I think for that to be true they would actual have to issue shares...no?
Since they aren't doing that... you're just full of bs.
All that you said is true, but you left out that it also has real bad management and that's unfortunately the most important of them all. Like I said, great product that I've personally tried and very much enjoyed.
The smart play here is to just be a customer. Unless you're one of Tonys friends getting free shares you won't be an investor making money. Flippers are the only ones they might be.
Boy am i glad i got out a few weeks ago at .01+
It's a shame how poorly this company is run cause the product is really good.
Good luck to anyone still in it. This is just a money and time sink. It'll take years to a decade for this to pay off if it even ever does.
Be factual and don't spread lies. Don Paradiso, who you're referring to had nothing to do with these guys now after he got in trouble last april for screwing over a different company.
The guys in this company have more ethics. The reason they pulled back from rshn and grps is cause goulding wanted to run a pump and dump and the wsrc guys didn't want to do shady stuff like that. I got that info straight from them in a phone call not ago.
So that's one of the many things that set them back last year is they got screwed by goulding like every one else.
But, do your own DD.
They have a tiny Twitter following. Once they release an official PR that hits the wire this will get more attention.
Until then, it's just a waiting game.
One thing is for certain is that "when" this moves it really, really moves.
You do know that trades require a seller of shares correct? And, nobody is selling right now?
I've had buy orders for the past few weeks that have gone completely unfilled, and they aren't ridiculously low either. I'm talking buy orders in the .015/.02 range that aren't getting filled.
Go FUD somewhere else.
I like the Tweets, they only have 80 followers as of right now though so I'm sure the stock will get more traction when the actual PR roll's out and more people can see it.
One thing is for certain. People aren't selling shares on the cheap, I've been trying to buy shares all week at or just under the bid and have gotten nada.
I live in Florida and it's not in publix, not in winn dixie, not at Wawa, not at race track, not at CVS, not at walgreens. So maybe it's different where you live?
And I'm also relaying what I was told by Brian as to why they haven't started selling. I have a friend that runs an ice cream shop that advertises CBD ice cream. I know it's around, just not as prevalent as you'd expect given Hemp was legalized over a year ago.
I hear you, and I do see CBD being sold all over the place. Like I said according to Brian it's all very diluted and not a quality product, or people are breaking the law.
Not saying I necessarily agree or disagree with what he said but there certainly isn't nearly as much CBD as you would expect if it were fully legal and companies could get full banking privileges. It's not in grocery stores, it's not in pharmacy's, it's not in gas stations. There are some companies selling it online, at least that i've seen. And to be fair, I haven't really researched all the companies so I'm sure there's much i'm missing or unaware of.
That's what Brian was saying is that it's not really full spectrum what people are selling. It's diluted or such low quality to not be against the FDA regulation. I can't explain as well as he did, he's a smart guy especially in this space.
I spoke with him a few days ago, first harvest was processed into quality CBD, but they can't sell it due to FDA and Federal banking limitations. So what you were told was true. As for the second harvest that was around the time the Gouldings pulled out so maybe they were able to prevent planting the second harvest in time or minimize losses, I'm not sure.
Many farmers have been holding off on additional harvests for the same reason, everone is sitting on Hemp and/or CBD eighth nothing to do with it.
Anyone else out there selling something labeled as CBD is likely selling something so diluted is not actually CBD.
Sitting on millions worth of CBD they can't sell cause of FDA and inability to get merchant banking.
From what I understand there are certainly more plans for communication. Having heard what last year was like I can only imagine what a PR would have even looked like.
"Hey, we got screwed by the Gouldings and the Government and it's going to take a year to get things sorted out"
Something like that probably wouldn't have gone over very well.
I heard a rumor that there's going to be a new site launching soon as well potentially with products, things that they can do w/o the CBD legal red tape. Hemp has many uses.
Within the last 24 hours the site is now under construction.
Lock up your shares and be smart about the ride if you plan on getting off of it. There are a lot more people out there who don't know what's gone on over the last 18 months with these guys than those who do. So anything meaningful will likely send this soaring for a short time.
Not exiting enough, my buy order isn't getting touched.
Odd, I've had various orders of 20-200k shares on or just below bid not getting filled...
As usual you know nothing Jon Snow.
Bingo. There are a lot more ways to make money with Hemp tham just CBD.
Word on the street is last years challenges were potentially the result of WRSC & the Olesens declining to go along with Gouldings Pump and Dump scheme, and that is why RSHN/GRPS pulled out leaving them high and dry and without their "promised capital."
There's also a lot of issues right now where banking/financing/selling are still legal challenges.
I have it on good authority that WSRC is still active with WCFI and that while it has been slow, things are still moving forward. As far as what I've been lead to understand, they were lied to as much as anyone.
So after doing some research over the last week or so, I am going to be looking to add on dips.
Can you try talking that infrequently? Many of us would be greatly obliged.
I don't care what they are, I plan to take full advantage of whatever move gets me money back.
I don't care what it is as long as I can get my money back out of them.
Derp on me, i had about $1500 free and had an open order for the past week to put it all in at .015...grew impatient today and moved buy to .023
Doh!
Legit companies can have shady operations and greedy leadership, and not be a scam.
I did not call him a scam artist or think he is. Scams aren't real, APRU very much is.
That is different from from saying it's being poorly managed with respect to the shares. And, I'm only critical of the millions of dollars being handed out at trip level value when the stock is trading over a penny. That's grossly irresponsible management with an already inflated share structure.
If those shares are 'necessary' for the success of give business, I will be the first to come apologize. But, the company needs to provide more information on the necessity, and as a shareholder with a vested interest in the share structure that is not too much or unreasonable to ask.
I made 3 a few days ago
"Terrible management is all he is. Which is a damn shame since the product is great. Tony is in it for himself and nobody else."
2nd,
"Seriously..North Dakota? I'm sure there are great people there but it's not where you expand your business 'first'"
and lastly
"Slight of hand is all this is while he gets rich"
The 1st one may be a bit out of line but it was in response to someone else asking about the LVVV shares that we keep hearing will be taken care of "in a timely manner" but have no actual updates on.
Really, I don't think that's very harsh or incorrect based on the information readily available.
Was it negative, sure. I'm a frustrated investor and expressed my frustration at management on twitter, and instead of addressing my concerns they blocked me. I work for a 35 billion dollar fortune 100 company, and this is not how you handle criticism.
I agree, I have no issue with being ignored.
Sending a DM and then blocking is the unprofessional part. I'm still a shareholder, and still buying cause I've sampled the product and hold out hope that one day they'll get their shit together with the share structure.
As a shareholder, I do have a right to voice my frustration with the millions of dollars worth of shares that have been handed out like candy to seeming nobodies and rampant dilution.
And, at the end of the day I'm ok being blocked since all they post about are tasting's in the exotic land of...North Dakota...
I'm saying a company that can't take very light criticism in stride and blocks people who give it is very unprofessional.
A good company addresses criticism with information.
As for being an "ASS"...you may want to delve into self-reflection if you're approach to people you don't know is to hurl insults. But, I can take it and won't block you.
So apparently the way APRU deals with criticism of how it handles its share structure on Twitter is to send you a DM and then block you so you can't respond.
Very professional and mature of them.
There is an assumption being made that this is even the same Roger Johnson.
That's not exactly an uncommon name so I wouldn't take anything in that article very seriously without confirmation that it's relevant at all.
Those are still question marks. And retired said he spoke to Goulding, who has nothing to do with WSRC at this point. Nobody has made any contact with Dennis Atkins, Roger Johson, or anyone associated with WSRC. I've spoken to Brian Olesen myself back in February, but haven't had luck reaching him either since then.
I am surprised we don't have a stop sign yet. The only thing I can think is that WSRC has made contact with OTC and they are giving them time to find a replacement attorney, at least that's what I hope is happening. It's been 2 months and I can't think of any explanation.
I've also sent numerous emails to OTC themselves about why Don Paradiso was even added to the prohibited list...but have gotten 0 responses in about 12 attempts.
Any update on this? Thanks.
This is utter bull. Funding is not an issue, they could very easily issue shares if it were either that or fold. Considering they have such a small amount of shares outstanding, and it was trading between .05-.08 for so long they could have raised millions if needed.
Who knows, that very well could be the volume that we saw over the last few months and now they are back to business.
They also had a whole crop of Hemp that they could have sold and whatever CBD isolate they had already extracted. there's also the fact that the extraction business helps other 3rd party growers in the area as has been reported even last year before this whole venture started.
Bottom line is nobody knows but common sense say's funding isn't the main issue. Bad management, not wanting to PR fluff until they have something solid to PR, all bad decision by the company but doesn't mean it's dead in the water.
Either sell, hold, or add.
Since you spend so much time and know them so well, could you encourage them to share more about what is going on? No PR fluff, but a video of the operation like they released in the fall, let people get to know them.
And what of Judith? She was appointed VP according to their long ago PR.
And, when i spoke to Brian at the end of January he said they are 50/50 partners with WSRC, you're now saying that isn't true?
And this is how the SEC/FBI get ya...
I know etrade can be off abs mentioned so. But fidelity also showed it and I've not seen them be off like that. Not that they can't be, but i haven't seen it.
I also don't expect we will see .07, or even .03 this week. Just seemed strange.
Almost any new business the owners take no salary sometimes years until they are profitable. That's pretty common.
I know etrade can be strange looking sometimes...but anyone else seeing an after market Ask of .07?
Edit, my fidelity account shows an ask of .07 for 257k shares as well.
