much for me. I can't make a model of how much revenue they will receive. NM is clearly not going to make it on infomercials alone. Read the 10Q and 10K. Sales were down because of lack of innovative products to sell. They need this web deal. It could be brilliant, but I can't tell based on public statements so far.

the idea that "everything costs less" seems like a brilliant idea to me. they check other site's prices (for books) and then you get it for less. other than brand awareness (something they seem to have lots of traditional experience with), why would anyone shop elsewhere?

Shane, well spoken!! Since CD has only hired NM to do the marketing and promoting of Netmarket's web site called "everything4less",
it is 100% certain to me that CD gets most of the money and that NM will fizzle. I am not a NM shorty, I do not possess any shares in NM, but I hate to see that people are misinformed and are investing in a company for the wrong reasons. If you own shares in NM you do NOT own shares in "everything4less", because CD is the proprietor. You only possess shares in a marketing vehicle. Beware!

Your point is well taken, and I agree with you completely. There is some sort of arrangement between CD and NM and we don't know for sure at this point. Hope everything will be answered on Monday. I bet on NM. I have a question for you. Can you put in an order to buy and at the same time (even before the market opens), put in a stop order to reduce a loss if the price goes below a certain price?
