Doug,

I'm sure you already know this, but don't believe everything you read in the papers. It's always up for discussion!

Denise.

Dagan,

If you,re comparing BII to BreX you might as well throw in all the internet companies. YHOO, XCIT, ATHM, AOL, EBAY, IVIL ...etc etc

SirVinny,

PS. Still waiting for reply concerning AOL's exclusive agreement.

This reporter who wrote the story has nerve to bring up the name of BRX with another company in the first place. That's not fair. Is every company in Canada now suspected of being another BRX?

Second,
How is aol going to effect Bid.com? Aol will still carry a link to the Bid.com web site. Not long ago, Bid.com made the statement they were going to reduce advertising expenses and this includes not having to pay AOL outrageous prices. I rarely saw Bid.com advertised on AOl anyway.

Plus, you and I do not know at this point what other strategic alliances Bid.com has planned, now do we?

Doug, below is the actual excerpt from the Globa and Mail, as you have mentioned. You lie when the you state that analysts are comparing BII to BRX. The quote was in relation to the TSE credibility, not BII credibility.

Be careful what you say Doug, maybe someone @ BII is watching. BTW, I apologize for saying you are bordering on stock manipulation. Anyways, you have no stock and noone listens to you. Therefore, doesn't matter what you say. Keep on pumping out misinformation, it fits your character.

Toronto-based Bid.com, which operates an online auction house, soared $6.90 to end at $26.80, cracking the $1-billion market capitalization mark for the first time. Earlier, it hit a record $29.45.

Mr. Stewart warned that investors are fooling themselves if they believe Bid.cCom is worth more than $1-billion. "They had $6.4-milion in sales in the 4th quarter and $6.3-million in the third quarter. They are not growing at a million miles a second".

Some of the interest in Bid.Com follows the TSE's decision this week to include the company in the benchmark TSE300 index - a move Mr. Duncan said he finds puzzling as the exchange tries to regain credibility in the wake of the Bre-X Minerals Lt.d scandal."
