Interesting.

So, lets look at USAT and CTRN. Both were halted by the SEC and now trade in the pink sheets. Before the halt, you had the enthusiatic longs and wicked short sellers battling each other on the boards. Some longs sold out because of the information the shorts uncovered. Some longs ignored them and lost almost everything when the truth was finally out.

Yes, the shorts made money when the stock came down. But they saved some longs from disaster by surfacing negative information you can't get from the company or your broker.

And lets face it, short's can't really hurt a good company. Maybe they could get the stock to go down in the short term, but long term growth and profits will always win out.

And as for manipulation on the long side. Gravity will win out. You can't float these things on hot air forever. And they wouldn't pump them if they weren't going to dump them.

Just don't play the bagholder in this game.

Regards,

Archer

Bad news for ebay will be good news for TMRT --- Soon to be a Choice

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Some eBay customers warn they'll bolt

By Troy Wolverton

Longtime eBay customers, tired of recent outages and complaining about a lack of customer service, say they would turn elsewhere if they had a reasonable alternative.

eBay's auctions were inaccessible for nearly seven hours yesterday when the company's database got corrupted. The incident was the second major outage this month; the auctions were down for five hours on May 3 when eBay's database server's hardware failed.

eBay posted information about the outage on its announcement board. Per its policy, the company automatically extended auctions that ended during the outage period and up to one hour after the outage ended. eBay also offered credits on its listing fees for sellers who believed they had been missed business when the site went down.

But for a number of sellers, those steps were not enough.

Thousand Oaks, California resident Ross Wright said he has been selling on eBay since January 1998 without incident until late summer last year. Since then, Wright said he believes eBay has had more problems and has been less responsive to his complaints.

"Their non-existent customer service became even more non-existent," Wright said.

Wright, who sells books, video tapes, collectible toys, and musical instruments, said he has started to shift some of his book inventory over to Amazon's auction site. He said he sees Amazon as eBay's "first real competitor," where he can expand his customer base by listing items there. But he said that many eBay sellers list their items exclusively on eBay.

"I probably would have been one of those people if there hadn't been any problem," Wright said.

Richard Fulton and his wife sell Civil War collectibles on their own Web site and through eBay. An eBay member for about two years, Fulton said the site seems to have become less responsive to small sellers as it has grown.

"I hope they don't forget their roots, but it looks like they are to some degree," Fulton said.

Fulton, a resident of Fredericksburg, Virginia, said he tries to list some 70 items a week on eBay and sells close to $2,000 worth a month. He said he has looked into selling his items elsewhere, but eBay's large user base makes it difficult to move to other auction sites.

"You have to go where the market is," Fulton said.

Like Fulton, Kansas City resident Andy Crofford said he lists his items almost exclusively with eBay. He said he has been selling on eBay for more than two years and that his overall experience with the site has been "good."

But after trying to contact customer service about past problems and not getting much response, Crofford said he has stopped trying.

"I use their auction service. I hope I don't have to deal with their customer service," Crofford said.

Crofford said he planned to list some of the CDs and video games he sells on Amazon in the near future. He said Amazon's reputation for customer service is a key draw. Still, he said he didn't see himself moving over completely.

"If another auction service had (the number of users eBay has), I would definitely move," he said.

eBay spokesman Kevin Pursglove said that despite the company's rapid growth, "we pride ourselves on our customer service." Unlike many sites, eBay tries to keep customers updated on system problems when its site goes down.

Pursglove added that the company tries to treat all of its customers the same, no matter how much they sell on the site.

"If people are concerned with us, they need to let us know and we'll try to address it," Pursglove said.

E-commerce analyst Fiona Swerdow of Jupiter Communications said that eBay's site has been under "enormous strain" as more people list and bid on items. She said Amazon and Yahoo could benefit if eBay doesn't emphasize uptime and customer service.

"If they don't perform on these basics, like any other e-commerce player (must), that's going to hurt them," Swerdlow said.

Well, the short sellers are in force again.

And folks, they are currently holding a BIG short position on TMRT. If they are force to cover, you will see TMRT run back to $50+ dollars in an instant. There collective short position is that large.

The short sellers are going to hold their short position right up until the time for TMRT to go public with the NEW WEBSITE.

They are betting that since the two principles in TMRT have issues in their past regarding the construction business, that they will not succeed in this new venture. (What they do not reveal, negative issues aside, that these are very successful business men who know how to get things done.)

And they are also betting that the new Website will not be at the quality level of ebay and will be cheaply done and put together.

Therefore they are holding their big collective short position hoping that after the Website is released, the price goes to the teens; and thereby give them a huge profit gain.

But, if TMRT delivers the high quality website promised with the ability to stand toe to toe with ebay, then those guys are going to lose BIG.

Because new investors will jump on TMRT with its few free trading shares and send it to the $50 to $100 dollar trading range very easily and very quickly.

You are witnessing the short sellers big push to get the long shareholders to sell. (You see for short selling to really work they must get the long shareholders to sell their shares. Thus the negative push compaign)

The Company executives of TMRT are aware of what the organized short sellers are doing. But they will not play into the short sellers hands.

The company has more press releases in store. (to be released appropriately)

TMRT is continuing to develop more and more strategic relationships that will make them a viable alternative to ebay, amazon etc.

The company has a very agressive, enduring and potentially profitable business model outlined that they are following. (all to be reveal soon)

I have spoiled the short sellers plans of manipulation of the stock by revealing what they are up to.

TMRT is about short sellers verses Long Shareholders.

This is a battle.

And neither knows which will win for certain, for none have seen the finished product.

The short sellers are making their push to make money now in getting the long shareholders to sell looking to push the price down lower, just in case TMRT really does have a product about to be released that can stand toe to toe to ebay.

Investors, the short sellers are shaping information that is to their best interest to protect their big short positions in the stock.
They short sellers make their big gain if they can find away to push the price of the stock into the teens. Thus, the fear campaign.

I have been a member of SI for awhile now, and I know the games which short sellers play.

Some short sellers as you see can be quite ruthless in their efforts to protect and increase the gains of their short position.

Today, they are having their big fun.

But each day is a step closer to the revelation of that new site. And many are going to be quite stunned at the quality and features of that 2TheMart.com WEBSITE.

Therefore, let the short sellers have there fun for today, for in the days following, we shall have ours.

Share holders, the Form 10 will be filed in a "matter of days."

It will contain all typical relevant company information and some information regarding TMRT's strategic alliances but will not reveal of the strategic alliances for competitive reasons.

The only reason the TMRT WEBSITE has not been released yet is because it is a "tremendous" site requiring lots of effort and time. (At the end of 2nd quarter builders will have work on the site for (9) month in building it.)

Also remember, when the site goes live, it will should already have Hundreds of Thousands products listed on it already from vendors which make their living in these vendor to person auctions.

IMO, you are going to discover that the press release stating that the site is one the largest and pre-eminent on the web is an under statement.

truthslayer should be careful, while Magliargiti has had legal issues regarding his construction company, they have no bearing on TMRT and all such legal issues are being or have been dealt with appropriately.

This company is clean and above board with the Form 10 to be filed in a matter of days, THUS a reporting company.

truthslayer's comments are bordering on being very libelous with full documentation as we see spread all over the internet.

Shareholders, when you see this superior website, you are going to look back on what these Short Sellers have done and wonder how did you ever let them deceive you into selling your shares.

(Folks, IMO, not only will this TMRT site equal ebay in quality and features, but it is going to surpass it)

Looks like that lead short seller (flodyie/truthseeker are the same) is very desperate to get Long shareholders to sell via his intense fear and intimidation campaign.

He should not have taken out such a BIG short position in the stock; now he is fantic to get the price lower, because if he tries to cover at this present level, the Market Makers will only shoot the price up on him to over $30 dollars.

And wants to cover a big portion of it before this long weekend begins, least TMRT releases more news on Tuesday.

Its very sad to see an individual have to make money this way, off of fears of others.

His behavior is why many see short selling as a evil/wicked deed, because by its very nature, to be successful, you must use fear and intimidation and anything else to get the long shareholder to sell, so the short seller can cover his large short position for a Huge gain. (thus, the wickeness of short selling)

Ok Bashers..listen up...know that list of dudes with the reg. shares you been tout'n?...3 of them are physicians in the mid-west...part of the old cd-rom yearbook stuff...they're the ones who were going to bail on the switch till they found out the true gig of TMRT.

They had me buy in at 13-14. Then I bought more at 21. So impressed with TMRT they had the prez come to town to talk biz.

If I posted that the prez had dinner with the Korean ambassador(!st consul-midwest) you'd ask "who's the crackhead?"...but it's true. Those dudes still got their shares after selling to regain the initial investment blah, blah, blah...even bought more. This Co.'s going global and it's going big. (My opinion).

So enough with the same stuff already......ok (your way)...I'm really scared! Do you think you could get rid of my shares for me?...yeah right! See ya at the party!

The short sellers are being Sued. Did you see this post below?

Some of the same short sellers that tried to destroy HITT are trying to destroy TMRT.

They took out Big short positions in the stock, then started the bashing, fear and intimidation campaign. And now they are about to be Sued:

The flodyie/truthslayer's "ego" is going to get the best of him.

How shall he face his friends if he fails to destroy TMRT. And what shall become of his Reputation as a Stock Destroyer. How shall he then boast to his friends. He has sent out so much bad press to news reporters and to the SEC, as he has stated, and gotten others to take out large short positions on his word.

How can they trust him now, if he fails. Yes his "ego" is large and shall cause him to stay short to the bitter end. He shall be unable to save himself. For TMRT is his "stombling block" and by his own wickeness he shall fail.

Winners know when to quit and accept an acceptable loss and move on.
There are far too many easy stocks to shorts, than to battle for that hard stubborn one. But only a winner will move on, as the loser stays to fight. (remember, one may lose a battle here or there, but the goal is always to win the war)

He now spends every waking moment wondering what is he going to do next; How can he use fear, deception and intimidation to get more SI long shareholders to sell their shares so he can cover his large short position at a great profit.

And with so many negative public posts, posted by him on the internet, he no doubt wonder if he has committed libel against the company, if it really succeeds after all.

The thing which he did not figure out until too late was that the Majority of the public float of TMRT is own by the Real World, and that SI folks only own a drop in the bucket.

We few Long shareholders put the short seller on notice, that despite his fear and intimidation campaign and negative press, WE choose to keep our TMRT shares. It is our right. We will not sell them at this time.

You are welcomed to stay short as long as you like. But we ask that you 1) Stop your fear and intimidation campaign 2) Stop the deception and deceit & 3) Let the Long shareholders have back their thread with peace and civil discussions.

We will not allow you short seller (flodyie) to steal our shares as a result of your greed, deception & deceit.

(we have brought your motives into the light, which was being hid in darkness)
