That's a massive blow to the individuals losing their jobs, and to the local economy

But anyone who's been through the doors at Carcraft will know their merchanise was overpriced compared to the market average resale values, and their business model relied on pushing people into financial deals a lot of them could barely afford, under the type of duress that made it difficult to leave via the nearest exit without being accosted by a suit

Maybe not quite NFR - years ago, weren't Carcraft sponsors of Dale shirts?

From the above message, maybe not an ideal sponsor (though there are many worse - Wonga etc) but grim news for those thrown out of work.

Terrible news for all the staff being out of work, but as far as company's go, they were as dodgy as they come so no huge surprise.

Days like this one weren't supposed to happen to Rochdale.

In effect, Carcraft sold loans and that was where the main profits were. Terrible news for the employees.
