Latest Farrell statement....comments anyone? - ToplaceUSA - 10-26-2008 Here's the latest from Richard Farrell---anyone care to comment? Farrell Voted Best in the World 9 Years One of the drawbacks of being voted the “Best Hair Replacement System in the World for 9 Straight years” is going to be the jalousies of competitors, “it’s sad” says Richard. Some people are so worried about profit and trying to make a name for their company that they will say anything, it hurts because we have always been on the forefront of compassion and decency in this industry. Our goal at Farrell is to help, that is why we don’t talk about any of our competitors, “were just not worried about them” says Richard, they come and go through the years but Farrell Hair Replacement is to stay!

I have been wearing for 17 years and Toplace is the best deal around for customer service...advice and understanding a wearers need! Amen for Toplace!!! If it were'nt for BA...JOHN....and Debbie... all of us would be paying way to much...and in a world of hurt. Let's keep Toplace on top of the market so everyone benefits. Cheers Re: Latest Farrell statement....comments anyone? - TallandBald - 10-27-2008 It's really too bad for the inexperienced out there that automatically equate a great service and quality products with high prices. I'm sure that there are some that assume that because Farrell is phenomenally expensive, it must be the better choice. Of course since it is his livelyhood, RF will say anything to detract those newbies from doing more research to come up with the best solution for themselves. Folks like BA, John, and Debbie are at the polar opposite of that sort of approach. jl Re: Latest Farrell statement....comments anyone? - Hairwearer - 10-27-2008 It's obvious Farrell is a greedy git as BA would say, but if he really thinks what he said in those quotes, the guy has totally lost contact with reality. Re: Latest Farrell statement....comments anyone? - thecount - 10-28-2008 According to some industry insiders I've spoken with in New York City... Even Farrell is taking a huge hit with the economy the way it is, and is quietly being forced to close up a few of their hair centers ... Farrell does a great service INDIRECTLY to the hair replacement community as does the other hair replacement centers They (Farrell, HCM, etc) are the ones who spend the money on advertising and keep what is possible for balding men ....in the public eyes .... That brings more people into this market who are searching for hair replacement options... eventually .. Some of people might find toplace .. and their added monies help Toplace and the factories stay afloat and provide pieces for the rest of us at the obscenely low prices we are paying here ... for Quality pieces ... As a hypnotist, there was a nationwide chain of hypnosis centers called Positive Changes. They took out huge, full page space ads in the papers ... They spent an obscene amount ..and also charged an obscene amount to new clients in the form of contracts .. just like the hair centers do ... My fellow hypnotists all were all upset by the major chain coming to their towns ... ("Oh .. they're going to take away our business!") but those of us who are RUN a business and have to shell out fixed costs every month... understand .. how all the publicity and advertising this chain spent .. increased the public's awareness about hypnosis/hypnotherapy and had MORE PEOPLE understanding what a powerful modality of changework this is ... and the side effect of their intense spending and public relations ... it had a ripple effect .. which generated business 'business-wide' for all of us ... Darn ... I wish this chain was still around .... Think about this .. when you look at HCM, Farrell or JA Alternatives ... They are generating business for everyone .... and the volume of business allow us to benefit from BA's ability to negotiate, slightly above wholesale prices for quality hair pieces ... Just my opinion ..... Remember the first Sony VCR's cost 2,500 bucks Now ... you can find them for $25.
