Anyone hear of or have any information on Thermospas filing bankruptcy.

If you can't sell it on eBay, it may not even qualify as landfill.

Retired (mostly) from the industry after 33 years...but still putzing around with a consumer information website, and trying to sell obsolete owners manuals

The only thing that surprises me is that this did not occur sooner.  They ALWAYS had a dismal business model of SEVERELY overcharging for their products.  Why anyone paid them $14K for a $8K tub is beyond me.

In reading the list of (over 400) creditors, I was not really surprised to see that by far, most are advertisers. Including one spa forum website and Big Fish ("Spa Search") publications.

I guess most manufacturers would have a larger list of materials suppliers, and a smaller list of advertising outlets.

FWIW
