Michelle, FWIW there is a PCLN-like site being prepared for IPO rollout by PA/VV. It's called Mercata and it is an online co-op buying site. Apparently when a product is offered the number of individuals that sign up for it determines the amount of discount. Individuals are guaranteed the product at the best rate obtained by volume discounting but in no event greater than the amount they initially agreed to pay. How this will interact with GNET is as yet unknown, but if PA has plans to aggregate all of his 'net sites under one umbrella this particular site should generate large numbers of "sticky" eyeballs.
