    “Where did the money go?”
    I likely have a pretty good answer: it didn’t go anywhere. They are specifically filing for what’s called “Chapter 11” Bankruptcy. This type of bankruptcy allows for the protection and retention of certain capital for the purpose of redistribution and reorganization without having to resort to complete liquidation of all assets. This allows them to continue to pay debts without losing all control to the court. Likely, this money will resurface in obscure (but legal) ways as they weasel their way out of future liability.

    • @Eserchie
      @Eserchie 2 года назад

      Legally, Fraud requires there to be some degree of deliberate failing or misleading - Its not fraud if the company intended to follow through, and made it's best efforts to do so, but still failed. The company is left with a debt to refund the money received, due to failure to provide the good or service the money was paid for. Unless they were deliberately misleading about their ability to build and deliver PCs, or made no efforts to build the PCs, they aren't liable for any debt beyond a full refund unless the sales contract includes failure penalties (unlikely, since it would be based on artesians T&Cs, you usually only see that on actually negotiated contracts). So, they OWE people money. But you see, the fundamental thing about bankruptcy, the very thing that it IS, is saying you owe more money than you have or can get by selling all your stuff. So all the stuff gets sold, and money gets paid out to everyone they owe it to in an order of priorities - and customer refunds are not high on that list. Bank debts will probably get paid, building lease might get paid, suppliers waiting on outstanding invoices for parts might get some of what they are owed, employees (at least in NZ, not certain in USA) will probably get all their pay (unless business is badly in the red). Owners and investors of the business get nothing.

      It will likely go through. And really a lot of people will be pissed. Not only the customers/content creators that got fucked over by this. But other custom computer manufacturers would be pissed. All because these assholes got away with stealing millions in a bankruptcy. They will have a harder time making sells. All because people's trusts has been damaged.
      Now I know this may not be the case. Yet it will cause a minor shake up. Even may cause a small drop in Custom PC sells. But it won't be major. After all. GPU pricing is already doing that. On top of everything else going up. Because of a conflict that everyone told that one country to not do it. Because it is stupid. But they did it anyway and proved to be bigger fools than a certain president who can ride a bike properly.

    A company gets big enough going bankrupt is more like taking a wee break. I worked in a Sony Centre that was franchised to a family owned company that at one point had the Sony Centre and 5 other stores that were home gift, bridal and furniture plus a sizeable warehouse. When they went "under" just over 100 employees were made redundant and all but one of their stores and the warehouse were shuttered. The one store they had left was open for business a week later and they pulled it off by having a different business name, transferring ownership of that business to their kids and making sure any properly valuable stuff was either in the warehouse or in the store with the different name above it's door. Sure their business shrunk somewhat but the flashy cars, big houses and the properly valuable stuff was protected and who cares about 100+ ppl being out of work with zero notice. Hell, going "bankrupt" even protected them from getting into trouble with the Tax man as it was screwing VAT that put them in the crapper in the first place.

      Thats why I said its a learning experience. You have to be careful with who you spend money with.
      And to look on the bright side, at least this was a relatively low amount of money (1k-3k i would imagine). Ive seen people lose 75k+ to a company that went bankrupt.

    I'm going to leave this as anonymous as I can.
    There is a guy that I've been supporting and being a mod for for a while now and a group helped him get a new PC which was done through artesian (the group helps out veterans and currently serving for those who want to know). A build was done and gift subs were done to put better parts in.
    When the PC finally got delivered it came without the 2TB m.2 nvme as well as the upgraded RAM capacity (basically gift subs were done to add in an m.2 nvme and to double the RAM) It's not a huge drawback for the build but it what it meant was all the gift subs which was around the 70+ mark was all for nothing.
    This was before the change of pricing of gift subs and before the bankruptcy.

    When an entity files bankruptcy, anyone who feels they have a claim can submit that claim to the court that is supervising the bankruptcy. Lenders, vendors, contractors, employees, customers, tax authorities, etc. The court then decides an equitable distribution of the assets. If the filing deadline hasn't expired, anyone who was wronged should look into submitting their claim.

    The fact that all items in a single location are being sold as single lots seems suspicious to me. It drastically reduces the amount of people who would be willing to bid on it, making it easier for the original owners to buy through a shell company to pick up where they left off.

      But auctioning a load of stuff off individually then arranging either shipping or pickup takes a lot of time and effort which someone has to be paid for, that payment has to come out of the proceeds, so selling in one lot is likely to generate more money to pay off the company debts. At least it is being auctioned, so should be some sort of market value.

    SOP/according to bankruptcy laws in most, if not every country. This is why you buy everything having substantial value with credit card. Credit card companies have insurance for (among other things) seller going bankrupt.
    After bankruptcy is filed - at least in Finland - you have to inform, that seller is no more the company, but agent handling the bankruptcy. Caveat for buyer: no return policy and prices are VAT excluded, so you have to factor in -20% in sticker price in order to bankrupt company not profiting on your purchase.
