Chapman, Sly and duPont were equal owners. The firm's headquarters are in Clearwater, Florida.^[2] Their former Tampa location was also home to a luxury car showroom.^[3] As of 2003, their average reader had a net worth of US$2.2 million.^[4] The flagship publication is duPont Registry: A Buyers Gallery of Fine Automobiles, which launched in 1985. Other titles include duPont Registry: A Buyers Gallery of Fine Homes, duPont Registry: A Buyers Gallery of Fine Boats, and duPont Registry Tampa Bay. Their web presence has been described as a "rich man's Craigslist".^[5]
