haven't really been following this in its descent from $38 share, but i've always thought this was one of the more solid operations

seems odd that it would be tanking right before xmas which is traditionally 40% of year's business - have to keep and eye on it - $0.50 might get real tempting

I hope they survive. They were, IMO, the best of the big e-tailers.

Their business model doesnt really work. You can't sell things below cost, and hope to make up for it through advertisements.

Their stupid canadian site sucks, they charge like 20 bucks for ground shipping cuz they ship from the states.
