Weird preopening. BII shows pre down C$0.95 and BIDS shows down only 1/8, or C$0.18. Looks like the US is going to lead us out of this. Z

Agreed. IMHO, I believe that the patent is worth a great deal of money. When Bid.Com gets it licencing agreements in place throughout the world and they already have 2 in place and are also talking to Asia, they can turn this patent into a moneymaker. It is logistically difficult to operate one web site for the whole world because of delivery problems, customs, different time zones, language, etc. So, it would seem that each country will have to develop their own auction site. Bid.Com's declining auction will also be there (along side other auction sites of course) but we'll be the only one with the declining auction. I wonder what value this gives the PATENT, probably more than the whole company is presently worth ??
