The rights to the Smiley© trademark in 100 countries are owned by the Smiley Company (not Wally-World, who was sued by the herein named trademark holder).
Could you imagine the price tag on this cute yellow ball, with the happy, grinning face, after WGT entered into negotiations with the Smiley Brand?
- $7 + probably ( I shudder at the thought )
- Then think about how many you would surely lose to WEEDS, WATER and OB...not to mention that thing lurking in the shadows, waiting to pounce on you like a Lion on a Gazelle.
- What about the attributes attached to said item (in decimals).
With this having been said, WHO wants a Smiley© face on their balls?
LOL
I already have had to sell 5 cars (under book) just to pay for the balls I am almost out of.
CHEERS !
