We also have a different target demographic than a product such as New Leaf's. IMO our target demo is a home run (or shall I say a slam dunk), especially with LJ involved! Not saying that we will or will not soar to New Leaf's heights, but I think if Ross and management do this right, continue to develop new products and push the marketing nationwide, HFBG is going to be big.

I live in Vegas and am always driving around for work. I'll keep my eyes peeled and will attempt to hunt down a picture of this "mystery bus". Sounds like a load of bull IMO, but you never know!

Who in their right mind is still buying the POS scam? This should have been halted months ago...

I never once said it was unfair. I played a high risk high reward stock and got caught. I posted my correspondence for everyone on the board to use in whatever manner they see fit. Your assumptions get old fast....

TD Ameritrade says my SPNG shares are "restricted", thus cannot be traded. Their only "solution" is for me to use another brokerage, transfer my SPNG shares to them, and then attempt a trade? Wow. Something very fishy here...

Messages received from TD Ameritrade's customer service rep:

In response to my initial inquiry on why I am unable to trade my SPNG shares using TD:

"I can assist you regarding SPNGQ. This stock is restricted. The DTCC, the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, has designated this stock with a global lock. It is not eligible for deliver, transfer, or withdrawal which prohibits a clearing firms¿ ability to settle any movement of positions including trades. There is a variety of reasons for global lock designation, which may involve upcoming corporate actions, allegations of fraud at an issuer or agent or some other type of irregularity that makes the validity of the issuer¿s outstanding shares suspect.

Based on the industry wide DTC "Global Lock" restriction that prohibits a clearing firms', specifically TD AMERITRADE¿s, ability to settle trades. If we is unable to settle our clients¿ trades the liability of the trade becomes TD AMERITRADE¿s. In lieu of the industry wide lock, TD AMERITRADE has removed the ability to trade this security.

Regrettably, at this point, the only recourse you have is to contact the investor relations department of SPNGQ. Please let me know if I can assist you further."

I then asked if that is the ONLY way and received this as a response:

"You are able to transfer the stock to a firm that does not have a restriction on the shares. You will need to contact them so they can request the assets on your behalf."

With you buddy. Long, looking to add more later this week.

(Let me have some of those 6's damn it! haha)

If the attorney opts to take payment via 1.5% of the commons of the new company, where will these common shares come from?

Yes. Diluted to hell and back. Be very, very careful here. Company doesn't seem to give a hoot about shareholders... Just look at the pps history here, along with the volume.

My question to everyone here: who is still buying this?? Especially at the volumes we have experienced?

30k cases for a nation-wide roll out is also IMO a rather thin supply... I understand Ross has said the second production run is funded and scheduled, so I hope it gets going soon enough to really supply the demand I see this product garnering.

I've been seeing this "Sweet Leaf Tea" everywhere here in Vegas lately. 7 Eleven is advertising the hell out of it here. I've yet to try it because I have Grandmama's on my mind :)

Serious question: Why produce a TV commercial to air on some VERY BIG networks if we only 30,000 cases of product shipping this month? Wouldn't you think we would want a minimum of 10 or 20x that amount of product available when people see this rumored commercial? For that matter, I wonder how many shares it cost us shareholders to produce and run this commercial...

I like where your head is at my friend. I am of the exact same opinion. Can't wait to see this POR!

It sure appears like they are dumping on us at every PR... We should have broke into double zeros today!

That sure would be nice to see PR'd any day now, as we have a little momentum going at the moment.

Lets see some pics of the pallets. I'll order a pallet for myself at this point haha

TD Ameritrade

How can you trade this? My TD account won't let me enter a sell order for my near-worthless shares... Anyone able to enter sell orders on this??

Down 20% on 14k in volume?? These MM's really like f'ing with us!

The inventory on hand of $290,000 isn't too hard to believe. Look at it as just under $10/case? imo

Its August 20th, where are our 2nd quarter financial statements?? I need to know how much these punks diluted my 18M shares...

I'm in :)

And how is that? Closing red 25%+?

VERY nice find indeed! The only thing in weeks that has calmed my nerve over holding this stock long...

No sign of our product in any c-store that I searched in San Diego/Encinitas this weekend.

I'm most interested in the current share structure right now. I think the share price is where it is because most all investors assume that the 4+ billion shares have been issued. IMO of course

All we can do is hope for the best. I hope Mr. Ross is grabbing this company by the horns and turning it around. It could be HUGE if he takes the proper steps to do so. This filing looks good in my eyes as it shows he is taking preemptive actions to avoid any problems. I like it :) Show me the money!!!!

Notice that it states the filing of this notification grants issuers 5 additional CALENDAR days to post quarterly reports. Seeing as this filing is dated 8/12/2010 and the anticipated filing date is 8/20/2010, 8 calendar days, will this pose any kind of problem with our standings? i.e. caveat emptor, etc?

So 4+ billion shares doesn't concern you as a shareholder?????

Got my 50k sell order in at $5 per :)

Awesome find! Gotta love the extensive collective DD of this board.

Kicking myself for only buying 50k shares so far... Hope this puppy runs!!

Investors Place Bets on QSGI Bankruptcy

QSGI, Inc. (QSGIQ, Free Analysis), a technology services and maintenance company that is currently in bankruptcy, saw its shares jump more than 60% as traders got involved. Often times, bankrupt companies experience volatility due to existing shareholders selling out and short-sellers covering their positions, which combine to form a volatile environment.
Some shareholders may also be betting on some residual value being left over after bankruptcy. However, this is almost certainly not the case, since the firm’s liabilities substantially exceeded its assets during its latest financial release. As a result, fulfilling debtor claims on its assets may far outweigh its total assets, leaving little to no residual value for common stock shareholders.

-----------------------------------------------

Anyone read into this at all? All DD I have done so far points in the opposite direction as this quick blurb I found while searching google...

I'm in the same boat, been averaging down since .003 or thereabouts. Holding 18M @ .00097 now, hoping we see a surge in price on production & distribution news in the next few weeks! GLTA!

When they eventually report that we are operating at a profit, this thing will take off. Until then, many steps have to materialize in our (the company's) favor, including the end of dilution, if any, and transparency of the share structure.

I am long and strong in HFBG and happen to be in Sonoma this week. Just visited the Rodney Strong Vineyard yesterday. If you want want me to do some ninja DD just let me know :P

You know its bad when you own more shares than the total shares traded in a day! FML
