Jan -- do you know 'when' the buying 'might' take place? Could it have happened already? Or MUST they buy at the close?

One popular Internet company, Priceline.com Inc. of Stamford, Conn., isn't
concerned about the crackdown. The Stamford, Conn., electronic retailer is
best known for allowing consumers to name their own price for airline
tickets, hotel rooms and rental cars. In the case of airline tickets, Priceline
recognizes as revenue the entire dollar figure of ticket sales. Traditional travel
agencies, in contrast, typically book as revenue only the commission they
make on ticket sales.
