Hello,
Apologies for those of you not interested in this but I thought I would
circulate the replies (in anonymous fashion) that I have recieved to my
query yesterday.
"Reska's receivers rang us just before Christmas!"
"We had a letter from Reska receivers - Lennard Curtis at the beginning
of
last week, as we are still waiting for our furniture to be delivered. I
have also had a conversation since with the receivers."
"I don't know where other people heard the news, but we discovered it in
early January from their office, after having tried, unsuccessfully, to
geta response from them before Christmas - frustrating as we are still
waiting delivery of some shelving and furniture items for our newly
refurbished Learning Centre!"
"XXX College are/were in the process of refurbishing our Learning Centre
with new issue desk, shelves etc. A number of items were outstanding so
I rang Reska before Xmas. All I got was the answer phone.
After Xmas/new year I rang again and spoke to a receptionist who said
that
the receivers were on the premises. I spoke to one of the said receivers
who informed me that Rescan had gone into liquidation but that the
receivers were hoping to sell the company as a going concern.
Needless to say the outstanding items are still outstanding."
"We have been told that LFC (Library Furnishing Consultants Ltd, 54
Denington Road Wellingborough Northants NN8 2QH Tel. 01933 445300) are
continuing to supply Reska and Balmforth. They have offered to us to
honour outstanding Reska quotes." (Previously sent to list)
Hope this helps - thanks to those colleagues who reponded.
Tim
