Skeeter Bug, have you ever checked out the current incarnation of 1800Batteries. I think it is called iGo or something like that. When Lou Gerstner made his famous Wal-Mart is going to kill everyone comment, I looked on IBM's site and 1800Batteries was one of the featured e-commerce success stories. I believe the company had less than $20 million in sales last year. Anyway, I got a catalog in the mail a few weeks ago and I had to laugh at the prices. Nearly everything I compared seemed considerably overpriced versus other online and bricks and mortar retailers. Apparently, this company is working on the principle the less the customer knows, the more they are likely to pay. Bob
