Named "IPO of the Week" by Renaissance Capital... With books, CDs, videos, toys, electronics, clothing, PCs and software already extensively covered by entrenched online retailers, health and beauty products is one of the only significant retail markets that does not yet have a dominant force on the web. Our IPO of the week plans to be that dominant force. Unlike most other e-tailers who have to constantly look over their shoulder for e-tailing giant Amazon.com, drugstore.com counts Amazon as a partner and investor. In addition, offline drugstore giant Rite Aid is a partner and investor. With such backing, a first mover advantage, and a tremendous amount of cash drugstore.com could very well achieve its goal. While it is still very small, the market opportunity is huge and management is strong.
