Simplicity Snapper Aquisition

The local lawn mower man told me that Snapper was having big financial problems due to a Wal-Mart deal and that they were looking for someone to buy them out. Today the lawn mower man told me that Simplicity had purchased the Snapper company. Has Anyone else heard of this or know if it is true?

yes it's true. happened about a month ago. Simplicity wanted the dealer network in the south and south west. Don't think it had anything to do with Wal-Mart. Simplicity is into stand alone dealers not big box stores. They feel the big box stores just cheapen the product. The big box stores just want cheap product to sell cheap not customer support. This & $1.00 might get you a small Coffee Maynard aka/UCD
