In this article, I describe the process that is involved in a collective sale. It usually takes up to two years to complete a successful sale.
Many collective sales have been attempted, but only a small proportion (perhaps less than 10% of attempts) became successful.
Take a good look at history, that this country has a good reputation for efficiency.

Poor workmanship and poor quality control.
