Actually mozerd I am more interested in buying the initial shares that are issued in GC. Why should GBLX go to the street and sell them for say $30 a share and net of underwriting only get $28.5 when they can get the full $30 from their shareholders? And you know the shares will probably double at the opening. So why not let the current shareholders benefit from this? I believe Gary Winnick is "shareholder friendly" and if enough shareholders show interest in buying the IPO we might get an allotment of say 1 share for every 5 of GBLX that we own.
