I’ll also echo mattys post, as I understand, it was well out of Justin’s hands, and, (believe it or not) he got screwed over as much as every one else

Was completely out of his hands by the time this had happened to the business, Justin did a lot for the industry and this forum and held some good events back in the day.. 

I didn’t realise he’d sold out.
Always seemed an odd (and greedy) business model to me, stack-em-high-and-sell-em-cheap, essentially devaluing any brands they were flogging, whilst simultaneously pissing off small local retailers nationwide. 
They were a terrible outfit at the end - I wasn’t aware of any point where they changed ownership or MO though.

Hi

Jonesie here, I'd like to answer this and some of the other comments. But this is not the right chat as this is for ArbSurplus. So I'll post something up under my profie in a seperate chat if that's OK.

I asked about the relationship because I saw the fliplines at Jones but didn’t buy because I didn’t like Jones. Now I see some at yours (from memory, the same colour, the same length choices, the same lack of grabs) but I’d feel uneasy about buying if I suspected Jones creditors were owed and left wanting and stock that could have eased their suffering had been subject to some kind of disappearing act. Forgive my cynicism if that isn’t the case. 

Hi, you do make a good point here, we did sell them as did everyone else they are Stein fliplines. We only ever got them from Fletcher Stewart as they are Stein, thats why you are seeing them on this site.

Hope that helps.
