    We must keep in mind the share price of SCY and EBO, were very close in, I think, 1995.
    So 10,000 SCY then had market value of $5,900.Same today,
    while 10,000 EBO is worth $183,000 today.

    Now that must focus any long term SCY shareholder's attention.
    Tended to focus mine lol. And what you said to me at one of the CHCH meetings too.
    I don't follow EBO but the difference would now be even greater.

    Yes it is a shame, and I think they will just continue to meander along as a company with the finance side of the business propping up the rest.
    I rarely go into Smith's City, but when I do (especially the Colombo Street store) there just never seems to be many customers there, but always lots of staff. Whereas places like Harvey Norman are always busy and the stores seen much more vibrant.

    Steve’s more of an IT guy but he’s probably right.

    SCY will never be cheap as

    For education purposes always worth watch train wrecks .... even if it’s only to recognise the next one when it comes along

    Smiths City will be like Dick Smith by early 2019. History. Can't turn around a failing business that doesn't even know what it wants to be or who it's target customers are. stuff.co.nz/business/10682…

    I note he refers to his experience with Paper Plus.
    They struggle too.
    No magic there either.

    I was being nice and didn’t mention that connection. The MTC chart doesn’t look too flash either.

    Wonder what brings these execs to NZ .....Warehouse etc.

    At least most of what he said was true

    Yes the English execs have a poor record here and in Australia .Great at talking the talk,but can not walk the walk.
    The South Africans are performers.
    Store staff engaging the customer is difficult, when the customer does not come into the store.

    Looking for a bar fridge for over Xmas.
    Google. Leemings ………….45 litre...$249 and $269.
    …………..Mitre 10...…….....112litre.$299.
    …………..Harvey Norman...115 litre.$295...50 litre.$249.
    …………..Smiths City...…...Haier 50 litre.$349...75 litre.$319
    …………...Warehouse...…….Daewoo.140 litre.$239.
    Yes you have guessed right.Looks as though Warehouse will be engaging me as a customer.

    Loved his comments about out of date IT systems.
    Previous Chairman Craig Boyce, would love that,considering he is and has been chairman of Datacom for some years.

    I see your morbid fascination with this stock continues . I had a good read of the announcement and a glance at the financials. Was initially tempted to get in at 27.5 (I exited a while back in the 60's and high 50's) but after glancing the financial realised I have plenty of time to get back in if I want to and may not need to at all.
