Investor's have been awakened by Imal! This was taken from another thread and many or posting VERY POSITIVE comments about Imal's new Website's, "Stuff. Com" and "Animal House". Com The sites are receiving many hits and Customers are very Pleased, and Impressed! This will deffinately increase the success of thier business. By anyone's Business standards.

What has this guy Anthony@pacific got to gain by investing so much time in trashing IMALL? The only thing I know of that drives a person like Anthony is driven is the potential for that person, Anthony, to profit by trashing IMAL. He must have shorted at 13!!!!!

IMALL is very diverse. I especailly like www.animalhouse.com and students at the three neighborhood universities (UNC-Chapel Hill, NC State University, and Duke University) seem to agree since most students visit that site for a number of reasons.

Then there is STUFF.COM. In fact there are many portals to the products and businesses represented at IMAL. IMAL probably has more domain names than any other e-commerce site allowing people to get to the contents of IMALL through many entrances.

And the prices....they are in line with all the other sites. I've compared a whole list of items at many sites and IMAL compares favorably.

And IMALL is creating communities, such as www.animalhouse.com, where persons congregate and do other things besides shopping which, in turn, keeps people at the site longer and keeps people returning. Therefore, IMALL is not only likely to sell more merchandise, but it is a prime location for targeted advertising. Hence the AT&T agreement, because what demographic does long distance calling more than college students?

Anthony seems obsessed that some guy Richards (how many people are there with the last name Richards?) is a crook and is involved with IMALL in some way. I find it EXTREMELY HARD TO BELIEVE that there is anything disreputable about IMALL since so many VERY WELL KNOWN reputable companies are dealing with them extensively (AT&T, First DATA, Toys-R-US and other merchants, as well as a slew of University Bookstores).

IMAL is a multiple winner, even though it is slow getting off the ground compared to amazon.com.
