I believe they are selling under cost in many cases. I don't think they have the purchasing power of say, Sam's Club, to sell a printer cable 68% below what everyone else is selling it for. And to ship it for free adds to the loss on the bottom line. It is good for us as consumers in the short term, but I believe that it will ultimately hasten the demise of the company. I live very near to Charlottesville, and was lucky enough to get in on the IPO and out the first day of trading. I know many people who thought they were going to get rich on this company. Most of them sold quickly. I feel for the people who have held on to this stock. C.J.
