I think Charlie is bang-onwith his recent post about the sewer that Tinley has been wallowing in for awhile.
No doubt this has been in the hands of market-makers who are content on picking their renumeration, pennies at a time, with little concern for the success or failure of Tinley.
What is unclear is how much collaberation was there between our management and the market-makers.
I am really struggling with Jeff's reputation eroding to these levels but a picture is worth a thousand words and whether he is involved in this derision or a victim who is having his reputation dashed and trashed. My personal dealings with him gave me the impression that he was intent on building a cannabinoid beverage company with marketshare winning products. When I conversed with him he seemed very attentive to my concerns and the shareprice inched up, so there was little concern that we would wind up where we are currently.
He picked up a high calibre team along the way and we were surprised with our own bottling facility along the way. When we dropped the Hemplify I was concerned because I held CBD beverages in high esteem and felt there was a future for them with a new id and better promotion. Instead we went hard for THC infused beverages in California, with a huge concentrated market and pro-pot consumers.
Winner winner, chicken dinner or so I thought but the marketmakers were starting to have their way with us. Beckett's came out of left field and actually got launched in record time by my calculation which gave hope for Tinley's getting going, which was questionable in California and no doubt, a failure in Canada, due to the poor choices made for co-bottlers and distribution.
Mistakes were made in California too with distributors that seemed more like friends and family than anybody that could really deliver the service required.
Our big name hopeful, Rick seemed to be too at home at the bottling facility for which he owns the licences and the fact that this hasn't been transferred to Tinley's is concerning that their may be ulterior motive for a group of guys to wind up with a free "state of the art" cannabinoid bottling facility for free, in that hot California market.
As far as the other guys, I'm wondering what they are bringing to Tinley's or if they are just around for the free shares and options.
It took an extaordinarily long time to walk Jeff to the door while our shareprice was getting devastated, way beyond real value imho and we still have mostly the same team at the wheel of a train that looks like it could wind up as a wreck.
Lots of concern for a takeout by somebody/anybody as acquisitions increase amongst potpreneurs who are vying for supremacy in the marketplace.
Given some of the values paid for other bottling facilities which seemed quite satisfactory, I am hoping that our facility is too, but moreso, I am hoping that the management survivors don't wind up with it, if they are a part of the dismal performance of our shares by coercion.
We are at the point of success or failure and preferred shareholders get the spoils if it is failure!
I hope what is left of our team has a conscience and a reputation worth the effort to save, for the benefit of the first round of investors.
The CSE is the go to exchange aka Cannabis Exchange and don't need to get tagged with the rep of the Moose Pasture Exchange like the good old VSE.
US politicians have dangled the carrot of concern for pot investors but dropped it in the slop while they figure out how to try to slip it through some other way, but it is coming imho.
When it does, most any stock associated with marijuana and hemp will rise with the incoming tide.
glta and just don't sell!
