I am 2 for 3 since last september on getting responses, no response to the last email i sent which was before this latest run.... i will add some more when we go back to camp out at .0002 x .0003, something will happen eventually.
i guarantee you the email is real judging by a couple from him in the past, the problem is he hasn't come through in the past. But in the email posted on here, John acknowledges that, and says to keep the faith. so i still think he is an honest, but optimistic guy. Do i expect news by the end of the month? not really, but i do believe he is working on it and that our time will come one of these months..
The sad part is since everyone in this latest wave of investors is whole heartedly expecting news by the end of the month, that if we don't get it we are heading straight back to .0002-.0003. I really hope he delivers this time!
before the TV shows, i think there is a true place for the website itself, ICplaces.com, because i don't know of any other websites designed for you to take a trip to almost any city and log on to see what there is to do there. It is a really awesome idea and i believe it will catch on way more than it has. As that grows in popularity, and the TV shows start airing on Punch TV, in airports, etc, the "likes" will pile in. I think the likes right now are mostly Steve's family and friends, business partners, and investors. The other major purpose of the facebook page other than as a communication tool to investors is just for fans of IC places' products, and since we are very early in being a production stage company, the popularity hasnt had a chance to catch on yet. but it will, and there will be a lot more "likes" in the future when it does.
your posts are the best, they definitely keep new investors up to date, and keep the information flowing for older investors - i did more reading about our awesome little company through April, since then, we know it is finding success thanks to Steve's hard work, and the stock is going to gradually make its way up, up, up, with the foundation he has laid, (regardless of the day to day ups and downs) so i haven't been reading as much, sort of like (for thelionwarrior) ICPA was a cub until the EZ VIP press release, then after that it could survive on its own!! haha, or maybe, a HONEY BADGER CUB! that is if the baby honey badgers are cubs....
just popped in here for a sec, read a couple posts, i'm diggin the name change! i think IC Places is more of the website side of things, and while also the company name, random people who see it on TV flipping through channels won't know what IC places means (until they get more popular as a production company). I think they are right on track!
i'm not banking on it tomorrow man, if steve is kicking back with his family i can't imagine officially releasing some of the hugest news for the company yet.. seems like something he would do while in the midst of a hectic IC Places work week. of course anythings possible though, everyone's got their own style. It would be amazing to hear something tomorrow, but i don't mind waitin one bit
Yeah dude but isnt Steve still having a little R&R time in Orlando? the next multi penny run will have to wait until he is back and ready to rock and roll!
where are people getting 1 billion from? from the A/S posted on OTCmarkets.com over a year ago? or is there some new information somewhere ?
Yeah it would be terrible not to release news soon, to watch the company's share price recover all the way to .001 and not give it a reason to stay there or above, would be not be good
awesome, great to meet someone in here with the same perception. the main thing that drew me in over a year ago now was the unique conceptual products they intend to produce, and the innovations related to solar energy. I filed a provisional patent on something solar related in 2007 and then later filed the utility patent only to find last year when the patent office finally responded that the "professionals" i paid for the initial patent search had failed me. So i was excited to invest here where success can still hopefully be found through solar energy innovations, along with their other unique concept products.
That is a great email from him, really! It reinforces John's honesty by acknowledging that things have strung along for months, but to keep the faith. I have emailed back and forth a couple of times with him since September, and have just been hanging in there giving him the benefit of the doubt, hoping that he is an honest fellow trying his best. Great to see that email! Thanks!
I'm at a really content point with ICPA - I want it to go down so I can buy more at an even better bargain, but I also want it to go up to make what I own (and all of us own) worth more! So I don't really care what it does day to day, we all know where it is heading in the long run!
The PR's that IC Places releases may be seen as short term pumps to some flippers, but to us long term investors every piece of news has MUCH more value than that! such as, when revenue from each revenue stream they announce starts showing up on quarterly and yearly financial statements!
you'r wrong it's dated Tomorrow - May 22! haha. Glad to see something new, after so long, anything is better than nothing! Thanks for sharing
i agree but we will only be able to make it so far without getting a real update from the co. thats all im saying. Were already at where we topped out on the last run but looking much stronger this time.
I always hope that with each little run, the company makes a little more money, shares get into a little bit stronger hands, and they get closer to making their awesome conceptual products into reality. with the concepts and line of work GRPS is in the potential is unlimited. hopefully this run is the one, and we actually get some news to give the share price a reason to stay higher for good! Good luck to all!
I didnt knock anything the other poster said, that im aware of...
just trying to make sure new investors have all the facts, nothing more and nothing less... the hype and the momo is awesome to have here, just trying to give new investors the whole picture.
I have been told a couple times in emails from John that news was coming out soon or "in the next few weeks" and nothing ever happened, starting last fall. There has not been any news whatsoever since then. i like to hope that he is too busy working and is just being optimistic which very well may be the case....
I just hope we hear something new from the company. All this hype, pumping, and circulating of news thats over a year old isn't getting me too excited. I bought in over a year ago because of the same news, patent, etc, only it was CURRENT back then!!! Hopefully it is finally time for us to get something new. Don't get me wrong, i have been saying here for a very long time that any solid news updates from the company and this thing will absolutely fly..
Even if John is just being optimistic in emails about news coming soon, he can't just say it to each wave of investors that comes in when the price moves up a few ticks without ever delivering. same thing happened a couple times this year already. I just hope this time it is finally for real..
well no need for anyone to worry about me selling any time soon, not selling anything until after we at least hear from the company via a PR! Hype/pumping between traders is not what i'm after here! Glad to see the movement today, hopefully something is finally on the way!
dude you are da man!!!!! very well done
thanks Rich for posting the picture and thanks Badali for posting the link! i hadn't been looking up Steve's facebook lately so its nice to have IHUB be a one stop shop to see pictures from the shark tank viewing party. I don't think we could ever see another penny stock company in our lives that has the connections that Steve does, IC Places truly is remarkable. Such a strong foundation is being laid for this company and for the revenues to pour in this year. Just be patient everyone, and buy more on any dips if you can afford it, because we all know where this is heading long term. I'm hoping for a slow steady climb from here and if for some reason we get down near or below .02 again(can't imagine going below again...) then i will be throwing everything i can at it for more shares! Otherwise just glad i could afford what i have! have a great night all!
i'm thinkin the EZ VIP deal is more important as in partnership and connections than it is revenue (which could lead to more and more revenue...), and the bulk of revenues coming in will be from the TV shows. But they have so many revenue streams coming up it is totally awesome
excellent day here, ICPA holding its ground when even multi billion dollar market cap companies are crashing!
perchy, doesn't make me feel the smartest but i just now realized that Clear Channel is a well established public company, symbol CCO. I was already really excited but now...That much more! heading to work now, have a great day!
I agree that anything can happen any time in penny/sub penny stocks - this thing could look like it is truly dying and they could release a PR and make it go nuts. But i think it will be down here for a while (hopefully not forever...) and i honestly would expect it to go to the .001's first. That seems like where companies that haven't truly died go to hang out until they can make something positive happen. the ones that are really dying seem to go to .0005 and below.
I expect it to go between .001-.002 because from the Q filing we basically went from a company that had something going on to a company with nothing, so anything is possible now and it is a very volatile time. In the Q they basically said, oh hey we only ever sold to 1 customer, and they aren't buying anymore....
they need to give us something to assure us that the company is Real..... starting to wonder if it is "patience" or "denial" here!!
Yeah it is absolutely awful. No way to see it coming, i invested some here because this seemed like a real established company, a safe investment as far as penny/sub penny stocks. They had decent revenues, etc. Then suddenly we get this latest Q filing that says, O By the way, those revenues were a one time thing!! This quarter we have NOTHING!
Steve must have read some of our genuine posts of excitement and to keep us from being sad when we watch shark tank Friday, had to let us know the shark tank update was shot before the IC Places/EZ VIP partnership. Darn!!!
I didnt really consider that because i figured they could add a short clip to it even if the rest of it had been shot... that is too bad. If there was time we definitely would have been mentioned, because our mentioning would have provided a more accurate update on the happenings of EZ VIP.
But like Steve said, seeing EZ VIP's success outlined on TV is still very positive for us since we have a close partnership.
Wouldn't that have been nice! Yeah i too did not want to sell and risk chasing, the shares are too precious. It was tough to see our portfolios worth a lot more over .05s and then come down some, but I got over it quickly. If you look at it overall how the stock is behaving it looks very, very healthy now, i mean that stairway to heaven we were on at .058 looked insane, just a vertical line when you looked at a 3 month chart, it made me very uneasy but i still didn't want to sell anything because I figured ICPA is blazing its own trail in uncharted territory, making it impossible to predict. I'm thinking posting has calmed down here because our transition from sub penny to penny land is over and the volatility is gone (relative to what it was), so the atmosphere here is more relaxed now. Everyone's sleeping good at night and letting Steve do his thing. Slow and steady is the way to go.
For Shark Tank I believe there is a much better chance that IC Places' partnership will be mentioned than not. It is not Steve's style to just give this stuff away like on Facebook when people ask. How can they ask and not feel sort of silly doing so. Steve is all about these perfectly executed hints and surprises. His hint that "you should watch it to see who we partnered with" is pretty significant, because everyone has already seen who we partnered with in the original EZ VIP shark tank episode. So I believe there will be more to be seen this time and expect the stock to get a little wild again here soon. I mean look at the original countdown to the EZ VIP press release, the countdown was going on for weeks with little activity with the stock and then went totally nuts with about 2 days left. Reminds me of now, little activity, just staying solid in the .03's, until .....???
I hope you're right! I still think that going from 300K in revenues in a quarter to 4K revenues in a quarter warrants the PPS falling further before any sort of bounce!
I'll buy more in the .002's otherwise if you are right will be hapy to see my original investment come back a little...
This can be a terrifying situation here, where if the PPS falls much further along comes a billion more authorized shares, and a lower and lower PPS, . But didn't the 10Q say something about a funding agreement they have where they couldn't touch the share structure until summer? (something about 2 years after a date in summer 2010) so we know we are safe for now, but unless the PPS rebounds, who knows how long we are really safe.
WOW not good, not only does the company have $4,414 in sales for the first quarter 2012 compared with $312,619 for the first quarter in 2011, but they are paying the CEO over a million dollars!
On January 4, 2012, the Company issued the following shares of restricted common stock:
·
Melvin W. Coles, Chairman and President, received 31,467,500 shares for services. This issuance was considered compensation of $1,101,363 and recorded as an expense during the three months ended March 31, 2012.
At least later on they try to explain that the CEO is basically the company and that he is being reimbursed for company related expendatures, but still, HPCS has nothing to show for the expenditures.
UGHHH not looking good, i have owned some here since January, and can say right now that I am not proud! Did anyone get a single good thing out of the filing, or is it time to call it a loss? I guess the only good thing is they did choose to share some information with us even though it was terrible information?
sure they will be wrong, the ones that posted the same stuff about the .01's disappeared.... a new wave of the same people will be in here in the .07's.... the .12's......etc
I AM FLIPPING OUT WITH EXCITEMENT....ALL I WAS WAITING ON WAS SOME SIGN THAT THE SHARK TANK VIEWING PARTY WAS REAL AND NOT JUST THROWN IN AS AN IDEA/CONCEPT TO GO ALONG WITH THE EZ VIP PRESS RELEASE !! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Just saw the message on FB about steve seeing if he can invite some shareholders to the shark tank viewing party! That is what i was waiting for, him to follow up to let everyone know it is REAL! i couldn't make it anyways although it would have been awesome, but the fact that Steve followed up about it is what counts. Steve's da man!! cheers to Steve!
Anyone watch shark tank last night? i think Kevin O'leary's quote is one of my new favorite quotes. something like: "i like to think of my money like little soldiers. Go out and do battle, and bring home prisoners." FRICKIN HILARIOUS
Nice! Thought it was a great day too! the way i see it, some who bought in at lows earlier this week expecting another Friday morning news release bailed out this morning, and good riddance to em!
Guys, enough with all this golden cross talk - this is what we really have here, ICPA is a Honey Badger Stock:
Definition of 'Honey Badger Stock Market'
A play on an Internet meme of 2011 made to relate to the stock market. The honey badger stock market is a stock market which continually gains in value and pushes past any technical or economic indicators that suggest that the stock market should not be performing as well as it is.
"The honey badger stock market don't care."

Hahaha.
From what you are saying, you are analyzing performance on an instantaneous basis and not long term. Given that would you say you at least agree that the PPS is going to be trending up in the long term, due to recently leaving the "development" stage and entering the "production" stage, with deals signed for millions in revenue coming in later this year?
Great day here all! after seeing on IC Places facebook page various people posting about a lot of negativity on the IHUB board i hadn't been reading lately. Hopefully there is a lot more positive going around here now!
Finally a calm, green day here. It seems like by next Friday, a massive spike in PPS would have to take place if we are going to be on ABC on Shark Tank. What worries me though is that Steve did not follow up about the Shark Tank Viewing Party anymore lately. It would have been extremely effective to officially invite shareholders either on Facebook or PR by providing lots of details, name the exact time and location, name some nearby hotels for people to stay at, etc. Please anyone correct me if I'm wrong if Steve provided more information to people who responded on Facebook telling him they were interested in going to the party.
Regardless of what happens with that, i am very proud to be a part of this incredible company.
I think Perchy hacked the IC Places facebook page and posted a DD there!!! (jk) .... awesomeness
Awesome - only thing is didnt Steve mention in the STT interview that the party was being moved to Florida and not New York?
For the Phiefer fellow - can't imagine IC Places not being mentioned in the shark tank episode when they are having a shark tank viewing party! Why have the party if there was going to be no mention of IC PLaces?
Holy smokes, my post from last night was deleted! there was not a single thing in there that should have been deleted WTF! Wow, i always assumed they had some sort of a reason for deleting posts. I guess I was wrong.
Here it is, lets see if whoever is in charge of deleting posts is feeling any more reasonable this morning:
you all are nuts! everyone is still here. today was great, those that care about the company got more phenomenal news this morning. those that dont care about the company and are here to get in and out within a couple of days were disappointed that the PPS did not spike a few pennies upward in one morning. I for one do not understand how even the shortest of short term stock holders could sell before the EZ VIP shark tank update on May 18th. HOW? i don't get it. With everything going on for IC Places, why would anyone sell before one of the first big milestones, being on ABC for the shark tank update?
I will be sitting on my couch watching the episode of Shark Tank wearing my red IC Places T Shirt completely drunk and loving life. 2 weeks away. A lot of the longs probably arent posting right now because they are either limited to 1 post a day or know that this emergence in PPS is going to be turbulent and is not worth checking in to the forum until things settle down as the true value of ICPA is realized. As the PPS stabilizes, flippers will become exhausted, and we will be back on to our steady climb. The PPS was much more stable before any dips came along and gave flippers any opportunities for ups and downs. The PPS seemed to make some great stabilization today. With all of the developments going on we wont see the 0.03's anymore soon enough. deleted!
thanks man, if it goes to .002 or below i will be back in for sure. Otherwise i hope it keeps going up for you, and for all of the longs that I saw in here on the forum throughout the recent months as i read on occasion.
It was tough to see it build up strongly to .0018 before the last conference call in early April and then slowly meander down to .0007 earlier this week. Even tougher for investors that have been here a really long time. I hope it not only builds up to a decent PPS before this new conference (think it was announced as May 17?) but that the conference itself is phenomenal and that then I find that I am kicking myself.
Otherwise I hope it dips down a little bit before the conference, that I get back in, and that the conference is phenomenal.....
