of thinking here is that 90% of my investment is gone, and Im hoping it will recover and hit .002 or .003 sometime in the next six months. With that in mind I will try not to bash and attempt to further devalue my investment.
Lets just see what pps does when production news finally shows (if it does). Hoping for a run like amhd.
Better quiz. Fully maxed at 5B with current pps of .0002 what is the marker cap for a company with a soon to be producing biodiesel plant (small scale) AND a soon to be producing goldmine? An even mil?
Only question ya gotta ask yourself right now is if the company assets will be worth a couple million bucks in a short while? (one to three months).
We can badmouth the company or BB all we want but that would be about the simplest analysis for buying or selling right now. Current market cap - one half mil. will it be much more once producing biodiesel and making sales.
So even if they dump the other half of 5B it ain't all that bad if your averaged at .0001-0002.
Having said that I gotta wonder if the AS will double again but really see no reason for a reverse at this point. Be nice if shareholders were clued in a little more but perhaps the fat lady is aways off yet in terms of singing.
OK flames welcome. P.
Shakerzzz, ASK being slapped BLLB,under 700M OS no immediate plans for dilution, think maybe MM's hungry for shares. Looking good for rest of week, blast off with a good pr.
P.
Time to take a GOOD look at BLLB chart. Seems like it has captured a lot of attention popping up on scans here and there.
I have been waiting patiently for this one.
BDRR who all caught that move from recent .003? Never guessed it would go that low but look at the recent move(s).
RVGD - still on Penns shopping/wish list.
PHGI - boy did I get stomped on that one, massive dilution.
- ON THE PLUS side though, the biodiesel plant is much closer to producing and not much more wait if all permits in place,
- goldmine permitting is all completed, phgi put out they are hiring miners for their gold mining operation. Last buy of phgi was at .008 and I have avoided throwing any more money at it. So far it looks like it is cellar boxed right smartly,and few companies escape this. However, does Beebe have something up his sleeve with that former SEC guy aboard? hmmmm. phgi by all accounts seems ready to go forward with biz plan and not backing down on goals.
Thanks for everyones posting, nice to see a few still visit!
P.
daily range has contracted again and with news coming Im betting a nice little spike up next week.
realnews: no lack of consistency and pattern? Maybe for the company but not pinks as a general rule. Look at the market and not the company.
As I said before, the pps does not concern me as much as the AS increasing. One pr with nice numbers would do it,but when looking at the numbers, try to think what your local 7-11 takes in during a quarter.
Perhaps the reason no numbers coming out is because the numbers kinda suck for a company doing the business they have stated....
When a company uplists to a better exchange, it is usually preceded by a pr announcing a reputable accounting firm and a timeline. No solid promises made in pr.
According to a poster who supposedly spoke to a company rep, the company has enough cash flow and profit not to dilute for the time being. I'd feel a lot better if something like that was pr'd rather than coming from a single poster.
Rememeber they have solid sales and contracts. Thats a big plus in the pinkie world. However the silence from a pinkie company is almost NEVER good for shareholders...indicates some hanky panky going on somewhere.
A pinkie company has no use for shareholders other than to use to raise money for operations - thats reality and something one should never forget. JMHO - P.
Wow - lawsuit, bounced check... Thus our shareholder journey into financial oblivion and ruin began. 190 grand is how many shares? And here the man is advertising to hire gold miners with no gold mining equipment set up yet? Hey wheres my diesel already?
This is an expensive show to follow but I've already bought the ticket and the show - is it just starting or all over with? I'm not quite sure.
Nothin to do but wait to hear about our shipments of diesel and truckloads of gold dust LOL.
spec - I like how JR grabbed kudo's for coining the term Vertroleum when everyone knows it was Parson....
My point was is that with our SEC guy aboard, we should have been able to use his expertise to avoid toxic financing and probly why he was brought aboard in the first place.
I loved the post on "cellar boxing" yesterday, and it did occur to me that with this guy aboard, it just might be possible to play the MM's instead of them playing us. If there was a way to turn the tables on MM boxing, this guy would know how to do it.
Wouldnt it be funny if 3B shares went to the new Canadian entity and a Northern biz plan or alliance revealed, the goldmine started to happen, the Opp plant fires up, and BB scores production with the two other biodiesel plants and exports product?
Over the past few months for some strange reason, I have gotten the feeling we might be headed to some sort of merger, alliance, or JV. Dont know why the thought keeps resurfacing but it does. A friend with deep pockets could really help.
If Im wrong this ball of yarn will just unravel and vanish. There has just been too much work done and in progress for this to happen IMHO. So it comes down to BB is scamming us or trying to scam MM's.
From all appearances currently it appears that WE are the ones who have been scammed, but a little voice somewhere inside is fighting that notion against common sense and experience. Something is not adding up here and its bugging me.
Well, I've already burned up my daily three posts. I figure if I keep it to three, I'll make less of an ass of myself.
GLTA - P.
BLLB monthly sales is what??? A poster yesterday who claims to have gotten and shared info said the company will fund any future expansion from current profits. Also said if we were selling 3-5 M in sales this year or next we could go to .10 pr share.
So would it be safe to assume the company employs at least 75 people full time? Is that reasonable? 229 products under five brand names in how many stores? Not saying Im a brainiac or anything but lets take a look at what 75 full time employees including the Bell Buckle family, administration support, manufacturing, warehousing, shipping at lets say a salary of just $2000.00 per month each.
75 times $2000. monthly is 150,000 per month or 1.8M in salaries. Seems to me if the company is pulling enough to post profits we are already doing over 5M per year in sales?
Someone more familiar with food production and sales of product should be able to give us a rough amount for current monthly sales?
Just inviting discussion and speculation while waiting for a pr.
Also, maybe a little speculation on what hard asset value is worth per share, buildings, land, manufacturing equipment, warehousing equipment, trucks etc.
have a little fun today mulling this over. I have no idea on what profit margins would be on these products, but the general idea is that our shares are hugely undervalued. But how much?
Have fun. Penn.
Slight of hand by BB....
Questions for board, the latest mining update as I read it is that the company has the go ahead to install mining equipment and commence operations. Could someone fill me in on the mine specifics namely is it tailings reclamation only or hardrock or a combination? and two, anyone have the old valuation reports? It appears to me we are now also in the gold mining biz whether we like it or not?
Two: Read over the January 9 pr on new transfer agent handling stock transfer to Perihelion Canada. The way the January pr reads is a portion of stock from USA operations is transferred to the newly formed Canadian entity? If so, perhaps would the recent increase in AS have something to do with the January 9 pr?
If indeed the USA phgi has to transfer a portion of stock to the new Canadian entity, there is a good chance that is what the increase is for? Perhaps we have new Canadian deal going down soon with 2.5 B transferred from parent company?
Lastly, this new fella that used to work for SEC. did BB really need him just to perform death spiral financing? That would be a very poor use of his knowledge and experience. Might be something else going on here?
Things that make ya go hmmmmmmm?? Seems to me the company is going forward and now is a not a good time to chop investors legs off at the knees which by all accounts is happening right now. Hoping there is something else up his sleeve other than just F****** us over.
How did I first get into PHGI? Well, I didnt have a choice, as I was reversed into phgi at 10,000 to one. Vision works or sumthing like that. Geez. BB sure fooled me by share reduction efforts and a good yarn - gaining my trust. By all accounts it appear Im about to get reversed outta phgi.
Luckily I still have a few other stocks in the basket. GLTA today. - Penn.
PQL - 5B Authorized now??? Please for the love of God tell me this is a joke? Sheeet. This amounts to outright thievery. Scuse me for rest of day, I will be puking.
I have never owned a stock worth less than .0001 but guess what?
Does anyone here give a crap about the goldmine??? My way of thinking its just cause for more dilution (moneypit)with no payback for a lonnng time if at all. Hope he finds a Goldmine JV partner to cover costs. Otherwise its just a tool to dilute.
Hillbilly radio stations on the other hand can be a goldmine LOL.
How many millions of shares does each pr cost?
On the positive, the pr announcing a pr did manage to temporarily double the price and did it fairly quickly too. Seeing how .0003 seems to be the bottom Im thinking real hard about the double down.
Who knows maybe one of these pr's will be worth something to pps.
hey polliboy. Whats not positive about saying its a solid company with solid products and sales and its going to pennyland?
So,we on bllb must politely blow smoke up each others wazoo and constantly tell each other how smart we are for speculating in bllb? Must we all suscribe to flowery gibberish and not have independent thought and opinions?
Although I've had to read what seems like hundreds of your posts I dont believe Ive commented on them? I seem to remember someone taking a few pokes at bllb trying to get the price below .002 suggesting we all conspire to drive it down to .0017 where you identified a gap? C'mon now polly....
I havent bashed the stock, I havent pumped the stock. I have promoted it on my board and will continue to do so until I change my mind about it.
If anyone has an agenda it would be those with many millions of shares. I can see where those folks might only want flowery praise and no realism. They might also be the ones that on a run yell "To da mooonnnnnn!" while pounding the helloutta the sell button.
Anyone who gets offended by someone posting its wise to take profits where you find them in pinkyland...
Dont worry. I dont post here more than once a month or so. I cant do all that much damage LOL.
Hey an uptick to .0029
Go bllb.
Hey real news. I've no doubt you're having a problem understanding the logic, but given enuff time you will no doubt figure it out.
Objective of my post(s) was as stated. Pennies should come on good numbers, and simple advice was given - dont get too greedy.
This is pinkyland and the AS is almost maxed. Companies sell stock to further progress especially in pinkyland when starting out. My opinion of the company hasnt changed, seems to be a solid company with solid product and sales. When the price goes up substantially, selling shares to raise money is way more attractive and a more logical time to do it (less dilution).
Whats not to understand? While some of you are happy blowing smoke up each others wazoo with wild price predictions, I simply reminded some not to get greedy and take profits as they come before disapearing. Never mind the fact that those in on triple zero purchases are sitting on a multi-bagger already.
Everyones investment strategy is different, but in pinkyland it hardly ever pays to pass up good profits when they present themselves.
If you believe the company will never raise the AS again sometime, you need your head examined. Thats about as much DD, proof and links your gonna get from me now or at anytime. Feel free to comment on this post but dont expect a reply again.
Even Penn sez ouch. I hear its about 1500.00 to release a pr. Was it a waste? The first pr sounded to me like we had a very good announcement, and BB was saying hey buy before tomorrow or you will have to chase. Glad I didnt. The folks selling into the pr made out allright though. They should be able to buy back at discounted rates today.
I find the second pr says plenty without telling us anything. The biodiesel production is delayed without giving further details, the gold mine is delayed without further details, yes we are being diluted by two separate parties. What else...tuff nuggies about the pps. All in all an indirect way to tell us the biodiesel plant not opening as promised - like we didnt guess that already. Well, nothing much for anyone to do but wait and see if the Opp plant opens this month.
more of an example of realism. The company pumped the hell out of itself while not giving any numbers to those HUGE sales announced in numerous pr's leading up to this, all the while selling, selling, selling.
What kind of monthly sales do you figure the company is doing with all those announced deals? The next AS increase will most likely be 2B. Currently only 700M shares @ .002 - .003 the company should be doing a million a month in sales or more - thats too much money to leave on the table.
