My thought remains: PPOD/WBVN etc. remain to be not a "real" internet venture, as just the order entry, marketing/advertisements, administration is done over the net, while the backoffice operations are comparable to any brick&mortar.

Even if AMZN is an outstanding example(?) that web retailer can do well (though troubled ONSL/EGGS do not), it's the merchandise which is more expensive to handle compared to books or other not vanishing goods.

Hence, the delivery network behind will have to be much narrower compared to other cases.

The current market valuation based on the 321M shares out, round $8B already priced in a very successful outcome.
