BUYBIDSELL.COM is also a (EBID) AcuBid.Com Inc domain.

Thanks for clearing up larry's e-mail "Can Do", its larrys@ACUVISION.COM, not @ebid.com. Sorry for that confusion. It would be nice if they could buy "ebid.com", but IMO right now they need to focus all their cash on getting the site up and running, on compensating their software people, and eventually on advertizing. We shouldn't be expected a huge IR operation or a PR factory right now, these guys have some work to do. Eventually, when the revenue starts flowing, I'm sure they'll have enough cash to buy ebid.com, but I would be surprised if they could afford that too soon. It would be nice tough:) Obviously since ebid.com is currently owned by a sex site, they should be willing to sell it at the right price, they certainly didn't pick that name simply to attract customers, the name is focused on getting "accidental" customers. And besides, as I pointed out earlier, the name of the company is acubid.com, and they own that domain name, and that is all that truly matters. I don't think they should try to be called EBID as a company name, they'll draw too many comparisons to EBAY, UBID, IBUY, and IBUI, all of which EBID could blow away eventually in the quick moving web auction environment. After all, I would rather have an "ACU"rrate auction site than simply an "E"lectronic one, Acubid is a great name! BTW, in case you haven't notice I'm not too much of a typist or speller - there, that's the only apology you're going to get.
