I see a SERIOUS problem in EGGS's business model.

According to their website EGGS "... cannot offer International shipping. [and] currently offer shipping only to the United States."

Since Europe is the fastest growing Internet market now, they are losing important marketshare to those online computer stores that DO ship to Europe - these include for example Cyberion Outpost (www.cybout.com).

I see it kind of like peeing your pants to stay hot on a cold day - a very short time relief. As a shareholder I seriously hope they will get their act together and start offering goods to European buyers as well - after all we pay in dollars too.

Would a long term follower of EGGS
be so kind to give a compelling current
overview of EGGS for those new to this thread?

Include as much stuff as possible in a nice readable
format including all their web site url's.

****Give it a good title so newcommers will read it****

Thanks,
S.W.
