If I were Ryan Medico I would change my name next if we don't get some positive info very soon.
This is criminal. Hardest lesson I've ever had to learn. The name change really gets me. Like what?
I lost a fortune on this. Wtf
I was getting tired of it months ago. I respect you by the way. As oppose to most other people on here.
Medico is busy filling out forms, hoping for some bailout money. 10,000 cars in San Antonio tx waiting in food lines last week alone. Nobody gives a sh#t about cbd drinks. I've lost so much money on this investment, but it's my own fault. Lesson learned. Holding, but little chance of recovery. Glta
I agree unfortunately. No sense in this daily banter here. Consider your money gone and come back in a month or two or 4. No point in selling now. If vate is still around, which I think it will be it will bounces back and I'll try catching the wave up if I can. GLTA

It also tripped on Monday
Unless CBD coffee and CBD tea are the answer to combating the Coronavirus, don't expect this stock to recover in the next few weeks or months. Just forget about this investment and revisit it in May or June. Someone here is correct in saying medico could sign an agreement with Walmart right now and it wouldn't help.
Not sure where you live but here in the Tri-State area. People are loosing their minds and it's the only thing people can talk about. Everything is being shutdown or expecting to shut down for weeks. The emplacations on the economy are going to be big.
No one is thinking about anything other than Coronavirus right now. Until it becomes resolved or contained nothing else matters.
Pretty close enough to .007 as much as I hate to say it, but I'll make a bold move and call this the bottom. Interesting that they went with 20mg with this CBD whole bean coffee. Should have been available a month or so ago in my opinion. Good luck to all
You think I'm sexy? Shucks......
General CBD Industry News that just came out 4 hours ago explains the current legalities of the CBD market very well. Many great quotes.

I was looking at a map of Orlando Florida where vate is located. You'd hope and think Medico could get his products into Winn-Dixie, Publix, Save a lot, all the smoke/vape shops, gas stations.
I'm an investor here as well. Blame the FDA for problems with selling CBD beverages, but the FDA isn't holding vate back from selling hemp coffee or tea.
I like all of vate's products with exception of the CBD rtd coffee. I can't figure out why there aren't press releases on the regular of new "real distributors", and new locations.
Today is another red day here, but what CBD stock is doing well at the moment?
We saw it and we're not that impressed. Although any progress is good progress.
Tickets cost 30,000 shares of VATE to attend. Seriously though this is good to see.
If CBD beverages are hard to sell at the moment because of the FDA, maybe vate should work on selling their hemp coffee and tea in the mean time then. I'd like to hear from Medico himself that the FDA is in fact what is holding things up here. I'm skeptical that the FDA has any effect of vate getting their drinks into every Bodega, smoke shop, hippy store, gas station, convenient store, CBD stores that keep opening up across the country, etc. Maybe fortune 500 chain stores might be hesitant, but if he can sell his drinks in Seattle, New Mexico, or delivered to my door, then why not everywhere else as well. The FDA hold up may even be an advantage, keeping the big corporation from entering the market. Idk, I'm just thinking out loud here.
Nice, that's what I like to see. If they can just keep doing that.
I've had the CBD iced teas. They're great. I've had the the hemp coffee and hemp teas that are also great. Now vate just needs to get them into stores. So what's the problem?
Great discussion. I would add, what about Blessed Bean coffee? Vate acquired them Jan 2019. They sell all kinds of coffee, teas, and hot cocoa. They seem to only be available on blessed Bean website. There is a link for wholesale/distributors. What's the deal there? I also agree that although I get how CBD teas maybe in a quasi legal status in which it possibly could be hard to sell. There is nothing that should be in the way of expanding vates hemp coffees, teas, or any of the blessed beans products. The Zoe tinture products are bs as far as I can tell. Zero progress there. It appears there is little progress being made here. What's the problem?
That is terrible. How far to the closest location?
A little after 12:30 this afternoon vate posted on FB stating that today would be the last day that their hemp coffee would be available at Lucky's. Around the same time the stock took another dump. I have to guess they're related events.
It would be nice to have a clear answer on the exact locations of where elev8 is for sale. There is a distributor in Washington state that has been doing a good job of getting the iced tea into brick and mortar locations. For example, elev8 has their iced tea at a store called, "Newberry market" located at 16108 Ash Way Suite 106, Lynnwood, WA 98087 or "The King Smoke Shop", located 7758 15th Ave NW, Seattle, WA 98117
+1 206-783-0633. VATE is just getting started. Of course we all would like to see vate everywhere. Hopefully we will continue to see more distributors, more locations and more partnerships in the near future.
I'm loving the CBD variety pack iced teas. I think Vate has something good here.
Got my Elev8 package delivered today. I've got the French Vanilla Hemp ground coffee ready for tomorrow morning. I tried the CBD Hibiscus Iced Tea tonight first. Pretty good. I could see buying one in a store.
How many CBD stocks are doing well at the moment?
I bought them online direct from their website, I know what you mean though. If vate can't get their products in brick and mortar locations then how will anyone know to buy them. I bought the iced teas to see for myself if they're any good or not. Delivery came quick last time I ordered something so I expect I'll get them Tuesday or Wednesday. In my opinion the CBD coffees in a can were terrible. I ended up trying two cans and threw the rest away. It must be difficult getting products onto limited shelve space. If I were medico I'd aim for every head shop, bodeggas, gas station. I understand the possible difficultly with injestable CBD products at this time with the FDA situation, but hemp ground coffee is just a cute, nitch coffee product.
When I googled CBD iced teas elev8te comes up first.
Bought some french vanilla hemp coffee and the variety CBD teas this weekend.
I hope it's not the only press release Ryan has coming out.
Maybe we should each buy a pallet of the ice teas and start selling them out of the trunks of our cars.
Curious on what the price was for the iced teas at that gas station if you remember.
Seems that way. Calm before the storm? I'm okay with quite. I was a little worried with what today would be like with the Lucky's store closing announcement. Not sure how much their stores count for vates sales.
I was told pretty much the same thing as you.
The teas maybe great but the CBD coffee is awful. I paid $64 for the 12 pack and I ended up throwing them in the garbage after trying two of them. I tried adding creamer, but that stevia taste made it unbearable. In my opinion they should stop selling those immediately. Not su
re how many they have left in their inventory, but would be better to dump them and take the hit. Should've never went into production imo. Rtd coffee in a can is very competitive market. There are like 20 of them in my grocery store and I'd say the majority of them already have the cream in them. All of vates other products that I've tried are great, like the ground hemp coffee and teas. In fact the French vanilla coffee might be the best coffee I've ever had.
I'm currently on level 2
Is a reversal taking place? I'm leaning towards yes. Just my humble opinion. Good luck to all.
