You are basically investing an experiment of marketing approach in Ecommerce. you're betting it will win, and over the very long term, you might be right as companies need to outspend each other to maintain market share. but by then the large players will just consolodate by buying up the smaller ones like they do in all industries when their growth levels off. TSIG is in a crowded market where marketing is key to grabbing new customers to the Ecommerce landscape, and by doing this experiment they risk staying small and unknown to all but a few special case organizations that resell their cards. Again, if you believe in this experiment, then by all means, invest and hold. I never bought into this line of crap, rather I was investing in what I thought a year ago was an early entry into the online Music selling market. But so many delays and lack of marketing have put me off to the point where I can't wait to sell this ill concieved experiment as soon as possible.

Check it out He is correct! This is the third occurence of this exact thing happening. These are more than coincidences (IMHO). The .62 trade stopped the mad rush to buy dead in its tracks, as it did on the other occasions. What can we do? something strange is a foot. freak!!

Great response. Are you actually saying that I should wonder about the viability of TSIG's marketing plan when the alternative is that of the industry leader's "spend-all-and-make-none" marketing plan. How do you come to the understanding that TSIGs marketing plan is conservative. TSIG is doing business in a different way. TSIG is changing the way marketing to, obtaining and retaining consumers is done. Change and doing things differently is far from conservative. With their marketing plan, TSIG is forging ahead where none have gone before. That is exciting, potentially very profitable and not in the least, Conservative. Reminds me of the guy who started FedEx. He wrote his doctoral thesis on the concept and his professor said it was a bad idea, that it would never work. And gave the thesis a "C."
