New Owner -- Introduction

**Anthony** · 03-03-2006, 07:46 PM

Community....

I can now officially confirm that I am the new owner of The Wholesale Forums. All of the paperwork has now been processed by both parties and I will take full control of the forum from this moment on.

Firstly, I'm sure that the whole community will join me in saying a big thank you to James who built this community from scratch and has been running it since late 04'. I wish him the very best of luck in the future and hope to see him still offering his advice and assistance to the community when time allows.

As most of you know I joined this forum back in June of 05' when there were about 1400 members (if I remember correctly). Since then it has really stepped up a gear and is now arguably the best Wholesaling Community on the web. I myself, as I am sure many others will agree have developed a special attachment to this community. The success of any forum in my opinion is its members, so take a bow guys.. and long may it continue!

I'm sure you are all dying to hear what I have in store for you guys over the coming weeks and months of me settling in. Over the coming days you will see a few structural changes as well as some changes to the "Selling Memberships" that we offer. Further to that will be a few personnel changes and (I hope) a few innovative ideas.

So for now, I just wanted to quickly let everyone know the situation and briefly give you an insight into my intentions for this site.

I really look forward to developing The Wholesale Forums & Associated Sites in the coming months and hope that all of you will be a part of this.

Thank you,

Anthony

Thank you indeed James, although you weren't much involved in the discussions, you were the one who started this forum and the beginning of this great community.

I want to congratulate Anthony and Harry with the purchase/take over of the forum, as we can be sure it remains in safe hands.

Nocturnal and I were first actively involved on the 411 forum, until the place became a place of scammers, as the moderators banned people trying to identify scammers.

Since the iPod deals started over here, the activity on the forum increased enormously. We nowadays have a booming market place over here for grey market sellers and buyers, and especially for people which cant afford to lose money it's in my opinion a nice place to start their businesses and increase knowledge.

I wish James, Anthony and Harry all the best and let's hope this community becomes even better!

I am quite new and so I don't know much about James, but well done to him bringing so many members here and built a successful community.

Good luck to Anthony and hopefully this forum will go on and on!
