       Dear Mr. Beplate:

       information or advise us as soon as possible when you will respond. If
you do not believe our
       comments apply to your facts and circumstances, please tell us why in

       Statement of Operations, page F-4

   1.                                                   We see that you
recorded the 2017 loss on disputed inventory as a non-operating expense.
                                                        Please tell us your
basis for concluding transactions related to your core business model of
                                                        selling inventory
should be reported outside of operations.
       Note 2. Restatement of Financial Statements , page F-7

   2.                                                   You state that no
revenue should have been recognized in 2017 as the transactions did not
                                                        meet all of the revenue
recognition criteria under ASC 606. As you had not adopted ASC
                                                        606 as of December 31,
2017, please confirm that the transaction also did not meet the
                                                        revenue recognition
criteria of ASC 605.

accruals. Please
         separately describe the nature of each set of related adjustments
recorded as part of the

         statements. Refer to ASC 250-10-50-7, SAB Topics 1M and 1N.
4.       In this regard, we note that certain adjustments were made    based on
factors known at the
         time of this filing versus what was known as of the original filing
date.    For each
         adjustment related to this statement, please tell us whether these
factors provided
         additional evidence about factors that existed as of the balance sheet
date or if the
         conditions did not exist as of the balance sheet date. Refer to ASC

that inventories
         should be valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value.

         loss contingency when it is probable that a liability has been
incurred and the amount of
         loss can be reasonably estimated; and you disclose the nature of the
contingency and an
         estimate of the possible loss or range of loss or a statement that
such an estimate cannot be
         made if there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss or
additional loss may have
         been incurred and an accrual is not made or an exposure to loss exists
in excess of the
         amount accrued. Refer to ASC 450-20-50-3 through ASC 450-20-50-6.

status of those plans to
         enhance your internal control environment to remediate the identified
material
         weaknesses.

responsible for the
