Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Air Models / October 2005Flair to open shop in Warwick ?
Any know if it's true that Flair will be opening a shop/trade counter in Warwick this November ? I thought Flair were bankrupted earlier this year, or before. > Any know if it's true that Flair will be opening a shop/trade counter in > Warwick this November ? Yes and no. Flair declared themselves bankrupt (went into liquidation or whatever) and then immediately started up a new company with almost the same name with Flair in the title. I suspect a lot of companies were left owed money which is a real bummer for them especially when they see effectively the same company still trading. I've got a lot of time for Flair products but I really think this sort of practice should be clamped down. Cheers, Nigel I agree, it happened to me, a company stuffed me up for 22k leaving me fully stuffed. They opened up the next day, under another name. Lousey bastards. nobody got a cent. > Yes and no. > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > Nigel > I agree, it happened to me, a company stuffed me up for 22k > leaving me fully stuffed.

It's like creating another ship and moving to it before the first ship sinks with all debts on deck. "Nothing to do with us!" cry the crew of the new ship. It is true that bankrupted people cannot run another company for several years but they just get their top arse-licker from the old company to run the new one as a puppet. I'm sure it is such a common practice that the only reasons politicians don't outlaw it is because so many have benefited from it. Care to swap names? Not likely, I still owe the tax man, the vat man, & my accountant. >> I agree, it happened to me, a company stuffed me up for 22k >> leaving me fully stuffed.
