Broadway Bound!
In 2007 this whole group of dealers was acquired by the Broadway
Family and repatriated from New Jersey to Brooklyn.
Their new "corporate address" is 2931 Avenue S, Brooklyn, NY 11229 (photographed here by
Don Wiss) but they appear to operate from Broadway's 89th St. warehouses ( , , ).
Note: After joining the Broadway Family, this group's ResellerRatings.com score plummeted from a lifetime average of over 8.5 (out of 10) to a 6-month average of 1.96 (as of January 2008).

the NASDAQ chronicle
In January, 2005, the owners of this group applied to take their company public
and trade its stock on NASDAQ. The company comprises the six active dealers on
this
page, and would be listed under the name "IBUY."
In their public filing and in a story about it in Forbes Online, the company
reveals not only its size, ownership and finances but its challenges. These include
facing
much larger competitors and relying on shopping comparison sites for visibility.
We think the Forbes article is worth reading for its glimpse into the world of
web-only
marketing.
