Oh, yeah, I also added that CNBC's fluff piece on Friday didn't even have any novelty value because of the dozens of preexisting discount perfume websites. A press release (an inept one at that) does not news make. Come on! Perfume? It is a dying custom and a social faux pas in many situations now. Every woman I know says she's got years worth of the stuff lying around. Nobody cares about a perfume website (it is a technically nice one, though). That is all this bubble was based on.

And since you like crossposting my articles, here are a few more:

I personally took a short position before Anthony announced his as I think a few others did. There was no conspiracy. It was the most obvious trade I've ever made. I am sorry many were hurt, particularly any novice investors. I know you all just wanted to get in on a hot stock. This thing was rotten from the start and there is no way to cover that up. There will be new opportunities to recoup (but not with this one). I made it a point to not post on this board while I was short. Yet my articles kept being crossposted here by antagonists. I am out of this stock now so here is my first and last post.

I'll leave you with the kind of information I search for when looking for crap stocks:
techstocks.com

Good luck to you all!
