There are brokers who are unaware of the mechanics of shorting. He just doesn't know. Also, they have a vested interest in not delivering your certs. You can sell them anywhere and he might be afraid that they will lose the selling commision. For all others, ask for your certs, the brokers DON'T need to know why. You have a right, just say you want them, that's all.

Tell them you bought this great looking 8 1/2" x 11" picture frame and it looks so so empty with nothing in it and how wonderful it would look with that beautiful eagle and all that pretty green trim amd the fancy seal and the big bold COCONINO S.M.A., INC. with the certification that you have xxx gazillion shares on it and how great it would look on your dining room wall so you can gaze at it while you are eating ... (or, if you are kinky, on your bedroom wall so you can gaze at it while you are ...). Did I win the longest run-on sentence award?

Is he sending you the certs, or are you going to have to argue with him to get them? They must send them if you demand them.

They can get you the Certs if you want, in all probality
they just think they know whats best for you. (in a perfect
world, right?) Lets face it, you get the certificates, you
can then do what you want with them. You just walked away
with their ability to make a profit if you sell them on your
own.
To All: Whatever anyone has done, took the money and ran or
whatever, takes nothing away from what C$MA is worth or is
going to be worth! Think about this, if you invested $75,000
in CSMA when this thread fisrt started, today it would be
worth $320,000 right now! Would you hold or sell?
I have not sold one share. That's me. But whatever you do,
C$MA is going to go up and down.(IMO mostly up.) So ride it
the way you wish, There is money to be made whichever way
you choose!
I've called for my certs several times, I have some on the
way and some just ordered. (I assume,as I have signed papers
from the broker 3 times.) So in that respect I consider myself
to be long! I don't want to risk getting in and out. Like
others, sometimes its just not worth the trouble. Decide for
yourself. I am going to watch C$MA make me some serious MONEY!
BTW I plan to see an extra $5000 in my "account" today.

Let's have fun! Make money! And not get so worried about what
everyone else is doing! Some out there are not dumb enough to
tell you what they are planning on doing. They are sitting
back and waiting to buy your shares when you get spooked.
IMHO I don't want to be left out when we hit $20!

Happy investing!

go,go,go,go....Go, Go, Go, Go....GO, GO, GO, GO....

C$MA!!!!!

Hey Jeff,

Your broker probably doesn't understand what naked shorting is, he is also probably afraid he will lose his commission if you obtain certs, (as you don't have to sell through him once you have them), and of course there is the outside possibility his own firm is shorting the stock and he do's or doesn't know that either....but one thing is for sure, they are in street name, that being the name of your brokerage, not yours.
