Reply To: Sad news about 4Ground going into Liquidation

Again all this is assumptions that the KS is dead and 4Ground are in serious trouble. Yet when asked they said it’s due to restructuring (why people won’t take that for an answer I don’t know. But it seems liquidation isn’t the usual way to do it). Ben has also stated that this hasn’t affected if the KS is going to be fulfilled and they still intend to ship.

BUT until we hear it from the horses mouth, we’re know nothing and wild speculation isn’t going to do anything good. So let’s all just wait and see (BTW I put in an order at the Weekend for some 4Ground buildings, and payment went to TYMEAGAIN Ltd which is exactly what they said was going on with the restructuring).

So what we do know is, 4Ground has restructured (happened on June 6th apparently), and has been absorbed into the parent company (so it’s not been bought out by another company), and they are still trading online and attending shows as normal (Ben and Helen were at the Phallanx show in St Helens last week), all of which do not happen if a company is going bust and wound up (as all stocks and assets are frozen at the time the company is liquidated as far as I know).

So what little evidence we DO have is things are going ahead exactly as 4Ground have said, and the rest is “fiction” until we actually hear differently from the owners. Sometimes the internet is it’s own worst enemy, but this “speculation” being caused may cause people to pause from making an order (and at the end of the day that’s money, so it DOES harm the company involved). So less theories, and more facts please 🙂
