RE:     VALUE HOLDINGS, INC.
        COMMISSION NO. 0-15076

Gentlemen:

This letter is furnished in response to the comments contained in Item 4 of
Form 8-K of Value Holdings, Inc. (the "Registrant") dated July 9, 1996.

We are not in agreement with certain of the Registrant's disclosures regarding
our resignation and certain reportable events.  Specifically in response to
Item 4, the Registrant states, in relevant part, as follows:

        The company does not agree with the assertions of the former auditors 
        and it is at a loss to understand the reasons for the resignation. 
        To the best of management's knowledge, all the information requested
        by the auditors for the completion of the audit had been provided and
        there had been no indication that there were any unresolved
        discrepancies. 

At the time of the firm's resignation, there were numerous requests for
information, documentation and substantiation of transactions necessary to
complete the audit, but these had not been satisfactorily provided.  There were
a number of significant unresolved issues and discrepancies.  Multiple
deficiencies were pointed out to the Registrant in a series of commuications
during the month of June and the first few days of July.

The internal control environment at the company deteriorated materially from
the prior fiscal year to the current fiscal year.  The inadequacy of internal
controls and the inadequate control environment was compounded by a lack of
awareness or lack of understanding by the chief financial officer of the
details of significant transactions engaged in by the Registrant.

Because of the lack of internal controls, the lack of source documentation, the
existence of at least one material unrecorded transaction, and the inability of
the Registrant's president and chief financial officer to explain,
substantiate, or justify the business purpose for significant corporate
transactions, we believed that we could no longer place reliance on
management's representations.

Specific matters of disagreement (both resolved and unresolved) included:  (1)
significant related party transactions at year end; (2) a client adjustment at
year end to record a previously unrecorded transaction with an affiliate after
we had proposed an adverse audit adjustment pertaining to this transaction; (3)
the valuation of common stock to be issued to the president of the Registrant
in connection with the Registrant's investment in a Canadian subsidiary and the
manner of accounting for this minority interest; (4) a proposed adjustment to
write off to expense certain management fees that arose from the issuance of
common stock, which the Registrant had capitalized; and (5) a proposed
adjustment to record accrued penalties and interest on unpaid payroll and sales
taxes.

In addition, in our review of the Registrant's responses to Item 4, we noted
that the Registrant did not report any matters with respect to the issuance of
modified audit reports on the two prior years' financial statements of Value
Holdings, Inc and subsidiaries.  With regard to the reports on the financial
statements of the Registrant for the years ended February 28, 1995 and 1994,
the report dated June 6, 1995 contains an explanatory paragraph referring to
significant uncertainties as to the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern and certain pending litigation as to which an estimate of the
likelihood of an unfavorable result could not be made.

Very truly yours,
