MyPillow is auctioning off equipment after retailers pull its products

MyPillow is auctioning off hundreds of pieces of equipment and subleasing manufacturing space after several shopping networks and major retailers took the company's products off shelves.

The Chaska-based manufacturer recently listed more than 850 "surplus equipment" items on the online auction site K-Bid. Sewing machines, industrial fabric spreaders, forklifts and even desks and chairs are up for auction.

Founder and CEO Mike Lindell said MyPillow has experienced a loss in revenue and the items are no longer needed as the company consolidates its operations.

We aren’t leftists, who lie and cover up and say “all is well” in the lipstick on a pig process.

The left did that for Clinton, Anthony Weiner, and countless others. They defended and propped up failing situations as a matter of policy.

There is no shame in identifying product deficiencies. If his pillows are meh, then they’re meh.

Sure, the cancelation of My Pillow was purely political, but supporters ran out and mass-purchased his products.

Mike should have realized the patriotic sales pop would be short-lived, and consolidate operations two years ago.

I also suspect many patriots wanted to believe, but his big reveal was a big bust. That may have also hurt patriot sales.

FWIW, his pillows sell briskly at one local store.

Exactly which is why Lindell absolutely needs everyone’s prayers because MyPillow might be history really soon if things don’t turn around.

Whoever scammed him reeled in a big fish that was desperately wanted to believe and was ripe to be scammed

You’re 100% correct, at the beginning when he started making his claims even though I knew it was impossible I gave him the benefit of the doubt up until the symposium when the BS was over the top, he lost me at that point

Did you put the pillow in the dryer first? The heat activates the stuffing to expand and lock with other pieces. Otherwise the pillows get lumpy.

I didn't realize that. I was not impressed with the MyPillow I bought and that may be the issue.

He obviously did not have the goods and was able to continue the symposium after he was supposedly attacked and he proved nothing

Ya gotta read the instructions. We have several My Pillow products. They all work as advertised. Money well spent.

“I like the pillow I bought & I like Mike’s sincerity - but he’s a goof ball.”

I agree. We have six of the pillows. I’d also call him a salesman-huckster’.

His six minutes of fame has come and gone.

agreed.... ordered a set and sent it back, I had no idea it was made of lumpy left over foam bits, that show through pillow cases as well. Horrid pillow! Have never quite understood how it became so popular.

Finally, he accused DeSantis of rigging his reelection in Florida because the margin of victory was to big to be reasonable.

Mike wasn't too happy when DeSantis promoted the lawyer and law firm who was representing Dominion and suing the pants off of Mike.

Because Lindell supported Trump and is a Christian. The left has been making conservatives suffer through this economic persecution for a long time.

Everybody is different. I’ve never bought a mypillow, so I don’t have an opinion there. However, maybe I should try one, because every other one I try seems to be too hard or too soft. I resort to inbed modification: fold in half, sleep on the edge (I hate to have pillow in half my face when sleeping on my side).

Big truck sleepers don’t have very comfortable beds. But after a 14 hour day of intense driving in heavy traffic/rough weather, that bunk is like sleeping on a cloud.

22 years ago I made a bean bag mattress. It is placed on a single bed frame with a 78” long plywood sheet over the box springs (I’m almost 6’2”). I can create any support I want for any sleeping position. Lay on a 45° angle on a regular bed (in between laying flat or laying on your side) and your body wants to roll one way or the other. On my bean bag mattress you stay put. And there’s no pressure points.

Made one for the truck sleeper and it was great. Hardly any truckstops have perfectly level lots. I can create a level bed with the bean bag mattress, since the fill is free to move. Fold it in half and it can become a recliner.

We love our pillows. No more waking up with a headache.

Not sure if were were aware but Antifa was unleashing DOS (Denial of Service) attacks nearly nonstop against the Cyber Convention as it was happening. At one point the camera was even shaking.

I purchased two pillows and really like them. I could tell the difference when I wasn’t waking up with headaches any longer. I like Mike but I think the fame and cameras got to him. He loves the limelight, much to his detriment. He needs to step back and pray Fox doesn’t cancel him as well since it’s probably the only network that airs his commercials.

So what, if he had the packet captures he claimed they files would be local to the location of the symposium and the DOS attack would be meaningless

Actually I wouldn’t miss the commercials that play every five minutes on Fox. I don’t get it that this creepy circus barker is camping out in some random couple’s bathroom, lurking behind the medicine cabinet. Good luck in the Dominion lawsuit, Mike. You’ll need it!

Agreed (post 10). Great products (slippers and pillows), but these are items you might buy once every ten years, or so.
