Who liquidates the liquidators?
qui liquidators liquidators
I dunno, coast guard?
Lumber Liquidator liquidators.
…man, I hope they don’t go under.
How can a lumber business go out of business with lumber prices in the last few years. Shouldn't they be printing money
Turned out, selling cheap Chinese material compromised with formaldehyde wasn't the bargain it was made out to be...
Well, for one thing, if you position yourself as a liquidator or selling stuff for a bargain, and your prices are the exact same as the rest of the market, then you really don't have anything to offer. I'm assuming that's what happened to them. Lumber is so damn expensive that they have no bargain value anymore. Why would you go to a lumber liquidator if you are paying the exact same amount as anywhere else?
Not if the owners have any character
Honestly, turning timber into liquid was never a viable business model. The use cases for a liquid form of wood are almost nonexistent outside of bizarre hobbies or fetishes I'd frankly rather not know about.
Haha paper mills go brrrrrrrrrrrrr
How would you know? All the paper mills I've ever seen had 3 shifts 7 days a week, and lots of lights.
I remember the founder guy going on prime time TV and lying about having way above the limit of cancer causing chemicals in their flooring.
That was almost ten years ago. Good riddance.
Damn, I got my flooring from there. They had great deals
Yeah, I'm looking to buy flooring soon and, for the stuff I want, they're like 50¢/sq.ft. cheaper than Floor & Decor. I guess I'd better go ahead and get it quick!
Fool me once, Lumber Liquidators.
aw fuck. they bought our good local lumber store. I hope that doesn't get closed.
The irony of this.
