Thomas, heheh a regular "contributor" is noticeably quiet. Stepping up to bat for him? Notice from your profile a degree in BS Finance and investing style is anything goes.

Not being a graduate from the factories of wisdom, I am assume BS means the same as it does out here in the woods. Must really have to do it often to keep it fresh!

See, its true,lol.

Thomas,
You obviously have not taken the time to read the SEC filing where you can have every little question answered. If you weren't so negative I would give you the info. Instead, read it yourself and maybe you will be able to sort out the hype from the truth.

Bid.com should do all right when their business-to-business model kicks in. Patents on that dutch auction, motion picture and live interaction starts up on their business-to-consumer model - all this should be a great help for their revenue. Keep in mind, all Bid.com's internet auction competition have had the benefit of the Nasdaq and all that brings with American newspaper promotion, magazines, CNBC-TV, etc.etc. Let's keep our fingers crossed Bid.com will have the privilege of participating on a level playing field within a week or so. Read Waldo's new report I get the feeling that Dutch Auction Patent is way bigger than most of us think. The Internet Auction is valued in the Billions of Dollars and BID.COM's Dutch Auction could be a major contributor.??

Thomas, there have been published references re the number of Bid.com "Registered Bidders". I believe I read this in one of the various Nasdaq filings. The number was apox. 100000 which when you consider the old 80/20 rule and the fact that this pales in comparison to the big US auction players....... Oh well you know what I mean.

>>Why no announcement regarding the number of registered visitors of the BII auction site?
