Sounds brilliant. Huge pricing power and a "must have" |

So into FTSE index it goes on next review? |
Case of hype over substance, I reckon. |
Yep

trcml-would you be kind to comment on the worth of investing here given the said tip |
ATG, tipped in SCSW, the share price having gone up this morning, I thought I'd experience the platform by bidding in an on-line auction today. I am familiar with using on-line and room-based auctions, both for property (real estate) and chattels. To register on thesaleroom.com I entered my contact details, also required to provide my credit card details. It wasn't made clear at the outset why I needed to provide the card details when I hadn't actually bought anything at that stage but after registration I read that it's a financial check: even so, the thought of my card details "lying around" on their system was worrying so I've deleted the card. After completing the registration, including verification, I searched for something to buy, I used to collect old postcards so as that's a market I've knowledge of I browsed the few upcoming lots. This is where it got confusing. Having found a lot I wanted to bid for, I entered my maximum bid. My maximum comfortably exceeded what seemed to be an existing bid from someone else. Next, I visited the auctioneer's site (via a link on TSR site) where I had to register my details there. I entered my TSR password and that got me a confirmation from the auctioneers. I selected the lot in the catalogue and placed an online bid in readiness. Thinking perhaps I shouldn't have placed another bid, I emailed the auctioneer to check that i wouldn't be bidding against myself. I didn't get a reply. The auction was this morning starting at 10am and just over an hour later the auctioneer got to my lot. By then the information indicated that the highest bid in anticipation was about £20 below my maximum bid so I increased my maximum on the auctioneer's website. My bid was successful, paying about £20 less than my increased maximum. I then contacted the auctioneer direct to ask how it worked from now on. The short answer is that the auctioneers have invoiced me for the total payment including the buyer's premium and will be sending me a revised invoice shortly for the cost of sending the item to me. The payment, however, is not made to TSR but direct to the auctioneer. I asked the auctioneer why I needed to provide my card details to TSR and they didn't seem to know, or rather I didn't understand what they said.
Overall, I found the requirement to provide my credit card details to TSR merely to register as unnecessary given that the actual payment for a successful bid is direct to the auctioneer. On TSR FAQs sentences that start with 'don't worry' I find amateurish, but that's just me. On the strength of my experience and adverse comments on TrustPilot I am not going to buy shares in ATG. The adverse comments on TP are mostly from experienced buyers who are critical of the increase in buyer's premium. ATG's stock response is to justify the increase in terms of expenditure on improving the platform, etc but why should buyers be expected to pay for that. Also, as anyone can browse TSR without registering and then visit the auctioneers' sites direct and register with that particular auctioneer there doesn't seem to be any point in going via ATG.
Currently, ATG is capitalised at £958M which seems a lot for a low barriers for entry business. Also it is not really a business - except in the context of helping in exchange for money - because really all ATG is doing is latching onto other businesses (ie, auction houses) that are doing all the hard work and via the internet are probably more than capable of building substantial mailing lists of prospective buyers without having to add more to buyer costs via the premium. |
on what index this is listed on- is it a small cap or 250 foosie- cant find the info anywhere? |
Good luck with that Smithie! |
so
worth £800 million while it produces £9 million from operations (I guess there are then hits to that for things like BOD costs)
looks a good short to me ! :-) |
I’m a big fan of this business.
Salty |
SS, what? they spend 200K buying a company for 5 million, well a shell. How can they settle anything like that with a fictitious value. That's the problem with AIM is has crook in it.
ATG still running? |
Where's post 500? |
Adventis Group plc is now a shell company (renamed Reabold) with zero assets. It has £201,000 of new loannote debt already spent covering the costs of taking over this shell throguh a CVA to (allegedly) settle the past £6.3m net creditor black hole racked up by previous management at 0.5-1.0p in 100p. There is a further £59,000 of new loannote debt and £59,000 new cash which has not been spent yet.
The old Adventis shares have been consolidated 7 for 1 into new Adventis shares. So there are now about 6.9m of them. That 7 for 1 consolidation may explain why dingbats thought the price should go up x7. But we have a commercial arm's length valuation as Adventis has also agreed a placing of £150,000 to issue 60m new shares at a price of 0.25p per new share. So the new shares are agreed as worth 0.25p. I think the share price going up x7 is just a careless algebra mistake! |
Is this the same old company with same insiders?... |
Had a quick look at this earlier. You sometimes see this type of rise after reinstatement of a share.
Anyway - my broker had not reinstated to trade on its system and by the time the marker was removed it looked like 1.5p to buy. In fact all the earlier buys look @1.5p and not the headline offer of .75p showing earlier.
Anyway - had a brief look at the results and what happened etc. Is the rise based on hot air?
Or is there some substance which I missed? |
