Bloomberg updates with price...

9/12 Onsale Shares Rise on Prospects for Internet Growth (Update1)
The company rented two marketing spots on AOL, valued at $400,000
to $600,000 based on AOL's rental fees.

To top it off the language "valued at..based upon AOL's rental fees"
i.e [published] means that ONSL got a discount and is paying less.
And, no indication of whether it's a single or multiyear deal.

No matter. ANY deal is worth $171 million of market cap to AOL.
(BTW the $1.5 rise-$171m is price sales multiple of 285 on $600,000).

And no matter that long ago AOL's price factored in expectations
of mega more as-yet unannounced ad revenue than a lousy few hundred thousand
