I am an early buyer who did not sell. Too bad the pump and dumpers created negative vibes. This is a great concept. A business can write off the $30/mo. If it only assists one deal per year, its a terrific investment. There will be copy cats as there has been with search engines. But these front runners in this niche are well focused. Number one rule of marketing... know thy customer. Everything I see here says they will target well and create great brand awareness. There are too many big name partners for this to be only hype. Loking at our volumes, I have to believe we have created a new base of believers over the last few days. Some of us have stuck it out and watched our market value drop, but the new buyers see much more than $5.

Prosperous Soul - I noticed when you were explaining the website, you said "our database..." Was that a slip or do you work for PNLK? Jack

FWIW, As just one example of needing consultation with an expert for a special problem. You can post a letter of credit on the web site. If PNLK provides assistance with this or does the letter of credit themselves at the request of the user, it would be reasonable to expect that this could result in a value added fee which may result in additional revenue for the PNLK. With some custom brokers, a fee from $100 to $250.00 may be charged for writing up a letter of credit, depending upon the complexity of the terms. For those who are not familiar with letters of credit, these are basically legal contracts delineating all of the terms of the interchange including method and terms of payment, responsibility for freight charges and guarantees of product quality or quantity. You need to have your t's crossed and your i's dotted correctly. If you don't get them right, you are up for grabs with trading partners of unknown integrity. If all of the terms are not fulfilled to the satisfaction of both parties, the banks can be instructed to withhold payment on this basis.

1) Revenue potential; 2) Recent buying Revenue potential From what I can determine, the revenue potential that PNLK has goes far beyond the subscriber fee of $30/month. It would appear that PNLK is contemplating establishing themselves as a clearing house, which has the ability to offer many value added services (for a fee of course). Has anyone that has taken the time to contact the company gotten a feel of where PNLK expects to derive its revenues? Is this detailed in any of the investor literature that some of you have indicated that you've received? Recent buying Someone posted an analysis of the volume traded activity over the past week or so relative to historical trading volumes. And there have been mannnny posts on the cause of the ups and downs in price we've seen. I guess this pattern could be indicative of what is referred to as a "pump & dump" or MM manipulation, but I thought I'd through out another scenario...a major player takes notice in PNLK and decides to take a major position in the company. What would we see be most likely to see in terms of trading activity? A discreet number of very larges blocks traded at prenegotiated prices? Several smaller (10,000-50,000 share) buys over a number of days? At what point does this player have to file with the SEC and when would this become public? Still trying to explain the volume in my own mind. Thoughts welcome!
