Hi Bill

Yes a friend and I have bought several of their systems over the last 8 years or so, and generally they don't make a profit in the medium to longer term as they are. They are good for finding new angles and making you think but that's about it. We still use some of them, but only after "tweaking" them for more consistency and that involved a lot of work. All of the systems we got came "free" with the magazine subscription but the magazine is expensive in itself so they make their money. As they say themselves, the data is historical and they make no claims about future success. A good reference was/is is Punters Choice book, which is expensive but they track all the systems and summarise each one for profit/loss. I haven't seen one for a while and they may not still publish.

Regards Mark
