RON BL, I don't mean to be ganging up on you or anything... The company does not separately account for catalog and net based sales, but I'm sure that the net based sales lose money for the company. This is the case with almost all other companies that are trying to sell on the net. The reason is that net based sales are small, yet require significant staffing. First, there were the web developers and maintainers, and now they are starting to staff a separate internet subsidiary. If they do decide to break out these numbers separately, I'm sure they will show a loss on the internet side. So, although overall sales are up 7% this year, profits may decrease due to the net.
