I like the sound of those numbers but keep in mind we don't know how many cases each Costco received, only two have been confirmed.

Costco - Cypress = 48 bottles 31 sold in 11 days remaining = 17

Costco - City of Industry = 24 bottles no documentation or updated pictures.

Judging from their facebook and people who posted buying Marani from their respective Costco's I can conclude the vodka is indeed selling!

How much we won't know until Dan gives the word!

If you or anyone can confirm they've received more cases than just the initial then I'd agree with your math/projection completely!

keep in mind the person authorized to represent Marani on their social media websites stated the vodka was selling, also Goldteam supposedly spoke with Margrit and she said costco sales were doing "good".

I have faith a national distributor will pick Marani up, we have the bottles now, Restaurant Depot needs a refill, perhaps certain Costco's need refills, Hi-Times, and the question we're all waiting for is who's next? Which state will be the lucky one to get those 750ML's? My guess is good as anyone's but IMO NYC baby!

Yes the best case scenario is 31,000 in gross sales. That's also less than $15,000 in gross margin not including co-op fees and expenses. Take out just the two employees making $27,000 a month and you're at $3,000 a month before paying the other employees, rent, payroll taxes, etc. so the awesome scenario is obviously a money loser. If Costco is a money loser and it's being touted as some kind of incredible happening I think you need to look at this company that is currently insolvent as unable to pull the rabbit out of the hat. There's just nothing here. It's nickels and dimes with no relief of huge debt, payables, legal fees, etc. how can you run a company with no money? I assure you they are burning rough more than ten times what they're bringing in. And let's not forget that they're already known to owe more In back taxes than 200 months of sales at the "awesome results" level. This thing is most definitely a pipe dream. Actually I take that back. Anyone on the inside perpetuating this must know its a stock play for insiders and the owner of the zero basis stock. It will go away when the money runs out. Should be in just a few months.
