I think you're wrong there. It looks like VUSA and PCLN have similar arrangements, except that they probably couldn't promote as visibly as PCLN did. Below from ValueAmerica.com:

Dear Value America customer,

Over the past several weeks, we've received many inquiries from Value America
customers who are interested in obtaining more information about or participating in our
upcoming initial public offering.

One of the brokerage firms participating in our offering, E*TRADE, has agreed to make
shares available for purchase by Value America customers who have an account at
E*TRADE.

Here is what you'll need to do if you are interested in applying to purchase shares.

First, visit E*TRADE's Value America information area at
www.etrade.com/vusa.html. Here, you'll be able to get details about our offering,
including updates on the timing of the IPO and our prospectus. If you are
interested in applying to purchase shares you can link to an online E*TRADE
account application from there.
Second, shortly before our IPO comes to the market you'll be able to apply for
shares. You will need to periodically visit the IPO Center at E*TRADE for
information on when and how you may provide E*TRADE with an indication of
your interest in participating in Value America's initial public offering.

However, there is no guarantee that you will receive IPO shares, even after your
delivering to E*TRADE an indication of interest and your complying with such other
procedures as may be required by E*TRADE.

Obviously, you don't pay anything if you don't actually receive shares.

As always, thank you for shopping at Value America.
