Dan Fallak, from Almonte, Ontario, pitched Amazeballs, stainless steel beverage chillers with a gel core designed to cool drinks without diluting them, asking $150,000 for 20 percent of the company. The balls take up to four hours to freeze, come in sets of two retailing from $25, and are sold at Chapters, Urban Outfitters, Winners, Marshalls, HomeSense, and The Chive's web store. In the past twelve months Dan Fallak had sold $180,000 worth of product and valued the company at $750,000, based on roughly three and a half times gross sales plus intellectual property value from trademarks in Canada and the United States.
Manjit Minhas, Jim Treliving, Michele Romanow, and Michael Wekerle all went out, citing concerns including the product's chilling speed compared to ice, lack of barrier to entry, and an overly high valuation. Joe Mimran offered $150,000 for 50 percent equity, which Dan Fallak accepted.
