Information on pricewatch.com and owner Michael Garces
investig...@aol.com
anything beyond the vague contact information on the site.
It seems that owner and president of the Price Watch Corporation, Mr.
Michael Garces (also known as Manuel Garces) (PriceWatch Corp
Corporation) doesn't want to talk to anyone on the telephone or really
deal with anyone for that fact
So we did our own searching and this is what we found
1st of all, lets take a look at the Corporate Record for Price Watch
Corporation with the State of Texas at the following link
This shows the following record
Company Information: PRICE WATCH CORPORATION
1250 NE LOOP 410 STE 405
SAN ANTONIO, TX 78209-1524
Status: IN GOOD STANDING NOT FOR DISSOLUTION OR WITHDRAWAL through
November 15, 2005

(The old Maxus Energy Tower in Dallas - now KPMG Centre)

PRESIDENT MICHAEL A GARCES
1250 N E LOOP 410 SUITE 405
SAN ANTONIO , TX 78209
After some sweet talking to an employee with the state of Texas, we
also found out that Mr. Garces has filed a extension to update their
corporate public info and that the company most likely started out in
1995 at the following address
348 TUTTLE DR
SAN ANTONIO, TX 78209-6147
A small house on .15 acres
http://www.bcad.org/clientdb/propertydetails.asp?PROP=345395
Property was valued at around $80,000 in 1999
It also appears that he owned another property down the street at 332
Tuttle Drive valued at $77,800
These properties it seems he owned under his most likely given name of
Manuel Garces.
Also it shows that Mr. Michael A. Garces (and his wife?) Carla owned
properties at
(All in San Antonio, Texas - values in 1999)
43 Bristol Green - valued at $419,700
53 Bristol Green - valued at $304,400
2 Worthsham Dr - vlaued at $40,000
2 Walford Ct - valued at $50,000
6 Admirals Way - valued at $700,000 **This is his primary residence**
23 Worthsham Drive - valued at $317,600
8 Davenport LN - valued at $1,507,800
If you look at the deed history at the Bristol Green properties - you
will see it listed the 348 Tuttle as the registered address - hence the
established link that Manuel Garcas and Michael A (aka Michael) Garcas
are the same person
In 2000 he got rid of both Tuttle Properties and one of the Bristol
Green properties. No more going by Manuel it seems either
He added a new property at 3 Kings Ml valued at $356,400 in 2000
It seems in 2001, most of these properties with the exception of the 6
Admirals Way property (most likely his primary residence) were deeded
over (normal deeds) to an entity called " SAKI 2001 TRUST "
A couple of the properties were sold outright
A couple years later, he deeded over the 6 Admiral's Way property to
SAKI 2001 TRUST using a SPECIAL WARRANTY DEED. Also a permit was
applied for this year by Mr. Garces for 4,500,000.00 of new
construction on the property as well.
This year Mr. Garcas via the SAKI 2001 Trust owns the following
properties
3 Kings Ml - valued at $349,400
23 Worthsham Dr - valued at $301,170
8 Davenport Ln - valued at $1,444,200
6 Admirals Way - valued at $4,857,720
It appears that he has financed all of these properties through
Chase Bank Of Texas
and
Chase Manhattan Bank
Here is a listing that confirms the info from State of Texas about the
original Tuttle Address (348 Tuttle)

Whatever is going on - Mr. Garces is doing quite well with Pricewatch
and whatever else he may have cooking up... Very interesting with all
the land changes, etc I think.

That he owns real estate, and sometimes uses an anglicized version
of his name. Wow.

...and your point is? Sounds like a typical, successful, entrepreneur.
Jealous?
Toolman Tim
That would have been my guess too...
My boss doesn't take calls from just anyone either.
FML
you can just call up on the phone and expect to actually talk to them.
Duh! I'm sticking with my jealousy diagnosis.

Fine. He's not under any obligation to chat with people who have no
business with him personally. He has employees for that, right?
> So we did our own searching and this is what we found
<snip lots of info about real properties purchases>
So what? He owns property?
Are you implying anything about this, or are you simply suggesting that
owning more than one property is sinister in itself?

Fine. Since you haven't suggested anything sinister or inappropriate, I
have to assume he's just a businessman doing well enough to make normal
purchases and investments.
Do you have a point?
