    Hey Buddy - Welcome to The Cable Vine! No need to concern yourself about piece rate locating, for now. USIC gobbled up another competitor and adopted many of it's faults; but at least one of it's faults, piece rate, has been thwarted so far.

    Are you talking about Piece Rate or the new, improved, re-done, must have, new Bone-us promise?

    The best thing I can say is go back and read all the postings about USIC on this site.

    While you are looking through the posts, keep in mind how long some people have been locating. These are the people who will give you the best information, and not hold back any punches. There have been quite a few different owners of USIC, and there may be more in the future. I can't really answer that question without asking what are you looking for in a company?

    Also, the information you are looking for may not be made available to the people in this forum right now. Changes are always taking place with this company, and good or bad, you are stuck with them with no voice to speak to the contrary.

    The canucks are the majority stake holder in USIC to the best of my knowledge.

    Lots of hands in the kitty these days.

    Maybe we should start an investment group. We could buy USIC, change the name, and then resell it for a profit. Sounds easy enough.
