Yes, it is as simple as getting a warehouse, a server, a webmaster and a few good ideas. Thats all you need now to make a serious legitimate business and money. If others share the vision & concept which has now been proven to work, then where's the crime? I suppose the gold diggers in the wild west had a crazy vision too. Same as the criminals who built Las Vegas. Its called "VISION". jawd, Your profile says very little about here. What are your qualifications for knowing retail, Business in general and the cause of the demise of egghead? Do you know how retailing works. Are you aware of the distribution costs and problems if all merchandise was sold on the net? Are you aware of why people go shopping in stores? Do you know terms and the averages of sales per square foot, sales per employee, advertising as a percentage of sales, and much more? There has not been an "etailer" to turn a profit yet. Is it possible those people do not have an understanding of retailing? Glenn
