The bulk shipments to KT or DonJoy I don’t know. Somebody here should though If I remember somebody figured out how many should have been on each pallet in that photo we saw of the 9 ton shipment to KT.
Sorry can’t help you more, but we obviously need a lot more 9 ton shipments!!
I assume you mean the KT +Wave set. There’s just one in a box and it’s only 250 hours. The one real downside of the whole deal.
Geeeez! KT!!!!!
Sorry, I can never remember it’s KD!
Thanks Srin, I’d forgotten about the chip shortage, which could be a problem — certainly is for the car industry. Those little devils are in everything now!!
This doesn’t in any way affect my expectations for an incredible future for Biel and our Actipatches (or whatever name they’re sold under). It’s just an interesting logistics problem — how do you stock thousands of stores quickly, and with more than just two examples. I suspect this is why DK hasn’t had more advertising, as for March Madness. Only one or two stores in all the Indy area have them. Just amazes me so few stores in Chicago have them.
I have been searching these cities for more than a month now. I suspect my CVS in my little town will be the last one in America to get one (!) but I keep checking.
Also, for example, I just checked the Boulder/Denver zip codes. There’s only one store that shows it having stock (in Littleton). These cities, especially Boulder, a big university town, are famous for outdoor sports, etc. and where a lot of Olympic athletes train. One would think the Wave would sell like hotcakes in stores there. Just strange I think as to deciding where to place them first. Obviously they don’t have enough supply yet to do a real nationwide rollout.
I’m still curious how they’re choosing where to stock stores — like in Nashville. As far as I can tell, there are still only one or two stores in Indianapolis, St. Louis, Chicago (downtown), Evansville, Terre Haute, or nearly all of central Illinois, that even carry them, less alone being out of stock.
Thanks Hawk! Ordered four more. Four is the limit for the sale, and the sale runs until tomorrow night. Also says supplies are limited. This is a pretty good deal, 50% off, and free shipping over $25.
I don’t think DT can announce much until they get these things in stores. A quick search shows that at most only 2 or 3 CVS stores in (among others), Chicago, St. Louis, Indianapolis, Springfield (Illinois, the capital), Evansville, and small towns around have anything in stock. Seems that 9 ton delivery wasn’t nearly enough.
No surprise. From the places I’ve checked in the Midwest — Chicago, Indianapolis, much of central and southern Illinois (including the capital Springfield) and Indiana, there are very, very few stores that even have them in stock yet.
I saw this on another board. I know nothing about it. Is it true? Does it apply to the MMs who fail to cover Biel nearly every day? Anyone else want to comment?
"The new coming SEC rule has Shorts scared shirtless
Beginning at the open on March 19th they must cover their shorts daily ....there is no longer a 21 day Grace Period
All these Grey and Expert Market stocks clearing up their books and filing to go PINK CURRENT are gonna destroy them
They were really hoping to NEVER have to cover and that the Companies they shorted to the ground would simply be delisted
Its setting up to be the biggest transfer of wealth from Hedge Funds and Market Makers to Retail investors in History.."
I agree RDW. There are still seemingly a bunch of CVSs that haven’t been supplied yet. None of the 30 plus stores around me. It looks like there are only a couple in downtown Chicago that have them.
The next big sporting event is March Madness, which will all take place in Indianapolis, the entire tournament. Would be a great time and place to advertise. Give some to all the teams. Yet, it seems there are no CVSs in Indy that have them in stock. No use advertising if the customer can’t go out and buy one.
Now THAT was a wave!!
Good thing TooHot booked us a train rather than a ship. The SS Biel would have made us all seasick with the ups and downs on these price waves.
Here we go with the MM games again! God I hate the OTC market !!
Maybe they’re waiting until they get them in all the stores. There are 20 or more CVSs within about 40 miles of me and none of them have the WAVE yet. Not much good to have a nationwide campaign until they’re in every store.
Great! Thanks!
Can someone please repost the url CVS link to search for Actipatches by zip code. Thanks!
My first Actipatches were the Healfast loops for animals. This was ten years ago when Biel was banned from selling them in the US — but the Healfast loops were the same product. They worked, and why I’m still here today!! My first real “Actipatches”were ones a friend picked up for me at Boots in London a couple of years later.
I just quickly looked on Amazon and didn’t see the Healfast loops. Am I just using the wrong search term or can we not buy them anymore? And what will their price be?
I hate to see the TryActipatch site go. I think we’ll never see the $19 dollar refills again, or the holiday 2 for 1 or half off sales. Luckily I bought thirty Actipatches during the half price sales at Thanksgiving and Christmas last year but my wife and I both use them so don’t know how long they’ll last.
Yes, good point. Still like that “Powered by Actipatch” line on the packaging that DonJoy uses. Biel has also said the are retiring the Actipatch name in North America, which is another twist.
No, I’m not. Just find it interesting and that Biel sort of seems to be favoring KT by referring buyers to their site and product. Who knows then what names for the Actipatch other OEMs will use in North America.
It’s a little strange I think that Donjoy has been sort of forgotten, as they still use the Actipatch name on their product and packaging. Yet the old TryActipatch site now refers one to the KT tape site and it’s Wave product. Yet DonJoy and KT will be in the same stores, same shelves, maybe even commercials following each other for the Olympics! Seems like DonJoy got in first and kept the name and then KT Tape demanded some kind of priority rights and name change.
JGD, I wasn’t attacking you — just making an observation about the weak hands today. Geeeez!! You’re top of the list good guy!
Too hot! Is it true you had to ask some people to get off today because they had soiled their pants? I’m sure you’ll let them back on, provided they still have their Biel tickets!!
The Biel Express will be leaving the station shortly!!
To quote Gilda Radner: oops! Never mind!
Fake alarm! Nothing to see here folks. Let’s just move along!
.0007 for me. No worries.
We’ve all seen worse than this before. Know what you own. And thanks for the cheap shares.
We should know this afternoon if there will be news on Monday. The price will start going up quickly in the last hour as the insiders learn the news and start placing their bets. God this system is corrupt! That’s what happened with the last, big FDA announcement — big uptick late Friday, news after hours and on Monday. If we don’t see that than probably nothing Monday.
My wife wants Mr. Washington. I’m going for Susan B!!
If it works postmortem we’re in business!!
I spoke with a secretary at Biel a couple of weeks ago and she said they were planning a sale for the holidays. I was going to buy ten replacement Actipatches as my wife and I both wear them. Interestingly, they’re not including the replacement patches in the sale. But, with 2 for 1 I still got got the ten regular patches for much less than the ten replacements at regular price.
Great news! I’ve been waiting for this. Just ordered ten!
Meanwhile, the stock price has gone down from 0016 to 0011. We’re going to be in the trips once again! but we know what Keith meant by total! Can this get any more depressing?
And after all the fake hoopla, PAOG closes down for the day. And we’ll never see most of about four or five pumpers again.
I’d be shocked off it closes above .004 today. Big pump and dump effort here today. I’ll wait for company news - then we can talk .005, a penny, a dollar.
Looks like LuckyBoy and his friends got their little bump and now that the market has realized what happened it’s dropping back down. P. T. Barnum was right.
This isn’t news, this is just some potboiler stock promoting operation that is looking for enough rise out of this “big” news to make a quick profit and move on. With your twenty or more big headline messages this morning I would imagine you work for them. Nothing to see here. Moving on.
This is not to say I don’t think PAOG is not going to move up, but only when there’s real news from the company itself.
Does anyone actually have a link to this news?! It’s not on ETrade or Yahoo. Or even a summary of what it is?
