I know that fighting the tape is ALWAYS unprofitable, but after reading the PCMag comparison of EBAY vs ONSL, I think there's a mispricing going that will eventually (after I've gone broke) resolve itself in favor on ONSL Also - ONSL -- Price/book : 7.62; Price/sales: 2.31 EBAY -- Price/book : 373; Price sales: 89. Of course there is the little matter that EBAY is profitable and ONSL isn't, but when did that ever become a consideration in this market? The Street must see some advantage in EBAY's business model vs ONSL's, I guess. Oh, well. Might as well take the dogs to chase sticks in the ocean now that it's low tide than try to figure that one out.
