jeff berger says on ttol that he heard
Have heard from two European sources (who I think don't know each other) that a Russian hotel owner has bought Captain Oliver's Hotel and Marina, which had been offered by Remax for $25-million. Anybody know anything more? Have not had time to contact Remax yet, been traveling..."
This is absolutely false information, once again Mr Berger does not verify his sources and he should be VERY careful about spreading rumors on public forum or public websites!!!! There are some laws who can take care of that! once again "his" level of practices journalism is not higher than concierge gossips! The best way to know would be to ask directly to Captain Oliver's or one of his representative before publishing any stupid false information...:
Not sold!...
EVen JB gets it right now and then but if I am to believe Phillippe or JB on this one I'm going with Philipe beyond a doubt.
If you read JBs original comment on another BB he was very specific in what he said and he didn't ask for a confirmation or say he had one because he was traveling and didn't have time but he did ask if anyone else had heard it and then went on to say he didn't have time to check his sources. In case he hasnt heard thats the way rumors start.
Maybe he's right and maybe hes wrong but he shouldnt of left the impression this was true if he didn't have absolute conformation.
