SCHEDULE 13D AMENDMENT No. 2

     This Amendment No. 2 (the "Amendment") amends and supplements the Amendment
No.1 on Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D Amendment 1") relating to the shares of
Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of b2bstores.com, Inc., a Delaware
Corporation, previously filed by the reporting person. This Amendment is being
filed in order for the reporting person to file individually, rather than with
the group which he previously filed with. The other members of the group filed
an amendment to their 13-D on March 24, 2000 in light of changing circumstances
at the Company.

     Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment does not modify any
of the information previously reported on the Schedule 13D Amendment 1.

Item 4.  Purpose of the Transaction.

     0n March 24, 2000, Enviro-Clean of America, Inc. ("Enviro-Clean"), Randall
Davis, Steven Etra, Gary Granoff and Mark Rice filed an Amendment to their 13-D
in which Enviro-Clean disclosed its intention to ask the b2bstores.com board of
directors to appoint a representative of Enviro-Clean to the b2bstores.com board
to represent the shareholders of Enviro-Clean in connection with recent
announcements by b2bstores.com. Enviro-Clean also disclosed that it would
encourage the b2bstores.com board to give full consideration to any and all
strategic alternatives that Enviro-Clean believes might be presented for the
purpose of enhancing shareholder value.

     The reporting person, Richard Kandel, Chairman of Enviro-Clean and
b2bstores.com did not participate in any discussion on the board of Enviro-Clean
as it related to its investment in b2bstores.com. Mr. Kandel's position as a
director, officer and shareholder of each Enviro-Clean and b2bstores.com could
have created or appeared to create potential conflicts of interest when faced
with decisions that could have different implications for the Enviro-Clean and
b2bstores.com. Mr. Kandel has refrained and will continue to refrain from
participating in any decision or other action as a director or officer of either
company if it presents such a conflict of interest. For that purpose, Mr. Kandel
has filed this 13-D separately from the above-mentioned group.
