Bankrupt sale

Midnight Rider · 11-17-2008, 07:32 PM

Has any body noticed the guys holding the signs along Davis Hwy advertising "Our loss is your gain Bankruptcy Sale at Surperior Furniture". My question is!! How many times can a business file for bankrupty? They hold these same signs out about every 6 months. What a gimmic.

Yeah I hear ya... For 6 months its store closing sale... and the other 6 its a bankruptcy sale. They pay those guys $50 a day to stand out there... So it must be working! That just says how smart pensacola is...

I've seen them for the last 6 years

I've been living here since '97, and they've been doing it ever since. I think they got in trouble for constantly advertising as "going out of business" so it became "inventory liquidation" and now "bankruptcy".

If bankruptcy takes as long as it takes our government to deport an illegal...you will see them for another 6 years.

From what I've heard they sell furniture for other businesses that are goingunder.

That would explain the continuous "going out of business" sign...:banghead

Whatever you do, don't shop for furniture there. We boought something from them and it was a horrible experience, it took them weeks to deliver something that was supposed to be in stock, and it was the wrong item, then it was redelivered damaged, then wrong item again. We will never shop there again.

I fell for it once and went in to see what bargins I could find.

Not only were the prices high, but as high or higher than

most stores around here:doh

I see them all the time and wonder how they can go out of business that many times. Wife and I just bought new furniture and was a great experience at Pace Furniture. I would recommend them to anyone, we had a problem with one of the pieces and they corrected the problem right away.

I heard on the radio today that 20% of all inmates at TX prisons are illegal and when they've finished their sentence they just let 'em go.

WTF?
