My COOL hypothesis for revenues this quarter: Two days ago, I placed an order to buy a Digital Sony Camera from COOL for $729.00 (and free shipping), EGGS sold the same for $833 Anyway, my order number was WO534990. Last night, I ordered an Epson printer for $299 ( the Epson 850) and my order number was WO536709 And that was less than 24 hours time between orders. Take a look at the last four digits... I'll bet each order is sequentially one digit higher. So in less than a 24 hour period, 6709 - 4990 = 1719 orders in less than a 24 hour period (about 18 hours). Now I don't know what the typical order amount is (the average), but I'll take a conservative guess of $175. (even though my two personal orders averaged $550.) Lets say 1800 orders are placed daily X $175 average purchase = $315K revs per day. $315,000 X 30 days = $9.45 million per month 3 months (1 sales quarter) X 9.45 million = $28.35 million in revs. You of course can play with the numbers any way you choose. And that's with just one week of TV/Print advertising. My point? Last quarter revs were $17 million. If this quarter gets $28 million in revs.. That would be a 65% increase from last quarter. And probably some phenomenal % increase from the same quarter in 1997. (which is how companies announce these things) Do you realize what that would do to COOL's stock? To the moon, alice! -DavidCG
