Core Power Technologies

Does anyone know, is Core Power Technologies still around? I was considering purchasing (2) Ec1200’s but don’t want to be in a holding pattern for the next year. Are they or (Mark) still in existence? What’s the lowdown or suggestion of comparable item.

I know this situation is extremely frustrating. However, 

If you've ever been involved in the sale/purchase of a business, you would know it takes time for both parties to go through EVERYTHING (Due Diligence) and both parties are typically bound by Confidentiality. I can't answer whether that includes not taking your calls, but everyone knows Mark has serious health issues, which stress is known to add to

As a thought, since you have waited this long, why not give it a couple weeks before seeking legal action

Having owned Furman, PS Audio Premier Power Plant and 3 CTPs, I know how viable the product is. Someone is/will take advantage of buying the company, and all that we've gone through will be a distant bad dream

 I think you missed some of amg56 point.
If you read the post prior it welcomed,nay, encouraged people to call or write.
This amg56 has obviously done with little joy to be had.

No matter what takes place during a business ownership transfer communication is still paramount.

I, too, tried to contact Mark, but got only a recorded message, and no response to my query.
Oh well, so much for working with small manufacturers.
Lesson learned.

@tweak1 I understand about due diligence having been and engineer in Tyco in the late 1990's when takeovers were rife, and due diligence was the buzz word and we worked like navvies to get it done. (Tyco was then called Take Your Company Over).

But communication was key with all employees and customers regarding the company being assumed and the Tyco business involved. This was done efficiently and professionally (even if the President and CFO of Tyco were jailed for fraud).

The issue is communication. I have a lot of money tied up (Since February 2018) and I would like it back. No other company would be allowed to act this way in Australia. We have comprehensive consumer safeguards to protect against, what is fraudulent behaviour.

if you read ALL my posts on this forum (except the last 3), they have been in support of CPT and Mark, and against some hostile posts). now it is I who has been done unto by someone I believed in.

Do not expect me to be graceful and forgiving of this behaviour.

From my perspective as one having been adversely affected by such dealers and manufacturers like that presented by CPT, one usually gets a radio silence response. I’m confused as to why CPT continues to stoke to flames with illusory promises of a potential buyer.

When there is a bonafide offer or interest by a third party to acquire a company’s assets, including IP, one doesn’t hear a word about the ongoing transaction behind the scenes until after the deal is done. In fact, from my dealings in doing due diligence of such acquisitions, the parties are usually bound by a confidentiality agreement that bars the parties from even discussing the most superficial aspects of the review. The reasons stem from concerns of not negotiating in good faith if such disclosures were made. All of this leads me to believe that as well-intended the above posts are about a prospective buyer, it’s not credible.
