    Queensland Book Exchange!? :p

    But seriously, I'm always sceptical about these corporate loss figures. They often sound like someone's been overly optimistic about the appraisal.

    Like the guy that tries to sell his car for $20,000 but only gets $15,000 and says he's "lost" $5000. Nah mate... it was never 'worth' that in the first place. :cool:
