Completely agree with you on this. However, they haven't gone private. They still have a stock ticker. They've just chosen not to file anything after 2007 and have left it at that.

On a side note, you know you can request their annual tax returns from the state of Tennessee. I just sent a request for them through the Secretary of State. Will be waiting to see their earnings over the past 2 years.

Here are two documents that say otherwise.

Brandy Simmons (Secretary) electronically signing an annual report with the State of Florida in 2008. This document shows the transfer between the old owners to the new ones.

Brad Simmons signed this document and fully explained the breakdown of his business seen here.

What you're seeing here is a Company (Bell Buckle) that went public in 2007 by merging with Digital Color Print Inc. By the looks of it, they're still not private.... they just haven't bothered with this trading symbol, the TA which is https://www.transferonline.com/, or the registered agent. Because of it, the state of Florida lists them as inactive and rightly so because they never filed anything after going public. (seen here http://search.sunbiz.org/Inquiry/CorporationSearch/SearchResultDetail?inquirytype=EntityName&directionType=Initial&searchNameOrder=BELLBUCKLEHOLDINGS%20P070000675390&aggregateId=domp-p07000067539-a2cc704b-9cb4-4bdd-99d3-3ec41843b40b&searchTerm=bell%20buckle&listNameOrder=BELLBUCKLEHOLDINGS%20P070000675390 )

The key is to find out if the company is willing to do SOMETHING with this since they still have ownership of this stock. It hasn't gone away....
