Rep Power: 14 | Re: PC Marketing and KBL America Unite So what is the meaning behind this? Is UWE finally going bellyup, as rumors have speculated.. What becomes of KBL America? I thought KBL had a foot hold here? Now what becomes of Future Industries and their hold of KBL? If PC is now exclusive, what becomes for FI to support...Ergoline? Wow, this fading industry is shrinking more each day.. |
