"Das Konzept klingt dabei irgendwie vertraut. Immerhin wagte sich schon vor einigen Jahren letsbuyit auf den Markt und scheiterte 2002 damit - nicht zuletzt am Rabattgesetz. Oschütz lässt sich von diesem Negativbeispiel nicht beeindrucken und sagt: “Bei snipgo sind es dir Kunden, die den Preis dem möglichen Händer vereinbaren.” Ob der sich auf den Preisvorschlag einlässt, steht ihm offen. Oschütz denkt dabei beispielsweise an Saisonware, die die Händer aus ihren Regalen verbannen wollen." Join discussion...

"Heckman was most recently at Fox Interactive Media; he joined Fox when his company, Scout.com, was acquired by them in 2005 for $60 million. Heckman was also the chief negotiator at Fox in their $1 billion search deal with Google. In other words, they made a heavyweight addition to the management team. Kleiner Perkins’ John Doerr supposedly recruited him personally." Join discussion...

"Sedo bietet seine Dienstleistungen in mehreren Sprachen an und erwirtschaftete 2006 einen Umsatz von mehr als 41 Millionen Euro - in etwa doppelt so viel wie im Jahr zuvor. 70 Prozent davon stammten aus Auslandsgeschäften. 2004 zog Sedo an seiner Konkurrenz in den USA vorbei und erreichte mit einem Marktanteil von 40 Prozent die Weltmarktführerschaft. Diese Position wurde 2007 durch die Übernahme von Great Domains, dem einstigen Konkurrenten in den USA, gesichert." Join discussion...

"“We sell about $30,000 worth of books for Amazon every month,” said Mr. Buckman, who gets 8 percent of the take. BookMooch is hardly the first or the only book-swapping site. The list includes SwapTree.com and TitleTrader.com, which also trade CDs and DVDs; SF-Books.com, which specializes in science fiction; and the Book Exchange Network (tbxn.com), which helps college students exchange textbooks.

"If you look at the walled garden of content today, whether its eBay or Monster.com or Overture, etc. They basically create and get a lot of value from the ownership of the data. As we get to the UGC (user-generated content) world where users own their own data, what happens to a Monster.com if anybody can publish a job announcement off the website? It then gets syndicated and anybody can aggregate that. The value that they believe in ownership of the data will disappear and where you will get value as a service to layer on top of them."
