COOL is a season stock..$60 by November seems more than reasonable...Just look at last yr when it hit $45...this yrs holiday sales will make last yrs look like minor league in comparison...Yes there's competition, and you can look for the competition's stock to also triple or quadruple in value come that time.

"Face it, cool is a retail sector stock, not an internet sector stock." Your words. You simply do not get it. You are wrong. Outpost.com is an internet sector stock. You are blinded by your ignorance. Walmart currently spends 17-18% of revenue to keep its doors open. The fundamental question is whether ITailing can keep its doors open with less. The strong belief is yes. That said, the business model norms change. Your bearishness does not address new dynamics. If you feel the dynamics will not change, that's one thing. But if you think its possible for these norms and dynamcis to change, then I suggest you try to self reassess. Without the huge overhead expense of real estate and people, ITailing can marginally increase revenue while inversely reducing their percentage of expense. A good bet, is to bet on this fundamental outlook, while its still an outlook. And COOL provides a good tool to exploit this. To garnish wealth, you have to have vision before everyone else does. Your myopic view most likely will cost you a lot of money. Close the short quickly. Your prediction of $6 when COOL was at 15-16, is not holding up. Buy COOL on the dips, and hold. If you are a trader, now is a good time tome to pick up shares. And again, BCST, a tiny 7 million dollar company was bought for 6 BILLION dollars. WHY? Because of the FUTURE prospects. And that's why you should buy COOL. Especially if one believes in the retail (ITailing) model will be revolutionized.
