I wouldn't put all my hopes on the commercials coming out to boost the stock for long - seems like it goes up prior to the event and then goes down the day after (this happened with GZFX and ZKID), but if you are holding long, this could just be an opportunity to buy more. Today's the first day GZFX has seen green since the commercials aired.

Exactly, yea that is what I meant, I'm holding a bit longer rather then just day trade it. Great time to average down if you are in higher, or just pick it up at low levels.

Such good news, remember people take your profits if you are not in for short term. Most of the time when we have great news it gaps way up then has to go fill the gap. Gotta fill the gap to continue to move up. Just remember! Good Luck to everyone today, we have been waiting for this after bleeding the past couple dayts

Only time will tell. Wait for the financials, they may be good they may be bad. The most definately should be great with the progress however, that will tell and then its off to the moon if they continue to progress how they are.

I think they deff will be close to a dollar pretty soon. Although today's pr might not do much, as soon as the commercials come out, this will fly.

I feel it will be tough but with the right advertising campaign they could definitely pull it off. They could even surpass $1 if the demand is strong enough. Ofcourse, it will only be able to reach those highs if they show outstanding financials. To reach the dollars they need to show the green, they can't reach the dollar on speculation alone unless it's backed by a hord of investors providing the necessary cash. Time will tell I guess. For the mean time, I'm holding long on this one. GLTA

Just a thought! Perhaps the reason the pps has opened lower is because the total amount of revenue they have produced (just on raffles being closed) is a whopping $1,730.43 (this only includes the 50 that are shown on the website). This is how I came up with it: Total Value of Prizes closed: $10,179.00 Prizewise take (17%): $1,730.43
Keeping in mind that a total of 116 sweepstakes have been closed you can use a multiplier of 1.32 which gives you revenues of $4,014.60 (based on the assumption that the dollar amounts of the prizes are similar) This excludes revenue that they are generating from their advertising space on their website. So because of this I feel they definitely need to air commercials and I hope they generate a lot of growth. I believe there are a lot of gamblers out there who don't know about prizewise but hopefully they will soon find out.

You can also look at it from this perspective: They say the total value of listed items is in excess of $20 mil. 17% of that is 3.4 mil in profits.

I just received a reply from my email to customer service at prizewise regarding the tv commercials....
"Thank you for the email. Like you, we are also exited to run the ads. Unfortunately, there have been a few delays with running the ads. They will hopefully start to air in the next couple of weeks. Check back with us in the next week and we should have more information for you.
Thank you.
nw"
So, I will email them next week and see if they have anything more definite.

Oh well Some Where Over the Rainbow dreams will come true with this stock in the long run. GO PRIZEWISE!!

It'd be great to pick more up at these levels however, I would also like to see green.

Not sure if this was posted yet, but the website was updated with a slick tutorial that walks you through the raffle process. Answers all those questions about coupons, etc, and looks very well produced and user friendly. Wish some of my other stocks used their web designer. (Not metioning any names.)

The tutorial is actually very helpful in my opinion. I think once the commercials start airing the curious folks will come to the site. They will see the tutorial and see how easy the whole process is. Word of mouth is strong in this type of environment.
As for the web design Bialystock ... yeah I have a few companies in my portfolio that could use some help.
Good luck to all

Press Release Source: 21st Century Technologies
United States Navy's Emergency Ship Salvage Material System Purchases 21st Century Technologies' Trident Magnets for Underwater Operations Thursday June 24, 8:30 am ET
LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 24, 2004--The United States Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command has placed an order through their contractor, GPC, for 28 new Trident Magnet Assemblies for its Emergency Ship Salvage Material System (ESSM). ESSM is comprised of a combination of bases and complexes that provide ship salvage, pollution control and ocean engineering equipment on an emergency basis. The Trident Magnet Assemblies are manufactured by Trident Technologies, Inc., a portfolio investment company of 21st Century Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:TFCT.OB - News) Kevin Romney, President and CEO of 21st Century said, "To receive such an order shortly after our return from Washington, D.C. is significant. We look forward to expanding our relationship with ESSM through GPC, as we continue to explore other opportunities funded within the Department of Defense."
This latest purchase builds on a 4-year relationship between Trident and ESSM. The rare-earth permanent magnets purchased by GPC for the U.S. Navy are similar to the magnets used by ProMag and SeaPatch, Trident's efficient rupture and leak sealing systems employed by private industry. The ESSM Trident magnets are used as anchoring platforms for underwater salvage operations.
The Trident Magnet Systems are used to affix hot tap flanges for environmentally safe removal of oil from sunken ships. They are also used to mount boring machine systems used to test hull integrity. Additional uses are under study to provide magnetic solutions for the diverse challenges of underwater emergency salvage operations.
