does anybody know what's going on with them? are they closing?

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

I was stunned when I saw the vastness of the equipment going up for auction. Aren't they too big to fail?

Anyone can go down - anytime, even in a "normal" business environment (pre COVID).
These days and times are not normal in any way. I wish any of us a good future but it will continue to be challenging.

I heard they are restructuring and leaving another one of their facilities open.  Could be wrong.

Didn't they have another facility close when they were printful?

Hey Ron!
Did you close?
Thanx,
Pierre

They were ooshirts, then bought or renamed or changed directions.
Looks like equipment from both production facilities is going.

That's right, it's hard to keep track of everything.

You going shopping?

Nobody is too big to fail if money is mismanaged.

Was thunking about it, but no $$$. Spent it all on the DTG line. The embroidery machines are tempting though!

Going to place bids on a bunch of things, might win one or two. Shipping may be a deal breaker tho

i've been watching this for a while now. and as it's gotten closer to the auction, understandbly folks are super pumped about this auction.

I suspect things are going to sell for a ton more than needed, because equipment manufacturers are so backed up right now.

Unless you're an automaker anyway. I've been to a couple of large auctions and it was amazing to me that it could all come down so fast. But, after a few more years under my belt, it made sense.
