You get to design your own bars on a website then they ship them to you. He wants 150 000 dollars for 15 percent. The sharks this that they can just start there bussiness on there own. One shark is out right away and then another shark offers 150, 000 for 75 percent of the comapny. The other shark says he will give 150, 000 for 100 percent of the comapny. Shark then says he will give him 150, 000 for 30 percent of the comapny and he accepts. I think he made a good choice because he now has the experience and connections of that shark.

Bobble Place


Jeff came in with a deal asking for 75 thousand in return for 15 percent equity in his business. The sharks were not interested in this concept instead they were interested in his already existing company. Jeff was not willing to give any of his already existing company up. The sharks then offered a 100,000 for 18 percent of his company and forbid Jeff from moving into a mall. Then another shark offered him 125,000 for 20 percent of his company. Both sharks were then out. Jeff just wanted to get publicity i think, and he really didn't want any kinda of deal for his existing company.
