IMO, if DA were to get the 2011 1st Q's out early, he might get a reprieve. But until then, it's a matter of how much we want to lose and that is why the selling might take place on Monday.
If we sell at 2 and maybe this drops to 1-15 and we get more shares.
I am just so lost at believing most anything of what is to come based upon what has happened. Track reccords speak for themselves.
BB, I want so much to believe what you are saying about the Q3 stuff, but those are again forward looking statements that DA made and since he has not come close to what he reported in Dec and not getting the Shortly Financials out, then when they do come out, we learn of Law Suits and all sorts of things that were said that were not true.
So how can we actually belive that the Q3 numbers will be anywhere near what DA talks about.
I am sorry, but I cannot buy into that hype. Some did in the last news and now have gotten burned.
Now that ther is funnie!
But I am serious! I for some reason still believe that this is going to take off, but not until we get things done on time and that they are as posted. Stop the over selling of the less than a penny stock.
I am still holding my shares and have not sold. If this gets down to that 2 mark, I just might risk buying some more.
What was the PPS when KK and TLK were involved? That should tell the shareholders something. To minimize there participation with Bravada has not been a good result for us IMO.
So what ever he was paying them, the PPS seemed to make it worth it. I know I got involved based upon the involvement of KK. Their family seems to know how to make a buck of two. I still think that Khaos would have done well with the K's filming there at times. If things were not going well for Bravada and sales were not producing to make the profit, then he talks to them and at worst, backs out. But there name is huge in the Industry.
Sure is a lot of chatter here today. Don't we have anything better to do? I just took a break from chores to check in. Was surprised to see the # of posts today.
I sure would like to make an offer to DA. Victoria Gardens Mall or Ontario Mills Mall would be a good location to open a store. Higher end for the San Bernardino County. I have worked retail and would work and run the store as my own in exchange for shares. Maybe have a part time person as well. But there would be no payroll costs to me for doing so.
Anytime DA! I might be frustrated with Bravada, but I am still a great employee to have.
Did that not take place once before? Then someone just got back in and are at a loss already.
And we do not have or is it not going to use that private label that we were PR'ed about either.
But a lot of us did buy and were and still are concerned based on what DA said about Q4 and that is not being understood with this post. It seems that we again are being blown off for what we bought in for.
These same feelings were the same ones that were felt by some when they bought in at Q4 noise.
I hear you! Bad choice of wording. But do we have proof that they are restricted?
My concern is that DA says they are restricted and the way that DA changes his mind, can these same shares all of a sudden be released and changed from restricted to free trading shares?
With the stated in Dec q over q results and those not happening, what are we to believe will happen.
And I believe that some that just got back into this stock and now having a loss makes them post feelings of goody goody before they cut and run again.
Beach-I can understand. And I do respect your opinion. But so many of us are just so tired of DA posting of things that do not happen. He changes his mind. Some say that is a good thing and that they are long. Others that bought into those so called posts and invites to Grand Openings that never happended are upset.
So we get the tug of war and per the PPS, one side is winning it seems.
I am referring to the idea that whom ever he gave the shares to on a restriceted basis, now will be allowed to sell them into the market as they need money. To that point, minds can be changed as has happened with this stcok many, many times.
Well wait until Monday and you should be able to average down some more! Wait until Tues and you might get some even lower IMO.
Not the way many of us understood it. He said Q over Q 2010.
Why would DA even talk about 2009 when we did not have a store to compare sales to?
In Dec, DA again talked about Q over Q being 175%-200% and we get 13%.
Not that 13% is a bad thing for companies, it's just that DA hyped it up and again failed to perform as stated. That creates distrust and a sell off causing a PPS drop as happened today again.
Can the pattern be seen by shareholders? I know there are some that just got back in and are already down. They want it to go back up a little so they can probably dump what they have. If they were really longs, they would have held what they bought a long time ago.
At what point does DA change his agreement with the company that he gave millions to, to reduce debt and let them sell into the market as they need money. I can see that change of mind thing coming as he has changed his mind on so many other issues and left us holding the bag.
Correct me if I am wrong, but did we not have 92 mil in share dilution in the 1st q of this year? That is what I read on the financials.
On top of way to much in expenses.
The point is missed! DA said 175% -200% increase and we get 13%. That creates distrust and frustration amongst shareholders. That is why they sell! Those that want to buy down here most certainly can. But come Monday, my belief is that we are lower than we closed today.
Financial were delayed and they were supposed to be out last night, but they were signed with todays date. Makes me wonder if DA even had them last night when the CC was going on. He did state that he had just got them and if that was the case, I would have thought the typed in date would have been 4/14/11.
I don't think it is the board that is driving this into the dirt. IMO, it's about what DA says and does not make happen as usual, then we get those that think it is acceptable based upon some other things that he can do to reduce costs.
If that was the case, why would he not have done that before based upon the q of q sales growth that did not happen.
DA is just not believed on this board by many shareholders and they want out. I cannot blame them either. I just do not see us competing with LULU and taking the challange with them. LULU was up about 60 cents a share today and we were down, and again after a PR.
I personally can not say enough good things about Solar Power. Watching the video on You Tube is so exciting as to where we are some day going with solar.
Solar roads that constantly charge our Solar cars. Just awesome.
Now if SSOL can mangage to obtain more contracts to fill the plate for next year before the end of this year. WOW!
They did not get the ones they have until Jan for 2011. So we are ahead of the game. It all comes down to supplying from the manufacture, qualified installation personal and this little pinky goes to market.
Anyone wonder why DA when he got those shoes at Target, just did not order them at Target's e-commerce site and have them mailed to him?
Probably wanted to try them on and make sure they fit him.
Do we not think that LULU has an on line presence as well?
Senitments have changed to where we are glad that we do not have a 3rd store opening, but we had enough dilution to pay off $600,000 in debt on the back of shareholders. OK! So it is supposed to be held for 3 years.
Wait, DA changed his mind again and now they can sell the shares as the owner of the debt needs some money.
We had to pay off debt in which to be able to order more product would be my thinking on why it was done.
And by the way! LULU is up about 65 cents a share while BRAV is down again with all this supposedly great news.
Dude-Take off the blinders and look at the bigger picture!
PPS at .0023 and down again after another PR.
No 3rd store
Are the financials out?
What private label?
$600,000 in share dilution on the backs of the shareholders.
But we have an on line site.
Golly People! Are we not tired of what DA says and then does not get done?
No 3rd store
No Private Label
No Financials
No way to confirm sales
But we want to believe what he says in a PR? Great Salesman he is!
I have just seen to many things not happen here than those that have happened. I just do not believe what he says.
How can we possibly challange LULU with only an on line presence? IMO that challange will be lost at the store level. We got a CEO that buys shoes from Target. I bet we have a lot of women buying their sport clothing there as well.
Hey Journie--How about this and solar?
Are you telling me to google Tobin Smith?
A waste of posts. Should have just said that with the first one and saved us both some time.
Get to the point!
He is not bashing. But again DA made a statement that hyped the stock and then he does not follow through on. This causes frustrations and we get voices of dissent.
I heard a lot of talk on basically the same subject of onlylegging.com. I heard that we will not have a 3rd store anytime soon. Again I heard that sales were good, but at the same time said that some days it was like $130.
What I did not hear was actual numbers that he made an excuse for as not having read the financials as he had just got them 15 min earlier. Which sounds legit.
Without having more stores like Lulu does, how can we possibly even come close to comparing to LULU and taking the challenge with them. Where has all the dilution gone, to pay the debt? Does that not equal on the back of the Shareholders?
Should have sold into the news as someone once stated. Again a Bravada PR that come tomorrow, I think the PPS backs up as with most of the PR's.
We thought dilution was for private lable, which I guess we have, we just do not have the money to buy the products. Then why did we spend the money for the label. How do we know we even have the label. That sounds like another excuse to me.
At least he sort of appologized for the sophisticated investor remark and clarified that statement.
I can appreciate him buying someone a Latte for the PR aspect of the business. No problem with that. A by all means, if you want someone to buy our more expensive items than what Target sells theirs for, by a better pair of shoes for yourself as you feet support you, which support us.
Sort of like telling people if you cannot afford good ones like Bravada, then go to Target. Heck! Big 5 Store would have been better choice.
Who is Tobin Smith?
Thatguy! Thanks! I can appreciate a post like yours. I would have to agree with most parts. But the part that DA does not follow through on, is what irks me the most. Stop using words like Soon, Shortly or anything that is forward looking. Those things do not happen as they are portrayed and we lose faith and get more frustrated.
124 million in a music library? Sell some of it and buy the shares back Roxanna! Either that or resign and get someone in that can make something happen.
This is all just stupid! Roxanna, you with your unkept promises have shot this thing down to the point it is at. No one is believing your stuff and junk any more and you need to go bye bye. Quit, Resign, do something that will help this company, Not more of your typical, not forth coming PR's about noting but more hype.
Roxanna really has to get off the pot!
Go to Ebay and type in the leggings you want and you get darn near the same thing.
Sort of like going to the auto trader and typing in the car you want.
Brand new items at Ebay and shipping from these suppliers is very low as well.
So where do we go from here? Name reconization is important, agreeed?
You just came back with something and continue to miss the point. That is why I respond.
typing in: onlyleggins.com is specific.
typing in leggings is not
Using what ever car you bought through auto trader is not specific.
Why would you have not been specific and typed in the type of car you were looking for instead of going to the autotrader?
Should have been specific as that is what is being asked for women to do with onlyleggings.com
And the point is missed!
If a woman only knows of leggings, she types in leggings and does not get Bravda. Why would she even do a search if she knew of Bravda and not just type in Bravada.
You can also a do a search of the type of car you want without going to autotrader as they are an advertiser and compared to Google, Bing and Yahoo search engines.
Why would you have used autotrader instead of typing in what you wanted as you suggest that women do with onlylegging.com?
IMO, no sense in this debate. Again, can we drop it?
They have a lot of cars on auto trader. So if I type in auto trader I can what? I can find a car! Type in leggings and you find leggings.
If you know what exactly you are looking for, that would all be fine. But how many women want a pair of leggings? This is what they will type most likely will type in. From there they will then narrow the search down.
Why go to the auto trader when you knew what kind of car you wanted? Just should have typed in that type of car IMO. Would have saved you a lot of searching.
Can we agree to get off this subject? Just get the Fiancianls on time this time and do not use SOON with the branded label or anything until it happens. As we are aware of, nothing happens soon with Bravada as is PR'ed about.
Lev--I am proud of you for this post. It was very good and well responed to with out attacking and very factual. So Cudo's to you for that.
How about DA in his PR's mentions something like being specific on the style you want when you go to the onlyleggings.com site as we have som many styles to choose from.
If I were shopping for a car, it would not be on line. It would be something that I could test drive, feel and smell the new car smell. No comparison to buying clothing on line.
But my post was about if someone did not know about a particular style but knew they were called leggings. Bravada has a site for onlyleggings.com.
How many women know they want leggings and would simply type that in. How would they know of the site if they did not know the Bravada name. LuLu being bigger might be typed in like LuLu Leggings and see what comes up.
Sort of like a car I guess. If you did not know about different manufactures and new they were cars. That is what you would type in and then search from there.
You will most likely have to play it all the way up. Selling and buying at all the right spots would be great. GLTU at doing that. But still hold on to a long position. That way you can average down by owning more shares.
Just something that we need to do in pinky land.
What is the NBT network?
This is what I get when I type in Leggings!

Not mine! Mel B's involvement in the past has not done much for the current PPS. Nothing but a tweet from DA about her supposedly being in the store and then someone imagining her at the Grand Opening that she could not make becasue she was in London.
Not impressed with much of what Bravada is doing lately and the more I am addressed, the more I get frustrated. And that is how Bravada keeps shooting itself in the foot.
We were on the subject of the Grand Opening being in early April. Not on the filing date for the late financials that we have 1 store to work on.
Of course you have something of fact to post on? I am kind of feeling that more Shareholders are agreeing with the way I see it as well.
Does near term equal the same as Shortly Financials? We want facts! Not more of possilbe developments. This sounds like DA's post back in January of 2011.
So again, we get more speculation. I would think that DA, if this was the plan, would have at least been able to state that info as to this being the reason for the delay. That is what I would call planning and commitment.
Not an idea as to when she might be back. If she is that busy and cannot make a plan to be somewhere on a certain date. How can we ever expect her to be creative with designs. She might change her mind and have to leave town again when we have a scheduled date.
The response was just awful and filled with more speculatiin that drives the PPS lower.
Exactly again! No specific date. April has 30 days! Early would be 1st-10th.
mid would be 11th-20th and late would be 21st-30th. You would think that
DA could have give an actual date if one was actually planned.
There is no Middle! What? When someone says early, that should be early. Again, to much room for speculation is left, which creates doubt by shareholders. This causes the PPS to go lower IMO!
My sentiments exactly. Just do the things on time, good or bad. Do what you say and PR about happening and do them in the time frame that you lead us to believe.
