Time to close up shop

Best of luck in the future!

 

It's absolutely none of my business, but why not try to sell the business as a whole?

Buying an established, viable business for not much more than the price of their assets should be considered a bargain.

 

Best of wishes out to your wife and a speedy recovery.

Family must come first and it's a dedicated and brave person to do what you are doing.

Stay in touch. Stop back in from time to time.

​

 

Hope your wife recover soon, best wishes to you!

 

Sorry to hear that, but health is more important. Good luck and I pray your wife recovers

 

Wow Bruce I'm really sad to hear about your wife's health issues getting worse. You've built a great business doing quality work, sorry to see you go but I completely understand. If I can help let me know.

 

Sorry to hear this brother best wishes!

 

Wow. Thats heartless. Whats wrong with you people?

 

Wow

 

Really? This is the post you decide to get technical about? I've seen the supposed standards violated so many time it's ridiculous. You obviously have discretion in your decisions, use it wisely.

 

Kicking a guy on his way out the door is in bad taste. Shameful.

 

its kinda like when someone comes into my shop and wants some kind of memorial cut vinyl for there car, truck, motorcycle, a couple more for friends and then wants them really cheap because of what they are for....

there a rules for selling stuff here, this is a business, get over it...

 

Not everything in life is about a dollar.

 

Yes, it is ALL about the dollar. Always was, and always will be.

When someone comes to you for help and guidance, one has the ability to either help or turn their cheek. In this case, they just took the callous way and played the rulebook card.

So many people are new here, especially the administrators, that they have not grown up or gotten to know it's membership, the way Fred did. Fred had many rules he chose to ignore, in cases such as this. I talked with him on some of tnem.... and although he disagreed with some of the moves, he took the humane way out.

Our emotions will say one thing, but at the end of the day, if you do not care for your membership, they made an executive decsion, however distasteful and shallow, it's their sandbox.

Perhaps, some premium member could list the things for sale for him and possibly help another fellow sign person out, when down on his luck.

 

So what you are saying is that it's up to you how the owner of this site chooses to dispense his or her charity.

There are rules for selling stuff here. It's how they make money. I'm pretty sure the owner of this site does not get rich from the profits made here.

I just love how righteous people get when they are talking about someones else's business/money/charity.

Yeah, well think about Nuagedesigns. His WHOLE life is upside down right now..... and if that doesn't bother ya, then just turn your cheek. It wasn't his decision for his wife to become ill and close down the shop. As you said it's not up to the righteous people to voice their opinions no more than it's your right to voice and tell others off in a situation like this. Who cares what YOU think, the vast majority of older members know your MO, and like already said by you, it ain't your choice. However, here's a chance for the Administrators, Mods and owner to make one little exception and they flubbed it. So, like everything else, we live with it. In the end, just get over yourself.

 

Right, and this is how the new owners decide to exercise their discretion. I have done numerous "waste of time" memorials, and a lot of times I don't charge anything. I choose to compassion over a dollar sometimes. And the point is the rules around here are not enforced on an even basis.
