Making a personal visit with an appointment ahead of time will give Gino a chance to get his head together, and will give you two an opportunity to see what all is involved, to check over the books if possible, and to allow all involved a chance to see if this will work out for everyone concerned.
Cheers---

I think going down to LSB and talking about the business is an excellent suggestion. In fact, why not invite King Oliver I to go with you. He obviously has an interest in shoes and peraps he might be interested in investing something besides time. Or, at the leas,t lending his lovely Gina as a model to promote the line?

Rep Power: 6 Spring I'm new here but I'm working on it
Default The Little Shoe Box is closing for good!!!

im sorry to break it up to you all guys but i just got a mail saying this:

"Thank you very much for your enquiry. It is with regret that I have to inform you that The Little Shoe Box is in the process of closing for business. Due to this we will not be able to process any further orders.



We are aware that our reputation goes before us as a highly regarded and unique company. For this reason we are currently in the process of negotiating the future of The Little Shoe Box. We are considering various offers to buy and continue The Little Shoe Box, however as the company stands at the moment we are beginning the termination of our production. We will be sorry to leave many very old and loyal customers and letting a long established company that defines the London and international scene such as this close.



Finally I would like to thank you the customer for your interest and support over the years and to say keep up the search for that perfect pair, we can assure you they are out there!



Kind Regards,

Spyros Spyrou


SO SO SAD :(

:o
I guess action is required quickly - before they let their craftsmen go. Without them it won't be much of a business.

I do hope they find the right buyer. - I worry that an importer of plastic fetish shoes may buy the business, and use the name and reputation to sell a low quality product.

At least the letter that Spring received tends to answer some of the questions that we all may have had. But now is the time to strike while the iron is hot before their employees are layed off and scattered to the 4 winds. It sounds like the owners of the LSB are in a hurry to dump the business as quickly as possible.
Cheers---
