Let's hope BID.COM captures the Lion's share of the Canadian e- commerce business (30 million people). The weak Canadian Dollar should be their ace in the hole. 90% of Canadians can't afford to buy from BID.COM's competition in the USA, because of the powerful US$ Dollar.(exc. 1.52)---52% extra.!! Now if the Americans could buy the cheap Canadians products from BID.COM here in Canada, BID.COM would have a double ace in the hold.!! If BID.COM can capture the 30 million Canadians I don't understand why they are not also involved in RETAIL SALES, (Canadian type products) even if they had to form a joint venture.?? To-date 32% of Americans have made a purchase Online, Canada I think only 6%.???? We have a long way to go, but BID.COM is lucky, Look at all the free generic advertising Canadians are getting promoting Internet e-commerce over the American TV channels, this I hope will move Canadians on the fast track to e-commerce.!!!This type of Advertising is just getting started now on Canadian TV.!! At least 30-40% Internet, e-commerce,They say makes up American TV business shows, In Canada there might be 5% Internet e-commerce content on those business shows.??
