fleaBay's Half.com Teams with buy.com

This news was just released. Thought ppl. might be interested.

"Half.com, an (flea)bay company (Nasdaq: (fleabay) - news), and buy.com (Nasdaq: BUYX - news), today announced a strategic alliance whereby every CD, DVD, and VHS listing from Half.com will be available for sale on the buy.com site through the first-ever co-branded ``Entertainment Market."

Could be interesting for everyone if they let us use coupons. While not technically a HOT deal, it does offer some options for the future to be on the lookout for.

This is not a hot deal. Please post your comments in the appropriate moderator sponsored thread:

~~~~ IWANNA ~~~~ to ask for hot deals on the items you want.
~~~~ How Do I ~~~~ to ask how to price match, etc.
~~~~ Brag & Moan ~~~~ to rave about your great experience or complain about how badly you were treated.

Thank you,

although I didn't see too many great deals from Half.com, this alliance does sound interesting

 

[convex]

it might have repercussions to the hot deals forum, nice post...might get interesting soon

ARGH...

I thought I was clear when I stated that it was not a HOT deal, however WILL BE in the near future. Especially for those that want to build up their DVD library and such. The way I see it is the combo of the buy.com's website and offerings with the cheap (discounted) prices at half.com.

Woul dyou care to elaborate?

I just want everyone to know of the possible serious repercussions of this merger.

For example, buy.com might start honoring the $5 off $100 half.com coupon.
