All - ive been here since day one , invested 10s of £ks which is significantly down , spent almost £3k on products since launch to support the brand, was once one of the most loyal supporters on forums against a lot of negativity, still really want the brand to be successful.

So I please ask call me out on my recent negativity and show me I’m wrong to be concerned , if I am biased or wrong then I will gladly admit my mistake.

I want this is to be successful but I’m not blind to what I can see happening over the last 12 months.

I’m ready to brought back to positivity if someone can just show me the way please

Plus I asked a question on their webchat on Friday morning before I spend another £150 on product and it’s now Sunday and no reply

Again does this fill you with confidence that all is well ??? Even the most positive which I used to be must be having serious concerns

Tell me I am wrong and all is rosy

Freese - I agree and I’ve said it’s all my opinion but let’s look at it factually again , most of us LTHS are 90% down , we have no active marketing anymore now , let me paste my original post below. How can you blame shareholders for not thinking the worse when Darcy and his team refuse to update or engage in a timely manner , we are not even marketing and somebody is selling their holding at an alarming rate , does that not worry you ??? It certainly does me

1. Poor sales which cannot sustain the business

2. Cost cutting which has resulted in delayed recovery range launch, which had been promised for over 18 months

3. Part Time CEO

4. 15% dilution for acquisition of Kingtide which is still a pipe dream , acquired in May , now September and nobody any clearer on strategy

5. All marketing put on hold , no social media presence anymore or marketing emails in over 2 weeks

6. Patents looking like not being granted for Skincare range , almost 18 months since patent submission and company refuses to update either way.

7. SP almost at historic low

8. No news on any innovation happening with the brand

9. Past history of poor decision making, almost £13m spent in 3 years to reach this point with the facts above

10. Key seed investors involved in WealthGreen and Ora Carbon , with our acquisition of Kingtide Carbon it looks from the outside as the boys club lining each others pocket.

11. Significant shareholders selling out at a time when we are being promised a bright future with Kingtide launch ? They are all connected so obviously not as bright as Darcy and his limited rhetoric is promising.

12. Matthew Lodge able to start selling his 95m shares from November 5th, that will play havoc with SP

13. BOD that refuse to update apart from flimsy scripted videos on Twitter

All the list could go on so don’t let the likes of Freese ( who it seems is connected to CBX) tell you all is okay and the future is bright.

The majority of us are 80-90% down on our significant investments, do CBX care ? The above suggests not at all.

To me it all suggests

1. Sale of Skincare brand , hence no marketing or sales

2. RTO again with no knows this time

3. Raise and more dilution for existing investors

4. Administration, I really hope not

Just to prove a point I asked a question yesterday on their webchat about a discount code I have , wanted to make sure it was still active before I placed an order.

It’s now 24 hours later and still no reply !!! That’s how we know they have given up , not going to place my order now as probably won’t get delivered.

Does it not scare investors that’s someone is selling 2m shares for a massive loss , it certainly does me , this is all corrupt and stinks of insider trading , the BOD really need to update shareholders , you would not sell 2m when the rhetoric from Darcy is that all is looking good for delivering shareholder value in the long term , they are screwing all shareholders over ( apart from their friends )

We have a really good idea that the skincare range is being wound down and sold off but if you follow Ora Carbon and Wealthgreen they are all starting to push for launch very soon.

All 3 companies are interconnected so maybe we have a silver lining. Mike Edwards who is personally advertising Ora Carbon on IG was also an original investor in CBX and ARB, Derrick Dao who founded Wealthgreen is President of KingTide.

This is all too interconnected to be a coincidence so as sad as it is for us to lose the Skincare we may get our chance on a bounce to get some money back when the Carbon Capture story starts.

Still a Novice - I’ll post my views below , the facts are correct but the rest is just speculative due to the spineless nature of our current BOD

To be honest I’m only speculating which happens when a company goes radio silent. Let’s look at the facts we have at present

1. Poor sales which cannot sustain the business

2. Cost cutting which has resulted in delayed recovery range launch, which had been promised for over 18 months

3. Part Time CEO

Don’t forget we have the LSE listing which in itself is worth a fair bit of money , my guess is on an RTO once the skincare has gone , I presume it will have to go through the FCA with a prospectus etc.

If only we could have foreseen this 2 years ago , shame on the current BOD for hiding and failing to update , it’s a dereliction of duty.

It is very interesting who they will sell too and makes complete sense that they have wound everything down , no social media , no DTC emails , this means no loose ends when it transfer over to the new owners and CBX becomes a Carbon Capture/ Trading platform with Ora Carbon , should be very interesting.

Who do we think will but the skincare brand ? I hope it’s a decent company as the product is amazing and deserves to be continued , the team who innovated the range should be allowed to carry on with their great work.

All we might as well just give up , they have even stopped all marketing now , this so surly the end and they are selling or going into administration.

The only way to stop this rhetoric is for Darcy or somebody else from the BOD to step up and update either way , it’s a disgrace and shows the utter contempt for shareholders.

If this ever goes to a raise then stay away , they have showed their true colours and how they value investors , this should be a major red flag for any investors who may think about investing

Bobat - do you believe RNS ? Have a read over the RNS history from CBX and you will soon see it’s full of false promises and projections , this is not me being negative but factual , read them all in detail and let me know your thoughts

No need to buy in when you have been gifted 95m shares , the other BOD are either NED or part time , nobody really leading the company , directionless now

They have taken all our money and don’t have the decency as leaders to update with integrity , shameful behaviour

Very kind - I would make a terrible CEO lol , not sure who is behind the IG page but to be clear it’s not me this time.

I really hope we are wrong about CBX and it’s current trajectory, the only person who can put this right now is Darcy , it wouldn’t take a lot but maybe the situation is irreversible now and time has almost run out for us.

Whilst we are lambasting the BOD let’s not forget the great work Alexis , Alexia and the RD team did in bringing this to market , besides the investment failure I still love the skin care products , it just goes to show how difficult it is to bring a new product to market , but we’ll done to the team for tying

They are staying very quiet , probably finalising the sale and writing the doom of an RNS

All just an observation but it looks like we have given up , only 1 IG post in 10 days and no email marketing received in 2 weeks.

What is happening ?

All i promise this isn’t me this time but somebody has set up a shareholder page on IG , link below , not sure the aim or intent but good luck to them as I know how hard it is to get traction on this kind of engagement https://instagram.com/cellulargoodsgroup?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Bobat - what they need to do is engage and be honest , we are all ready to support if needed to help with sentiment , it’s their choice to treat us with contempt
