Thanks for the response. Seems like you know quite a bit about this company. In your opinion why does BIDS have ZERO potential?

a company that had actual revenue of approx 500k last year And you got that number from ???? Please don't tell me by applying 1998's 3.9% avg gm against the sales of $23M then restating in US dollars. That's the closest I can come to figuring out where you got 500K (and actually it's closer to 600K that way than 500K). If this is what you did, it is incredibly misleading, and could only be so deliberately. It's clear you consider yourself a sophisticated investor, so you couldn't make such an error from simple naivite, applying EBay's revenue models against Bid.com's business when you know they are entirely different.

BTW, your statement that the company had actual revenue of approx 500K is a fabrication, IMHO meant to mislead the casual reader. FWIW, I've reported it to the Webmaster. I have little patience with posters who are rude, off the topic, obscene or deliberately provocative and then run to the Webmaster when someone does it back...but I have less patience for what appears to me to be a transparent attempt to scare potential or current investors. Keep your postings to facts. Or, as I've said before, don't bother posting at all: if you don't believe you can influence the share price there's no reason for you to be here. If you're confident you know where the share price is headed, simply invest as your analysis dictates and let your satisfaction come from being right, not from rubbing others' noses in it. (Which, before you start in on me, is the same advice I've offered longs) WUWT
