Miqeul, what your missing in the debate over prices thru various shopping sites is name recognition and the fact that not everyone will surf the net for the best prices. The extensive ad campaign EGGS is initiating will generate name recognition and most folks will assume EGGS prices are better than retail shops. Gap may have better prices but does that stop people from buying the Polo brand or Armani at discount centers? Name recognition is one factor to keep in mind regarding EGGS being served sunnyside up or scrambled.

Buycomp almost always has the best price Buycomp may often have the best price, but numbers two and three are usually just 5cents below that. Anyway, since Buycomp don't do international sales they will be out of business very soon. The growth in Europe is double that of US and soon the market here will be exceeding the US by far. Web companies who don't realize this will be out of business very soon!
