Wooden Nickel, I am inclined to agree with with your comments. May be they are projecting themselves to be something they are not. There appears to be far too much of a manual component in the things they do, hence their growth is unlikely to be sustainable over a long period of time.I don't see any barriers to entry in the reverse auction business. That said, FMKT may do well in other areas of the B2B space. I just don't see the reverse auction space as the key to their success. -Q
