An open letter to Mr. Gilmore

[RandomH]

It should only cost you around $62.5 million to buy the company. That's assuming their books aren't as messed up as people think they are.

62.5 million divided by 3569 members = $ 17,511.91 each :!: :shock:

C'mon guys, Gilmore puts his pants on one leg at a time, just like the rest of us.

 

[magicpapa]

ill sign for ya, redemptions only :lol:

Either you guys seriously under estimate the value of the UD brand name...


Or you over estimate that thickness of my wallet.

or his head.. dude "THE GILMORE" is slow in response!!

 

[Pinbreaker]

Is Wossa a member on here?

Good thought, but what would he want with anything related to UD?

I guess he does love those USA sets, but thats another thing UD pissed away.

C'mon guys, Gilmore puts his pants on one leg at a time, just like the rest of us.

but when he puts his pants on he makes hit websites.

Or you over estimate that thickness of my wallet.

Or they are clueless as to how much real money it actually takes to run a successful trading card business, and by successful I mean not steps away from bankruptcy.

Running a simple business, such as a car wash or a liquor store isn't easy. Running a complex business, like a trading card manufacturer, is a nightmare.

How do you know? LOLZ

General rule of thumb when running a business is that you should be making 250k per employee. (that's on the low end) Upper Deck has 250 employees.

Thanked.

 

[bmc398]

Maybe the hit website made him?

 

[kentuckyderby]

excellent philosophical question to ponder

did the website make Gilmore OR did Gilmore make the website

good fortune cookie riddle

 

[Adamsince1981]

I'm a great furniture sales rep. I guess I should buy Lay-Z-Boy tomorrow.

I like the OP, but I think he got wasted while watching "The Social Network" and mis-understood the value of FCB.

 

[bouwob]

Maybe the hit website made him?

The excellent execution made the website, but the website also gave gilmore his stature in the industry. Neither one made either one, they both made each other.

 

[FortyFour]

There is some serious Gilmore man love going on in here.
