>>Now, how does this not compete with amzn?<< A quote from this article "Today Scott channels most of that competitive energy into work. A whiteboard in his office lists Buy.coms ten goals for 1999. Goal No. 10 reads "Beat Amazon." "We plan to exceed Amazon's revenues in December," Scott says. To put that in perspective, Amazon had $250 million in sales during its last quarter--Buy.com, remember, had about $125 million in sales last year. A stretch? Yes. But according to Scott's estimates, Buy.com is growing 50% faster than Amazon." John I guess where I come from is, when it does it's IPO. Is it going to be another flyer like Amzn? I was impressed with the buy.coms board. I'm thinking about and, it hurts.
