Cavalry:
You really have to stop taking companies' optimistic statements about themselves as gospel. One would think that your experiences concerning the relationship between Dr. Pettit and AZNT would have brought that message home (see #reply-5864475 - I am, of course, assuming here that the company, rather than you, was the source of the misinformation in that instance.)
In the case of shopping.com, the article in question was published on Nov. 10, 1998 at which time the IBUY CEO said that the announcement of the Fortune 200 company funding was "only a week away". If there was such an announcement by Nov. 17, 1998 (last Tuesday), I must have missed it.
BTW, you did read the rest of the article*, didn't you? JMO, of course, but the plethora of consumer complaints about IBUY isn't the sort of thing which inspires either future customers or potential Fortune 200 company investors.
BTW, if you want to get a first hand look at some of these IBUY complaints, go to dejanews.com and do a search on "shopping.com". I did so a few minutes ago and got 22,000 (!) hits.
