Morgan Fred Rest in Peace United States 2684 Posts	Posted 06/01/2005 8:05 pm While this topic may be of interest only to those of us who are ebay stockholders and may be dry to everyone else, I thought I'd post it since it will have a direct impact on ebay's valuation. http://www.forbes.com/feeds/ap/2005...2071781.html It's speculation only at this point, but it may be surmised that the purchase of Shopping.com will offset ebay's loss of quality buyers and sellers over the past few months, especially as we have seen, in the coins categories. Shopping.com has a coins section, of sorts: http://www.shopping.com/xDN-Gifts_a...-5~CLT-HSNLF Report this Post to the Staff

national dealer Pillar of the Community United States 2724 Posts	Posted 06/01/2005 8:38 pm This news was expected for some time now. Shopping.com has been a growing segment and the best way to rid yourself of competition is to buy it. Report this Post to the Staff
Susanlynn9 Forum Mom United States 5877 Posts	Posted 06/01/2005 9:20 pm This is just the most recent in a very long list of aquisitions. I am surprised that Overstock has withstood ebay's offers (and I would be very surprised to find that ebay hasn't made offers). As soon as an auction site looks like it might succeed, ebay breaks out the checkbook. Report this Post to the Staff
