agreed.

Buck Mason didn't want a deal when they turned Robert's offer down. I am guessing they were only going to take a deal from Damon if he had offered more favorable terms. The clothing looked fairly ordinary, I didn't think much of their brand.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

I heard Pat Boone on some radio show several months ago, and he said that the product he was connected with got the biggest deal ever. I had almost forgotten about it, but its next week...

That price for jeans was hilarious. I pay $15-$20 for jeans.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

I've only watched a few times. I hate that the sharks get offended if someone wants to hear everyone's offers before making a decision. I'm sure there are business situations where that happens but in general I'd expect successful business people to hear more than one offer before rushing into a decision, especially a decision to sell partial ownership of your company

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

They didn't want a deal at all. They were there for free marketing.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

That was my impression.


Same here.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

The finale had some interesting ideas(also good seeing Nick back):

Shark Wheel - very interesting, but man that's a tough sell without trying it in a store, whether it's a skateboard or a stroller.

Sway - very, very cool. I'm glad he managed to eke out a deal at the last second. What's funny/sad is that no one tried the thing. This product would have greatly benefitted from Robert being there. He would have been zipping all around the studio and would have made a deal in a heartbeat. Lastly did he say $7,995? :eek: Holy shit.

Spikeball - Looks pretty fun but $60+shipping for a ball and a net? Bwahahaha. Looks like a $20 product, and that's on the high side. GTFO.

Gato Cafe - Wha? Maybe it's because I'm not a pet person but who the fuck would pay to visit this place? I understand the Japanese being into something weird like this, but America? As a non pet person, I'm never going there, and pet people? Uh, they already have pets at home. Who is this for?

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

Because it's all reality TV bullshit. This show is no different, it's all done for drama.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

I know I'd drive the $10k air-powered car.

The cat cafe may be trend to jump and profit a little. No way that stays around past 5-10 years.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

I just thought of death the entire time of the Sway. Could be because I work in the auto insurance business and look at motorcycles the same way.

The Gato Cafe was by far one of the dumbest ideas to ever grace the Shark Tank stage. I was stunned when GoPro guy (Did I tell you he started GoPro? GoPro was his idea. Did I mention he started GoPro?) showed so much interest in it...but of course passed on it.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

The cat/pet cafe is a business you might be able get to work in some of the richer suburbs of America, but it's not a Shark Tank business at all.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

Cat cafes are a trend. Here's an article on one opening in DC that mentions that there are cat cafes open or in the works in Oakland, New York, Denver, and SF.

That said, I don't think it's a Shark Tank business at all.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

I just wanted to hear her say, "Who wants to invest in my cat house?"

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

I really wish they would cool it on all the varieties of pet food. Are there really this many people interested in baking food for their dogs?

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

I don't bake for myself, why would I bake for my [imaginary] dog? I'll bake him invisible treats. He'll like those.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

I am OK with all of the guest sharks that they have been bringing on, other than Bethenny Frankel. I hate her. She is such a self-absorbed bitch. I am now at a place where I cannot watch any episode she is on.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

I felt bad for that dog with the vegan owner an episode or 2 back.

Love how they basically laughed those 2 idiot women with the dress-exchange 'company' off the set for their $8M valuation. rotfl

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

Is Frankel that Real Housewives person? Whoever that is, is intolerable. I also can't stand the Spanks woman and that Kutscher nobody. They should only have people on the panel who have credibility as businesspeople.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

Kutcher co-founded a venture capital firm and Frankel sold her old company for $100 million, so I think they would both qualify

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

When Lori told the SilkRoll ladies "you have a big ask," I thought she said something else. :lol:

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

Ridiculous valuation on that dress exchange business by those ladies. I've watched since the beginning. Shark Tank just isn't doing it for me anymore. There are too many gimmicky pitches and every business going in now knows the sharks too well.

Reality shows fall apart as the audience itself starts becoming contestants, which is definitely what is happening here.

Re: Shark Tank (ABC) -- Series Thread Part II
 

Same here. I end up fast forwarding through about half of each episode now. As soon as the women said their ask, I knew it was going nowhere and FF'd through the rest of their screen time. The products themselves are no longer very interesting; just variants of things we've already seen.
