I'm ready! How 'bout we sing a little???
Never met a stock that makes me feel the way that you do
(you're alright)
Whenever I'm asked who makes my dreams real, I say that you do
(you're outta sight)
So, fee-fi-fo-fum
Look out baby, 'cause here I come.
Has anyone heard anything at all directly from Berge?
OP, why do you say "no news until Wed"??? Did I miss something? I am heavily invested here, at least for MY comfort level, and I was really hoping to see something first thing Monday Morning.
If anyone has heard anything from Berge, please PM me. I'm nervous and don't want to bail out but I don't want to lose this money either.... I'm just a small guy trying to get started.
Charlie
I just cracked our ceiling and bought 1 mil @ 6. Soon enough that will become dirt cheap.
didn't Berge say that he works while waiting in airports and on the plane??
I bet the draft for the PR is already written!!
I was going to try for some more 4's this morning, but I just could not BID sit when we are waiting for the best news this company has ever seen to hit at any minute. So I topped off my tank with another half million shares @5 which brings my total up to 5 million. Not bad for a guy that doesn't make a whole lot of money. This could get me started in changing my life in a positive way.
If you are BID-sitting, good luck to you and keep your hands on yer pants or you may have to run with 'em down!

While I was scracthin' me head thinkin' 'bout this, it dipped to 4!!!
I got me a million more at 4!
Oh what a cracker! thanks Jonecool for getting me moving on this one!!
Charlie
Thanks Jonecool, I needed to hear that and it makes total sense to me! Now I'm thinking about selling some from another stock just to pad this one a little more.....
Charlie
I am VERY surprised that more people aren't buying right now, BEFORE the big news hits???? I guess they have some good shoes..... ready, set, RUN AFTER THAT STOCK!
This is better entertainment than most TV shows.
Charlie
That was a pretty sick game to pull this down to 3 right at the open! $75 trade to scare us all with, and it's not even Halloween yet!
Charlie
If this is a 3 day meeting, and if I'm hearing this from you then yes, I believe it, then this isn't a thumbs up or thumbs down kind of meeting! This is a "let's hammer out the details" kind of meeting!
It's gotta be GOOD NEWS!
Wouldn't it be a kick in the pants if Berge released a PR today?? What if he already wrote a PR on his laptop so it's already waiting there. He signs the deal and then releases a PR announcing it.
That would leave the BID-sitters and shorts with their pants down trying to run to catch up with us! Ha! What fun this could be!!
Charlie
I think that people that are complaining about dilution haven't thought about the bigger picture and the cost involved. Sure, I was disappointed when I learned that a stock I own had to dilute.... but then....
Think of what it costs to produce a few hundred rings and the size of the facility and number of manufacturing employees. Now try to increase that to 200,000 rings. That's quite a difference and requires lots of cash to pull it off!
40,000 stores each with a Bergio shelf would require at least 30 pieces of jewelry each, wouldn't they? and to keep Amazon and ShopNBC stocked.... how much would all that cost? We wouldn't want them to commit to selling our stuff and then have them wait for it and only show an empty shelf now would we?
Good things are a comin'
Charlie
Buy some 8's and I will! lol
now I'm a Berge salesman!
Charlie
Linkvest - TY. So, to "follow" someone is the same as marking them. ok, I got it now.
Hey! Someone is nibbling at the 8's! they ate an eight!
How do you member mark someone and what does that mean? How do I check my member marks to see who has marked me? Can I do that on a free account?
TIA
Charlie
I LOVE being *right* for a change! Just a couple big hits on the ASK and look what happened to the 7's..... 8's are next!
Batter-up! grab the big bat boys!!
Charlie
It's possible Berge could drop a PR right now BEFORE he heads out to the airport. Anything could happen at this point. They could BOTH be anxious to close this deal and do it via conference call and e-mail signatures. Or he could announce something totally different that none of us saw coming.
There is no urgency to BUY right this minute or hour. With 9 million on the ASK, IMO people tend to sit and wait to see if they can get a better deal before pulling the trigger.
Of course, one or two big buys and those 7's could be gone quick! It is dangerous to wait if you believe what's going to happen is really happening - and I do believe!
GO BRGO!
Charlie
etrade is showing NEWS TODAY but I don't understand it.
It's showing a PR for Argent Bank has a PR for BRGO, but Bergio isn't mentioned in the PR???

I am SO GLAD I got my "cracker" (shares @ 4) on Friday morning!
I just couldn't pass up half a million shares for only 200 bucks! That brings my total to 3.5 million shares. *IF* this puppy goes to 2 cents then that will make me... a very happy guy!
I know, I know, it would be fantastically rare and almost unheard of for a stock this low to recover to that level unless there is some fantastically rare and almost unheard of news to push it up there, right?
hmmmmm we all know what Berge has cookin' up in the kitchen.... It's gonna be fantastic!
Just look at all the new eyes on this stock now that we've had a 300+ million volume day with a 40% gain. They've had all weekend to consider buying on Monday morning. They'd better grab what they can quick before we see more huge gains. That can happen really quick, all in the first few minutes!
It's great entertainment to watch my account value grow!
Charlie
OK Berge, I got my cracker. Now you've got my money. Please don't let me down! I'm hoping you'll prove all the negative people wrong and make me a little money in the process.
Charlie
I can't stand it!! I've already got more invested in this than common sense says I should have. But geez... 4's??? Should **I** get a cracker too??
Let me check my funds..... hmmmmm I'm thinkin' 'bout it!
Charlie
Anyone care to guess how many shares they (asher) have left to sell? When will we know when it's over?
I hope that someone here got the early Christmas present of those 5's....
I did a search in Yahoo on Bergio and came up with this....
http://www.lewisjeweler.com/designers/bergio-diamonds.html
I don't see a date for when this came out and don't know if it's been posted before or not. It says some very positive things about Berge.
quote:
Bergio is also an innovator in marketing, creating a distinct image for the Bergio brand. A spectacular campaign, which will be announced soon, is slated to run in Town & Country in 2005, and is dedicated to strengthening the real and growing bond between Bergio and the customer.
Thanks to substantial advertising in both trade and consumer magazines, an increasingly strong Internet presence, and the force of Abajian’s own warm, enthusiastic and colorful personality, the Bergio name is quickly becoming one of the few jewelry lines with instant name recognition. What’s in a name? At Bergio, everything you want.
********************
ok, I see a 2005 date in this article so I guess it's pretty old.
Let's hope we get a PR today so we'll have something fresh to chat about!
GO BRGO
Charlie
7's are HERE! Sweet 7's!! How long will they last before the great 8's arrive?
GO BRGO!
I wonder how many of these BUYs are new Russian investors that got in after meeting Berge?
When was the last time we went this far into the day without even ONE sell order - all BUYS?
Lookin' good in this neighborhood!
GO BRGO!
Charlie
TY Krony. I appreciate the info. Let's have a great week!
I wonder if we'll see 7's today? What a good day this is for a PR!
That would be SO NICE to see happen! I would actually get up off the couch and happy dance around the room. It may not count as exercise, but it would be a start. :)
GO EPGL!
Chum for the WHALE!
Charlie
It looks like you've got all day to 'add a few'.
No volume, no chatter, nothin'.
I just took out the rest of the .0269's with a small 5k buy.
Feeling better about this stock and company all the time!
Looking forward to more news soon!
Charlie
I thought we were supposed to have a major sell-off of hundreds of millions of shares??? I guess that nothin' is for sure anymore!
Just fine by me. Let 'em hold for a higher price like the rest of us.
A big THANK YOU to Krony for writing out the CC into text form so that people like me can read it instead of downloading and listening to it. It was nice to read about all those positive comments from Berge.
And BTW, I also "liked" the Facebook page. Just once.
Charlie
That's what I'm thinking about... "closer to SEC filings"
wasn't it just a couple weeks ago they said it would be within 30 - 45 days? Would that put it sometime after Sept 15th??
I wonder if there are any more nice PR's that might come out before that?
Charlie
Thank you everyone for posting your responses.
I don't have the time to listen to the CC so I'll just read your responses and know that it was successful.
Now I'm glad I bought those 6's that took my average down to 9. Now if we could just bounce back up to 10 and above..... sure we will! If not tomorrow, then soon!
Charlie
How can someone buy $26k of this stock and NOT move the PPS up at least a little? There wasn't that much for sale at that price at that time, was there?
Just did another little smack-a-roo at the ASK for 10k.
I don't care if the volume IS low right now. I know everyone is waiting for the next news and for the SEC fully reporting / uplisting. It will all happen so fast; who will be able to catch it once it runs?
