Now if this is not an Oxymoron I don't know what is. Wonder when TheStreet.com know it?

What Did They Know and When Did They Know It?

Still reeling. Still nauseated by the gaffing that was
priceline.com (PCLN:Nasdaq - news).

Still wanting to know when they knew that the customers hated shopping online for groceries. When did they know it? When did they realize that there was something so dreadfully wrong that they had to pull the plug?

And why did they make such a big deal about the yard sales and the gasoline buying?

They went on television. Heck they did a television blitz. They made us all feel as if everyone were doing this!!

Was it a charade? What was going on? Why did not one of these hallowed souls tell us that the grocery thing wasn't working? Why didn't they tell us before? Why did they do all of these transactions? What did they promise to all of the buyers?

What the heck happened here?

I can't emphasize to you just how "had" everybody who has brushed up against these guys now feels.

Just had.

Still steamed. Still reeling.

Totally unacceptable.
