Let me add another fact: They are not interested in business from outside the US = VERY BAD! (the fastest growing segment)

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a software e-tailing debutante tomorrow. Her name is Cyberian Outpost and she is in the same e-tailing peer group as EGGS. This should make life very interesting tomorrow. I missed the conference call, but it almost appears from the financial comparison that it might not even matter tomorrow. Cyberian debuts with 22 million outstanding shares (~approximately the same share count as EGGS) and has $22.7 Million in trailing ANNUAL sales . So, let's see.....rumor has it that Cyberian will price at $17. Guess what?--Cyberian will have the same market cap as EGGS with only 1/4 of the annual sales of EGGS!! HMMM. Other interesting comparison is with gross margins . EGGS gross margins are 10.4% vs. 9.5% at Cyberian. If Cyberian is worth $17, EGGS should be worth a LOT more. Leeza Rodriguez
