Here is the article... but be careful, it come's from the National post and you know all that they hate Internet player's Friday, March 26, 1999 Bid.Com rumours burn up chat lines 'S00000 excited': Speculation of takeover, national Nasdaq listing To: Denise D (12202 ) From: CBurnett Sent: March 20, 9:37 p.m. (EST) Hello Bid.Com ownersÉ Looking forward to fantastic week. I'm sooooo excited about Bid.COM. I plan to buy more shares this week. To: Spark From: RG Sent: March 21, 2:51 p.m. (EST) It seems Bid.com has a plan to go on the Nasdaq national board 30 days after the Nasdaq small-cap. They must have some other press releases due about that time. Patience is the word. Hold on to your investment. The national board will attract mutual fund managers. IMO this is when this stock will take off. I for one will hold my investment for a longer term. I've seen over and over what power the U.S. markets can have on Inet stocks once they become a recognized and reputable name. They are rewarded heavily. This is what we all want. So, let's keep our Bid.com above the $5 (US) range after the listing. That is not to say it won't on its own, but I have also seen the power of the traders in action! Thoughts?

To: Tony Lipari (12382 ) From: Boolish Sent: March 22, 2:00 p.m. (EST) Would not even think of selling yet É this is only the beginning. We may do 6 million today. First day on the Nasdaq will see volumes and valuations much higher than they are now. To: donkeyman (12406 ) From: StockJock-e Sent: March 22, 2:45 p.m. (EST) There will probably be an announcement some time this week, the stock doesn't pop 20% in one day for no reason, either that or this is just a technical breakout. To: F. Evans (12476 ) From: Tiger USA Sent: March 22, 9:55 p.m. (EST) I'm sure the BID.COM management team has been legal about "keeping quiet" about the progress of Nasdaq. But, what about the new U.S. market makers. Is it possible they have been talking to clients? Just wondering. To: The Saint From: Dagan Sent: March 23, 2:58 p.m. (EST) Remember BII has no obligation to announce listing approval until 48 hours after obtaining final Nasdaq approvals. In other words it is most likely they have already received SEC approvals to apply to Nasdaq. To: Dagan (12586 ) From: CBurnett Sent: March 24, 3:15 a.m. (EST) It's more than rumours pushing this thing. Supply and demand É supply is tightening!!! To: GJP (12710 ) From: Michael Block Sent: March 24, 10:40 a.m. (EST) There is a rumour, I repeat a rumour they are being taken over by EBAY. I heard this from two independent sources. Maybe someone can look into this rumour. To: Michael Block From: fuddle Sent: March 24, 11:14 a.m. (EST) That would certainly be a smart move for EBAY and they could afford to pay a huge premium with their stock where it is. To: Professor Dotcomm (12916 ) From: iman11 Sent: March 25, 10:09 a.m. (EST) What worries me is that the growth in Q4 wasn't that good. To: BlueChip (13107 ) From: donkeyman Sent: March 25, 10:58 a.m. (EST) A takeover would mean what on a $12/share company???
