Amiga Inc auctioning off office and computers?
« on: May 16, 2003, 04:22:38 AM »
Someone just posted this on a local club list:

AMIGA INC
10AM - TUESDAY - JUNE 17
Preview 8-10am, Tuesday, June 17
34935 SE Douglas St, Suite 210
Snoqualmie, WA

Dot com servers, pc's, printers & late model furniture

http://www.murphyauctions.net/auctionschedule.htm

Plus I tried to go to http://www.amiga.com and it said it could not find the site. 10 minutes later, it was there.

I wonder if Sun,IBM,HP, or any of the rest have similer auctions.
Certainly, I'm sure they do... Normally it's to get rid of 10 year old equipment, or to close down a particular operation (such as when a company has many plants).

Based on what we know of Amiga Inc's eviction, pending and awarded lawsuits, my bet is on a foreclosure and seizure of assets to cover unpaid bills.  But that's just my opinion, and has been for about a year now.

Sitting here thinking about this, and going back through the posts regarding the subject when they vehemently denied losing their offices, stating only that they have "relocated", I wonder if anyone will actually apologize to me for all the times I've been called a liar for bringing this stuff to the community's attention?

When they shut down the offices last year, I told you all this was happening.  I was called a liar...  That trend continues to this day with the Garry Hare incident...

It gets tiring being right all the time, but I'll be interested to hear the spin on this from McEwen himself at Amiwest.  I'm just not paying $35 to hear it.

Hmmm.  Don't know how to feel about that.  Technically he's not lying but skating in a circle on thin ice isn't smart.

They no longer use it because they were locked out of their offices according to the court documents displayed by Rich Woods.  The material possessions were seized to pay for something like $40k in back rent.

A 3 year old corporation doesn't have surplus equipment yet guys.  There is no positive spin for this, so stop the bullshit and accept it.

So obviously Tigger doesn't ask tough enough questions for
Personally, I don't care what questions people ask "Fleecy".  He will not directly answer the question, nor has he directly answered (yes or no) a lot of questions.  He'll have some long, drawn out explanation -- like Gary who says that "the equipment being auctions is no longer being used" -- while carefully leaving out any similance of facts (in the case of the auction, it's not being used because they were evicted and the equipment seized, but God save the facts).

When he does, I will be certain to point out the inaccuracies of his statement.

As a matter of fact, 10 weeks in a row now I've been able to see through the "Fleecies" to the real answers.  I guess someone should actually start posting the translations of "Fleecies" to reality here.

as a person who learned to walk with the amiga and recently started to look into the community again I can say that we have a wire fraud in the making or as we say in Sweden "bedrägeri" there are obvious signs of bankrupcy and if that is'nt the case it is probably a corporate reconstruction (??)

But my personal opinion on the matter is that the unfortunate people over at Amiga inc are head over submerged in water.
they seriously need to rethink what they are doing and as far as this netventures thing goes, they should exercise their shares. Kick the people that can be coerced into it, board meeting, get a good-handson-team in there  to rebuild and salvage what can be salvaged.

And as far as this thing is going with the person known as samface and the other Swedes:
 "grabbar kika på dokumenten och bestäm er, det är väl trots allt bättre om vi går ihop och gör något vi kan göra något åt alt. med än att vi försöker blåsa liv i något eller hur!? "



and to all the others, leave it be, the documents basically say one of two things, nothing to really argue who's right or who's wrong about;

Lets just take this journey where it goes and if it ends, let's begin another!
