Default Re: How do I buy party stock?

ZeeJustin,

I'm also seeking to figure out how to invest in Party. I trade w/ Ameritrade, so my results may be slightly different, but in a phone call today, I learned that Party is traded through the "pink sheets" on Ameritrade. The symbol is PYGMF (vs. PRTY.L on the London exchange, I believe). The upshot of trading on these pink sheets is apparently that you must trade using limit orders, and the share price is updated at the end of the trading day only. I have to admit, I have virtually no understanding of this pink sheets business, so my knowledge is limited only to what I learned through this phone call.

Actually, I came here to post about this and see if anyone can fill me in on the details of this pink sheet trading, and whether it's a good/bad idea to invest in Party through this avenue rather than through another firm that trades in London directly.
