Yep. A company like this going under affects the whole supply and distribution chain and could potentially hurt anyone who has an order with them as they simply become creditors, like anyone else, and customers as creditors come pretty low in the rankings as far as administrators are concerned. Horrifying to consider that each of those streetdecks costs about the same as my house (and I no longer live in a cheap part of the county!)

Considering the cost of a StreetDeck is around £250k, and GNE have 31 on order, that's just shy of £8 million that GNE have spent with them.

I assume that they haven't given them the full amount yet since they haven't been delivered yet, but I'd imagine the deposit would be a pretty penny too!

A StreetDeck costs over 5 times what we paid for my house, that's the reason I like living in the cheap part of the country
