Bid.Com has followed a very precise business plan from the beginning. As to date they have met or exceeded all of their promises to shareholders. Since Q4 they have greatly increased product offerings (more variety), started to sell the higher margin playing cards, and become more aggressive in their add campaign. The next step just as they have told us it will be will be Nasdaq. They have not let us down so far? I agree the numbers were slightly poorer than I thought but why would you sell now? I agree with Sili when he states the next quarter sales are even more important. THe markets have not reacted badly why should we? The brokerage houses for the most part are not hanging on to lose money.

LOL! RG, Your just "pumping" the questions out now ain't yah? LOL As I stated in my last post to you, the industry leaders have major backing behind them financially and even though BIDN has yet to show the "numbers" that company obviously has some major support behind it. And it has nothing to do with daytraders in themselves. The reason why BIDN is so high is because that company is viewed as the next EBAY, and when it hits NASDAQ, it will soar due to the low float and major profile it will receive. It already has managed to get front page coverage on SI and I am sure other websites as well. This is what makes the difference in this market, and as much as I hate to admit, being an American company doesn't hurt either. I know this seems pretty weird, and it probably is, but in this business it would appear that what matters the most is not "what you know or what you can do as a company, but who you know and who is willing to put up the cash to expose you to the masses" And the share price rises accordingly. Go figure! LOL
