Frederick Langford,
I'm with you on this stock. I think it is a great company making money already. It's entry into the e commerce business should be noticed as that business grows. I don't think it will take away from the store business. I think it expands their market for goods that are well suited to the net. When a new PC game like Riven is coming out, a PC person is more likely to purchase over the net prior to release. It beats going to the store only to find the game sold out. It also beats a long trip to the store for people who live in rural areas.

I think traditional retail investors have a hard time understanding the e commerce concept. E commerce is not going to replace retail stores. Besides if it does replace retail stores, ELBO is doing the right thing now.

If you read their financial stuff, they are already piloting the sales of preowned games in selected locations.
