Oddly, having a cup of coffee, I browsed the above link. The page (release dated 21 July to cover the autumn/winter season) refers to their stocking HA, but, unlike the other new brands referred to, HA is not included in the directory of brands that tells you where they are located.

Have they actually physically made it to the store?

Thanks, pycco. We must hope it works out well.

From the Final Results......"Hardy Amies ready-to-wear menswear to be stocked by Harvey Nichols from July 2006."

It's now on the Harvey Nichols website, see:-

Why not, indeed? See you in a month's time.

[haggis3000] 25/8/2006 21:03

Yep! Let's wait and see what Septembers announcement says?

[ladybird1] 25/8/2006 16:03

It's raining, I've been browsing. Long time since anything heard on this. I note SpaceNK still not listing HA perfume.

Ah well!

MMs' holdings from the last lot of selling cleared out (see the 60k sale), so offer price up. As we know only too well, these low volume small stocks very volatile. Doesn't say anything about the basic position of the business.

These MM's never cease to amaze me.....16.5K bought....60K sold...UP 33%...WHAT IS THAT ABOUT?????

[ladybird1] 08/8/2006 11:42

'Fraid so, too. If only for trade purposes, I'm sure they'd trumpet any deal. Reviewing strategy, negotiatiating deals, the weeks drag into months....

By-the-by, I notice Space still not listing them.

Ah well!

[damloy] 08/8/2006 09:17

The sound of silence!!!!! Not a good sign.

BTW I am really shocked at the fall with this share, if I wasnt fully invested I would average down.

[pictureframe] 01/8/2006 17:50

Hi All,

I had an email back from Tim, I would post it but I dont feel its right unless I get permission first. I am sure there is no problems by me saying that its still going to be stocked by Space and the fragrence is hoped to be stocked in other high street outlets soon.

Thanks your trouble, haggis. You would seem to have squared the circle with pictureframe- they still have stock as he discovered, but it's a discontinued line.

Interesting if you learn any different.

[haggis3000] 01/8/2006 15:54

I called space nk, they told me that they had 3 bottles left and that they would no longer be stocking it as it was "a limted edition of 500 bottles and that's all that woas make" when asked if in their view it was a test marketing excercise the guy said not as far as he knew, he repeated limited to 500. Couldbe duff info from him. Just called Ha and am a waiting a call back from good old Tim!

[ladybird1] 01/8/2006 12:20

I just rechecked the spacenk website and HRD is not included in its list of brands stocked. Can you tell me where I'm going wrong?

[pictureframe] 01/8/2006 12:07

Just to advise still selling fragrance to space nk, in fact there may be others stocking this shortly.

[haggis3000] 31/7/2006 15:09

I've written it off mentally and will be shocked (hopefully)if it goes anywhere. I'm going back to technical trading after my first and last forage in the world of fundamentals. I suck atit :-)

[ladybird1] 27/7/2006 14:46

Thanks, damloy. Overall, I suppose we shall just have to wait & see.

[damloy] 27/7/2006 11:21

You could be right....it was being retailed by 'Space NK' but not any longer....check out 'spacenk.co.uk'. It was very expensive though.

[ladybird1] 26/7/2006 16:56

Re the above, I thought I'd browse to see if I could find the HA fragrance anywhere, as I recall somebody noting it was out of stock where they were looking some time back. Can't find it at all. The HA website page has not been updated since the launch.

Has it tanked & been discontinued?

[ladybird1] 26/7/2006 14:48

I'm sure they'd in fact rush out a statement asap if they had anything to report - not for the benefit of shareholders, of course, but to boost the brand & any other negotiations they might have on.

Hence the concern. I wonder what happened to the deal with 'one of the world's largest homewares distributors'? It sounded imminent three months ago, so presumably has since died a quiet death as there was no reference to that kind of deal in the recent statement.

[damloy] 26/7/2006 13:00

Correct ladybird1.....what we need is an announcement of some progess in the roll-out to which they referred in their last statement. These things do take time but a modicum of urgency would be welcome....even an update statement would help.
