BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted November 8, 2009 BassResource.com Administrator Posted November 8, 2009 Well once again I'm hearing rumors that I'm "prepping" the site in order to make it more appealing to buyers; or that I have intentions of selling it. So let me come out in the open and say it.... I have NO intentions of EVER selling this site, period! I NEVER have either. It's simply not an option for me. I'd rather shut 'er down than see somebody ruin it (no, I have no plans to shut it down either). So for all of those who are speculating how much this site is worth - it doesn't matter. IT'S NOT FOR SALE!! I've had this site for over a dozen years now, but it seems ever since the *** boom, I hear this rumor every year or so. But I'm still here, still going strong, and have no intentions of leaving. So... can we get back to fishing now? 1 Quote
mattm Posted November 8, 2009 Posted November 8, 2009 I believe it is not for sale, but everything is FOR SALE! Hope you hang on to it. Quote
Super User Long Mike Posted November 8, 2009 Super User Posted November 8, 2009 Everything I own is for sale. 8-) Quote
Big Mike in Fl Posted November 8, 2009 Posted November 8, 2009 agreed, everything I own is for sale...expect my dog, I don't care how much you gave me, you couldn't get him. Quote
joshuaryan Posted November 8, 2009 Posted November 8, 2009 Makes me wonder how much this site is worth. If I had to guess, I'd say about $15,000. Quote

Super User Gatorbassman Posted November 8, 2009 Super User Posted November 8, 2009 Makes me wonder how much this site is worth. If I had to guess, I'd say about $15,000. Glenn has been offered over 6 figures for it several times. His answer is always the same. "It's not for sale." Personally, I wouldn't give 5 bucks for it. Quote

Super User fishfordollars Posted November 8, 2009 Super User Posted November 8, 2009 With all the headaches I'm sure some days it could be purchased for a song. Good to know there are far more better days than those though. Jack Quote
Super User Dan: Posted November 8, 2009 Super User Posted November 8, 2009 just wondering but what sort of entity would want to buy it? Quote

Super User SirSnookalot Posted November 9, 2009 Super User Posted November 9, 2009 Makes me wonder how much this site is worth. If I had to guess, I'd say about $15,000 This number comes from very thin air and I'm surprised to see it. What is insulting is not the actually number but just the posting of an opinion after Glenn stated this site is not for sale. Not being an insider and not privy to the assets of this site or any company it is impossible to attach dollar figure. Quote
aceman387 Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 maybe if the 25,000 of us got together. oh. nevermind we cant even decide who makes the best braided line without getting in fights. Quote
Super User flechero Posted November 10, 2009 Super User Posted November 10, 2009 I have NO intentions of EVER selling this site, period! ......... IT'S NOT FOR SALE!! Good thing, can you imagine if RW bought it??? He's bring back public hangings, err I mean public bannings! ;D ;D BAN EM' We'd be back to 5000 members in about a month! ;D ;D just having some fun, Kent! Quote
slider head Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Just going to comment.....cause sometimes that's just what I do. I have not been here to long but I have developed quite a fondness of this site, the people on here and especially those who run it! Speaking for myself I just know a-lot of that would be lost if someone else....especially a business were to take it over. It would be like what Storm did to the wiggle wart, thunderstick or Mann's to my favorite crank. Glenn refers to this site as home and it is in many ways.....but home would lose its comforts if it had a new owner! Besides that my "Your World Consumed" comments would be lost. 8-) 1 Quote
Low_Budget_Hooker Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 He is ,however, renting his mods out. Anyone with a sister, friend or cousin that works at Hooters, or cheers professionally for any NFL, MLB or NBA team. I'm available. Cheap. 1 Quote

Super User Dan: Posted November 11, 2009 Super User Posted November 11, 2009 just wondering but what sort of entity would want to buy it? Glenn? anyone? I really am curious what type of company/person would have an interest in the site. Lure companies? Quote
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted November 11, 2009 Author BassResource.com Administrator Posted November 11, 2009 They've been from all walks of life. Investors, major tackle companies, and venture capitalists. Really it doesn't matter. I'm not interested. Quote
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted June 6, 2011 Author BassResource.com Administrator Posted June 6, 2011 Thought I'd resurrect this thread again, since once again I'm getting asked if I'm selling the site - and have had a few unsolicited offers recently. So for anyone trying to start rumors, or if there's anyone reading this that's interested in buying the site: The answer remains the same. Quote
