I tried to buy a replacement fur hood liner for my wife.
The online rep wanted $80.00 for a piece of animal skin!
I told him that was far too much and asked if he could sell it for his cost since we paid a ton of money years ago for the full coat.

He said he wasn't "allowed" to.

I called BS and told him to forget it. I badmouth the company whenever I can.

Canada Goose Holdings (GOOS-T) is KING!!

Disappointing market debut from Roots (ROOT-T) stands in sharp contrast to fellow Canadian clothing firm Canada Goose Holdings, which went public earlier in the year amid brisk demand that saw its stock pop 40 per cent on day one. Jim Gabel, chief executive officer, declined to discuss the matter, instead e-mailing a prepared statement which called the IPO "a significant milestone," in the company's history.

Unlike Canada Goose, there were signs early on that Roots was receiving a cool reception from institutional investors. According to Reuters, the company originally sought to price the stock between $14 to $16. Underwriters eventually settled on $12. Some would-be investors felt that the valuation of the company was still on the high side at that price. The fact that Roots itself was not raising any fresh funds in the offering, to be put toward growth initiatives, was another red flag. "The Street always views secondary offerings with more suspicion than it does with primary offerings," said David Baskin, president of Baskin Wealth Management, who did not invest in the stock. Lead underwriter TD also declined to comment.
