KYbass1276 Posted April 10, 2007 Posted April 10, 2007 HMM......... Wonder how that will affect Berkley products? I don't know how it will effect Berkley but it won't effect me. I don't buy pure fishing products. I did in the past but not any more Quote

Guest avid Posted April 10, 2007 Posted April 10, 2007 I predict that in 10 years the entire world will be owned by one company. I can't wait to buy stock in "Big Brother holdings Inc." I would put up a smiley, but I'm not sure I'm kidding. Quote

I would put up a smiley, but I'm not sure I'm kidding. Avid Big brother holding alredy owns every thing they just havent went public yet... Quote
Guest Bountiful_Waters Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 I do not think that Jarden (Coleman) will have a negative effect. The marketing should improve and along with it, new and improved products to market. Remember, companies that are swallowed up usually have some nasty looking numbers which gives some leverage on the proposed offer. Chrysler is in that situation now. Should get better. Quote
SWIFF Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Ya might know this would happen just 3-4 days after sending in a 5600D5 ABU for repair/evaluation. Wonder if I'll ever see it again.... :- Quote
Super User .ghoti. Posted April 11, 2007 Super User Posted April 11, 2007 Seems like Frenzy cranks are always on sale. I'm not complaining, I like them. Avid, of course, has his own unique spin on it. ;D But, the big fish always eat the smaller fish. It may work out nicely for us, if the new owners keep up the R&D. At the least, as long as they keep making Power Worms, I'll be happy. Cheers, GK Quote
JT Bagwell Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 I really doubt that you guys will see any changes. I say "you guys" because I don't really buy any of their stuff. JT Bagwell Quote
