    The profit is in the ink rather than the printer. There are two issues with someone coming into the market with a cheap printer/ink. 1) It's hard for any business to keep selling a…

    I'm not sure you understand what's happening here or the basics of business and liquidation. "Normal companies can't go bankrupt in one day" - They didn't go bankrupt. They went in…

    They didn't acquire client assets for £1. That's not quite how it works.

    You can't have a profitable bank that's insolvent. That doesn't make sense. The company has gone insolvent because it's no longer profitable.

    The token £1 is just a payment requirement for ownership. The bidding process for insolvent companies is essentially who will take on the most "problems" for the best outcomes for …

    It's free in most EU countries. I've never paid for a bank transfer. The third party doing the transaction gives me some protection that I wouldn't otherwise have. Can't argue agai…

    What you said doesn't make sense. The seller requested the buyer to pull the money out of the bank into cash and then immediately deposited that cash into their bank account. What …

    They don't trust a smartphone app provided by their banking provider but they trust a random bloke they've never met with 10k in their back pocket. Right. Makes sense.
