Let's not allow all of this discussion about the former dealers to divert our attention from the question that's most important to this thread: is TSIG a good investment, or is it not? These dealers have no formal claim on TSIG; instead, their claim is on DP Enterprises. TSIG is in the process of acquiring the assets of the former Compact Connection, Inc. (now DP Enterprises), but this does not place TSIG under any obligation to these former dealers.
It's important to bear in mind that TSIG is a distinct company that will utilize the assets acquired from CCI by integrating those assets into a new corporate structure, management team, fulfillment strategy, and business plan. In other words, I think there are good reasons to doubt that any past operating failures CCI may have suffered should necessarily lead us to believe that TSIG will suffer the same problems going forward. The former dealers seem to be suggesting that the past problems will simply be reproduced in the future and will result in failure for TSIG. I think the picture is much more complex than this and that TSIG's future success or failure will depend on many factors, not just the past operating history of a single division that has been reorganized.
The point I want to make is this: while I sympathize with any dealers who may have suffered business failures in the past, and while I think it's important for TSIG investors to be aware of CCI's history, I also think it's imperative that we not focus so intently on this history that we lose sight of the bigger picture. The dealers are certainly not irrelevant to us as investors, but their story is not the only factor we need to keep in mind as we make our investment decisions.
For a longer, more detailed treatment of these issues -- with sharper focus on the potential I see in TSIG going forward -- please refer to my Post 343. You can find it at:

Best of luck to all. Let's stay focused on all of the many factors that will enable us to make the best investment decisions.
