Hearing Rumors

Hearing rumors and seen some writing about the possibility of Guardian taking over some segments of PGW.
Any info out there?

Re: Hearing Rumors

Rumor has it that SGC will have your doors shutter at the end of the year.

Re: Hearing Rumors

Don't be concerned about rumors. Guardian is great when it comes to producing float. Rumor has it that the auto glass side can't find its butt with both hands behind its back. Just sayin.

Re: Hearing Rumors

Unless you buy from either, what difference does it make. whether it's true or not?

Re: Hearing Rumors

I would rather GAURDIAN buy into PGW than safelites HIGH ridiculously high priced glass

Silly question. Being part of LYNX I would like to know the status of the TPA.

Re: Hearing Rumors

Kryger seen talking to Mygrant in KC ,

mygrant is not in KC why were they there this past week?????

Re: Hearing Rumors

Lynx bought the TPA mess from Kryger. Kryger uses the buying power supplied by shops against those same shops cutting deals with agents. good if mygrant is different.

Re: Hearing Rumors

Indamuff, what does that have to do with anything? Wasn't it you last fall who was just sayin that PGW was buying up the Safelite stores in the Midwest and were going to call it Safe-P ?

Re: Hearing Rumors

No, Web-sta, it is not Safe-P. It is P-Safe. LET ME SAY THIS: rumor has it that the communication problem may be fixed soon. Will I be notified when it is?

Re: Hearing Rumors

This isn't about communication, or didn't anybody tell you? It is about the rumor that Guardian is buying PGW, or at least parts of it. Whether it is the P the G or the W, which ever part, it could have a big affect on our industry. And seeing Mygrant talking to Kryger in KC, apparently adds substance to the rumor. Add to that the fact that Glass week is being held in Florida in September, near the Lynx offices, and it all adds up. Can't you see that?

Re: Hearing Rumors

Rumor has it that the baby Prince of Cambridge will be named after Guardian royalty: Billings. Not too shabby! Just sayin'

Re: Hearing Rumors

Isn't it time for the webbie to delete this nonsense?

Re: Hearing Rumors

We've heard at PGW works 28, along with potential layoff........... cutting overhead to sell operations to Gurdian

Re: Hearing Rumors

At Works 1 they been trying to downsize jobs by combining some and firing people. Union workers and Non Union workers. Hell they are even building stock, which was never done.

Re: Hearing Rumors

same thing here at crestline, i don't if its guardian or who but they are going to sell or at least try

Re: Hearing Rumors

i heard today safelite is buying wallmart they will have installs at the tire center go figure.

Re: Hearing Rumors

I don’t see how Guardian automotive division could possible take on any more business. They are currently hand to mouth on delivering product with all of their customers. Taking on additional responsibility would just sink them. They are a poorly managed group.

Re: Hearing Rumors

Didn't they try that with Pep Boys or Sears years ago?

Pep Boys

That would be PepBoys as they called it the BAY PARTNERS, oh it sounds good on paper, but try and use that option when its raining out, and you will be waiting for 1 - 2 hours in order to install a 30 minute glass. When I was there after 2 times of waiting I quit telling customers about it.
