Dagan,as you are well aware this stock has started trading heavily in the US. Many of the new investors and traders have no access to Canadian publications. If you provide a URL for these allegations, it certainly would make your reprints more credible. Thanks Dave K.

Dagan, just one small correction re Pavans comments please. BII's GM for '98 was 3.6%. I know they tried to spin the 6%+ rate from the last quarter into a very good news story but I'd like to know when they started moving negative GM to marketing. Could this explain the 4th quarter GM improvement? Also the post suggests a 'profit margin' when in fact it's a gross margin and BII has no profits. >>Bid.Com has a profit margin of 6.8 percent compared to 8.5 percent for uBid, due to a high turnover of low-margin products such as computers and electronics, Pavan noted.
