Guest mick bowler Posted December 26, 2010 Report Posted December 26, 2010 They tell me pipa take 30% and its jos thone and mark De cock that are the major shareholders. 30% and 5% to the agent that arranges the sale. Would of thought that the Gyselbrechts were the main shareholders.

Guest mick bowler Posted December 26, 2010 Report Posted December 26, 2010 I was told different by a good source but that could be wrong? It could be right, certainly a good profit making company, i just thought it was the 3 Gyselbrechts and Tom Van Cauwenberghe

Guest homestead Posted December 27, 2010 Report Posted December 27, 2010 if anyone of us on here had a chance of making that sort of money for good or bad birds we would take it. If the Chinese have money to burn let them. Congratulations.....Bill all the way to the bank
Guest IB Posted December 27, 2010 Report Posted December 27, 2010 It might be that the future of the sport now lies in countries like China & Taiwan. In the early days here wasn't it just a few gents with money who were responsible for introducing the foundation stocks for the old well known strains?
