FANDOM LICENSES INVENTORY FULFILLMENT TO ROJEK!
DEAL PROVIDES 'EVENTUAL PURCHASE' OF WEB SITE AND URL TO CMI!
http://www.comicon.com/splash/
April 20: Debra Streicker-Fine, CEO of Fandom Inc., announced Thursday that the company has given Ross Rojek's CMI Holding Group the exclusive license to sell inventory from FandomShop. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Sources tell the SPLASH that Rojek will move to launch an immediate on-line blow-out of existing Fandom Shop inventory, perhaps as soon as next week. Insiders say Rojek is moving quickly to spread Fandom Shop beyond the borders of Fandom.com, hoping to set up fulfillment partnerships and ad swaps with the remaining comics and pop culture sites on the Internet.
The announcement came two days after the SPLASH reported that CMI CEO Ross Rojek would take over operation of Fandom Shop, the e-commerce arm of recently collapsed Fandom Inc. Sources close to the action told the SPLASH that the deal involved an agreement between Rojek, Fandom Inc. and Steve Geppi, who had slapped a lien on Fandom's inventory at the Manassas VA warehouse last week after resigning his seat on the Fandom Board of Directors. The agreement is said to free the inventory to Rojek immediately. Sources tell the SPLASH that Geppi will play no formal role in the arrangements once he has secured the money he is owed.
ICv2 reported on Friday that: "Streicker-Fine told ICv2 that the Fandom Shop inventory, which is stored at Fandom's Manassas, Virginia fulfillment center, would continue to be sold from that location. Orders that had been taken by Fandom but not shipped will be fulfilled by CMI. In addition to the agreement to sell the inventory on Fandom's behalf, the deal provides for the eventual purchase of the Fandom Shop website and the Fandomshop.com URL by CMI. The deal does not include Fandom Shop's 250,000-name catalogue mailing list."
ICv2 said: "Because of the substantial length of time the Fandom Shop site has been unavailable for ordering, the separation of the mailing list from the other Fandom Shop assets, and the inevitable difficulties in restarting the site, re-establishing fulfillment, and obtaining new supply to fill orders, it's unclear how much of Fandom's $5 to $10 million in annual sales of pop culture products will eventually accrue to the new CMI operation, and how much will be dissipated among other pop culture retailers or lost to the industry."
CMI Holdings includes TheComicStore.com, the Internet spin-off of Comics & Comix, the fourth largest comic book chain in North America In March 2000, CMI purchased Rojek's Beyond The Pale Distribution (BTP Distribution) and announced it had arranged a $2 million round of financing.
In the press release, Streicker-Fine said, "CMI Holdings provides the perfect outlet for Fandom's merchandise. We have a shared demographic to which they can provide excellent customer service through their fulfillment operations. It gives me tremendous satisfaction that Fandom's high-quality merchandise will be made available through a partner that shares our passion for the fan-based marketplace."
Ross Rojek said: "CMI Holdings has been exploring partnerships with a number of e-commerce companies, particularly those in the promotional item arena seeking to out-source their fulfillment services. Fandom's inventory is a perfect fit that helps us generate a new profit center while expanding our customer base and retail offerings."
In a possibly related development, the SPLASH has learned that the expired domain name, ANOTHERUNIVERSE.COM was renewed on the ninth of April. The on-line assets of Another Universe were originally sold by Geppi to Fandom Inc, and formed the basis for Fandom Shop.
The deal will make Rojek, if he can maintain Fandom Shop's volume, the largest customer of Diamond Comics. DEVELOPING.

CMI Holdings Group Unveils It's First World-Wide Patented 'Next Generation' Wireless Technology Product
SACRAMENTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr. 20, 2001--CMI Holdings Group Inc. (OTC-Pink Sheets: CMIH) is pleased to unveil the first of their wireless technology products, Sonic2ners. This item, which is now beginning production, is the next generation Walkman or the Walkman of the 21st Century. By utilizing bone conductance technology, Sonic2ners is a worldwide patented, self-contained FM Headphone unit that produces concert like sound with the unique and revolutionary benefit that it does not cover or rest on the ears. Users get to listen to their favorite music without the hassle of wires and without being excluded from sounds of the outside world.
Traditional headphones block out virtually all sound but the music. That makes them very dangerous. Numerous individuals are killed yearly because they were unaware of a vehicle's approach. Because of this danger, it is illegal in many states to jog, cycle or skate on a road with covered ears. Sonic2ners unique patented design allows the wearer of the Sonic2ners to hear all ambient sound, and at the same time achieve musical nirvana. He or she can also have a normal conversation while utilizing the Sonic2ners, and they weigh one fifth of the current generation self-contained Sony and Panasonic type headphones.
The second element of the technology is a Wireless Tuner transmitter. The Sonic2ner Headset can be combined with a one-ounce tunable wireless transmitter that plugs into a disc, mp3, or a tape player and takes up virtually no additional space. It includes digital scan tuning with phase lock loop technology which enables the 2ner to aggressively search for stations and lock on with virtually no drift, thus no static from an out of tune station. Our technology searches for and locks on to the next station available and automatically adjusts for best reception. The overall consequence is that our 2ners receive more stations more clearly. The Sonic2ner has bass boost of 25dB over the difficult to reproduce range of frequencies from 20 to 200 hertz. Its unique acoustic port technology enhances mid range and treble notes.
``As American society became more mobile, so too the personal portable stereo has grown in popularity. Sales of Sony Walkman personal stereos topped 100 million units last year, in the US alone.'' stated CEO Ross Rojek, ``We believe CMI Holdings and 21st Century Wireless Inc., have a very hot cutting-edge wireless product, along with the distribution channels and marketing sense to successfully penetrate this huge market.''
CMI Holdings Group, through its BTP Distribution Division had hired Sarah Rosenberg to develop sales into specialty and consumer electronic stores. Announcements are forthcoming. At this time, BTP fulfills for Vstore (hosting over 125,000 web sites), Amazon.com, Borders, Barnes & Noble, a multitude of web companies, several hundred bricks and mortar customers, and libraries around the country.
