VUSA is my biggest loser right now but I am holding based on several of the factors mentioned here: To: Craig A. Anderson (493 ) From: radhltheng ( Ignore ) Wednesday, Jun 16 1999 7:41AM ET Reply # of 495 It is finally great to hear others optimistic on VUSA. I use VUSA all the time I buy alot of supplies from them and it has always been great. I own 2250 shares ranging from 50 to 27 a share and I loved the recent bounce with no real news to drive it. I think if this company had came public a month earlier it would have been huge. If you go back 8 months and look at ubid and onsl they both were 100+ dollar stocks and they lost more money and have horrible EPS. VUSA had an 1173% revenue growth rate from year over last quarter and it also has the highest customer retention rate of anyone on the web. I too feel that with it's partnerships and add companies ie. Wall street journal. I see the potential for the stock to have a slight down trend further however it has huge uptrend potential. I think if VUSA has a great quarter earnings report we could see a quick move. I feel the stock should hit 50 this year as well, maybe even 100 in the next year. We shall see but with me at such a loss I will hold my shares until it at least hits 50 and then wait and see then. Good luck with your trades and hope to read more of your posts.

VUSA has the prototypical "deconstructed value chain" business model that is going to dominate the next generation of technology enabled businesses. VUSA provides brilliant sales and marketing and essentially outsources every other element in the chain--logistics, manufacturing, etc. Plus provides real customer service, a real differentiator on the web. This company is going to be a big winner; it is just a question of when. I love their business model, if you can't tell! I've made some bad calls, but I bought a lot of Excite at 4, so I do have some sense for these internuts. VUSA looks like a sleeper to me. Continuing to accumulate at these levels. AMZN's market cap is $18 billion; VUSA is $770 million, and I think VUSA may have a better long-run potential. Good luck to all VUSA longs. Regards, Craig A. Anderson xcitfan@excite.com
