These are cheap shares, the panic has provided a great opportunity.~ I'm calling in my order on Mon.~
bf~
Looks though its about to head back up.~
bf~
However I think i found the next EBAY check this one out AUCI.~
Undiscovered relatively new IPO with a great Share structure Outstanding share count 44m.~ They just aligned with CARFAX.~

The auto auction industry is a $350 Billion dollar industry. If they just take in 0.05% of the industry, using an industry average PE of 15, the valuation is $60/sh.
Using EBAY’s PE of 21, the valuation increases to $83.~
I found this at http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/board.asp?board_id=10536
I really think once this gets discovered it has the best potential for this sector.~
Hope it helps

Guys, I was researching for online stocks related to EBAY.~ This one came up, after further research i dont think this stock is for me.~ Its been going nothing but down as they increase the shares.
good luck~
bf-
Thats great did you get him to sign up for autobidlive.com site? You might be on the right track, I think they are waiting for January for the exchange move.~
bf-
Putting some more in before they leave for the day~ The word is getting out in the industry. look forward to see web ads in the future when they start full blown marketing.

Auctions International Partners with Carfax
In other Auctions International news, the company announced it is teaming with Carfax. As part of the deal, consumers will be able to access vehicle history reports from Carfax through vehicle listings.
Additonally, dealers can buy the history reports from the AutoBidLive Web page.
"Our decisive choice to integrate CARFAX Vehicle History Reports ensures our customers will have access to one of the central aspects of our business today — vehicle history information," Mann stated. "We're extremely excited about this enhancement to our services and the added benefits it gives our customers."
bf~
Just like EBAY as more and more users(dealers) sign up, growth will be come exponential.~ Just like we have a choice between yahoo and google, dealers will now have another choice where they can build and swap inventory.~
Up until now, manheim has had a virtual monopoly. Autobid just sat at the table, when it just launched its website.~ Up until now manheim has been eating the billion dollar pie alone. Now that autobid is sitting at the table,its bound to get some of that billion dollar pie.~
From ibox, great research btw~
: According to Forrester Research, online auction sales will grow to $54.3 billion -- or 25% of total U.S. online retail sales -- in 2007. Retailers, portals, and vendors will work to legitimize the format and attract as many consumers as possible to fuel the growth. Proprietary technology that can create a fair trading ground between buyers and sellers will be in high-demand. http://www.forrester.com/Research/Document/Excerpt/0,7211,37848,00.html
Yeah good point manheim went private so cant invest there. For dealers will be another alternative then ove.com. Its a win for dealers and unlike manheim, autobid is with CarFax, and we can invest on the ground level.~
bf
Yeah, all it will take is more and more users signing up. I'm not investing in what is now, but the potential going forward. That potential is huge, thats why I'm here. Were lucky to be in on the ground level. Lets keep in mind they just recently ipo-ed and launched the first auction site. So far management has been nothing but on point with executing the business plan.
bf~
In addition to a great business model and competent management, the execution of the business plan includes a marketing campaign to over 70,000 dealers across North America. Carfax is just one of the strategic alliances AUCI has put into place to grow their user base.
I remember when Ebay was first starting, it didn't have a huge user base and the site wasn't the fanciest, but it had one sure thing: A great business plan. Back then, in 1995, it was called AuctionWeb and look at where it is today. Whats great about autobidlive.com, is it brings this business model to the dealer to dealer market niche.
Yeah it did well, might provide entry lower.~
Looks strong reversal.~
Heres a past Pr, that demonstrates why the Car Fax alliance is a win/win~
This is the part from post before
"These partners and others in the pipeline provide value-added services such as vehicle history reporting and listing services, which makes virtual trading reliable, easy and economically worthwhile. Our partners also will participate in co-marketing our services to their established customer base."
kinda eluded to it.~

"We are now focused on increasing our membership base and postings. Our primary challenge is to increase our market awareness and demonstrate the viability of our business model. We have put in place several strategic relationships, such as CarrierRates.com and UShip.com, which allow our members to receive prices and bids on transportation services.

Yeah true,the auto site's potential alone is enormous. Down the road now that the platform is proven/tested. I believe i saw that in a Pr, that they are planning other site roll-outs.
Very good step forward.~
This alliance should help them expedite increasing our membership base and postings.~
bf-
I added to my investment. It will take some time, but if they can execute their business model, I see nothing but upside for investors here.
got a starter after a long wait~
bf-
Tried to take a starter today, have order in but no fill at
55~
Thanks i knew I saw it somewhere, that should be key going forward. Think I will try a starter position.~

Creede
just started researching AUCI on ihub board, new small cap ipo, i like what im researching. Think its a ground floor opportunity.
was thinking of taking a starter position mon. 44 mil o/s
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/board.asp?board_id=10536
The other 2 im hearing some positives and have a few Wlm, this one is possible buyout/merger play and has to go 1.00+ to retain listing on NYSE in the next 2 weeks, o/s 33 mil. Utei, buying based on chart, looks like a-lot of accumulation in NOV, and seems near bottom. O/s is 50 mil.~
bf-
What was the reason this chart woke up? Trying to catch up on prs?~
bf-
Wow, looks like it will go blue sky if 51.50 breaks, very nice chart~ Did you all-ready choose it for weeks pick>?
bf-
Stock contest
Can you enter me for grrf, chart suggest a bounce up.
thanks
bf~
Whats everyone watching this week?~
Well thats the spirit~
Whats sad is, I was in this stock in 06 and sold for a profit, but never got back in. So stupid, I mean makes sense as a way to deal with prison overcrowding.
Should of bought and just held this one~
Wow great info~ In pr says "The service organizations we have identified represent over 5,000 dealers and over one million cars. We hope to finalize an agreement with such a key service organization in the very near future."
That alone could bring them up over the 700 level.~ Are you using 44 os for that table?~
Company seems to be implementing ways to grow it's user base, business model seems sound. If they can grow out the user base, the future could be very bright. Low overhead and good profit margins.
