Their not on sale until the 28th. You got 6 more days of waiting to spend your money on a machine that hasn't proven itself yet.

Hope this MineLab launch doesn't turn into another Facebook IPO.

Not to the Facebook founders.

Facebook share prices have slumped by more than 10 per cent in just two days of trading since the firm's IPO last Friday.

And the pain could continue as many analysts predict its value will continue to fall in the wake of the much-hyped IPO.

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, made $19 billion Friday when his company went public, but has since lost $2.055 billion in the three days since.

And co-founder Eduardo Saverin renounced his US citizenship to beat taxes. I hope he loses it all.

I never believed for a second that Facebook was worth 200 billion dollars.
Now me, I only invest in pull tabs, bottle caps, rusty old nails, and can slaw.

Yes but if he buys the stocks back when they hit rock bottom he will make even more money. $2B is like you and me losing 20 bucks
