Pancakes

[speakerman1]

Well I have made some sales. A few tape sales mostly new gear. Someone turned me onto some auctions for some pancakes. Some type I and some chrome plus shells also. I wanted to bid on it all but I have to wait. We have to buy the printer first. Then we will get the loader. I hope to be going full bore by the beginning of next year. I had to ask for investors on this deal. It is going to be a learning experience. I learned a lesson in another forum. I keep things very close to my chest. I won't do like I did with the start of this company.

It is OK. We will get it. I'm a little ahead of the game. More than I was yesterday. Thanks for the offer though.

Ihop or homemade? Good luck on your new tape endeavor.

 

[speakerman1]

Thanks for the support. Yes I guess you could say I'm jumping off the cliff a little higher. LOL

 

[Web Police]

So you bought enough pancakes of Maxell MX to load 100,000 cassettes. Kind of a tall cliff if you stacked em one pancake on top of another.

A stack like that would cost a ton for the strawberry preserves.

I did win the auctions. For pennies on the dollar. Which is good. I'm still bidding on more. Now to get equipment. My son is here so we may try the indie label thing when I find out how it is done. I have the tapes so that is a plus.

What is the news on the pancakes? You don't have to let the competiton know what you are up to, but we'd like to know a lil about it.

Well I have 1300 preloaded multi color type I and Type IIs sitting here. I have 5 boxes of chrome tape and Type I tape sitting in my garage. I have more preloaded shells coming. I have more tape coming. Bidding on more shells. Am looking hard at a loader. I'll know in a few days. Looking at a duplicator. I talked to my son and he agreed we should start signing up bands to do tapes for. So he is going to start that. Should have the shell printer next month. Also looking at a shell labeler. The shells I'm getting right now are suppose to be some of the best shells made. I have like 100 pancakes of tape and 1000 C-0 shells in the garage. 500 instant record shells. Have to find big rolls of splicing tape. This will be a different part of Phoenix Tapes. We are starting small. I can get some TDK Chrome tape. Have a lot to learn. Have to buy ink and the printer. I have 200 tapes to print. My graphic designer quit on me. He was good. We just couldn't keep him busy. So the bands will have to do their own J-cards and printing graphics. I have some ins. The norelcos and supplies and shrink wrap will be handled by the other part of Phoenix. We will go fully legit the 1st of next year. Dr.Bo has almost sold out of the metals. So we will have a place on the site for bands tapes that we do for people to buy. We will be growing I hope next year. People are still buying music and things they can do at home. I don't have minimum buys like everyone else does. Eventually I will do CDs also. Just not right now.

Not sure about television. Might trigger George Gobel flashbacks.

Well I got the stuff to put AC/ Heat in my garage today. Picked up a loader for a song. Shipping was crazy. So I have tape, shells, loader and a printer almost. Bought some already loaded. Have all the ink for the printer. I'm not use to youngins being around. LOL
Going to insulate above the garage. My garage is full of lumber, lighting and takeup reels, boxes, shells and a piece of junk boat anchor duplicator, air compressor. I hate spending money.

Might start learning to load Monday. Air dryer gets here today. Lots going on in my garage. For sure. I have to do an inventory before I start putting tape all over the floor. Brought everything in because of the storm. We won't get any I don't think. I need rain though.
