1. Description of Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Company

     The Company is engaged in the retail sale of merchandise, including new,
close-out, and refurbished products, utilizing an interactive online auction.
The Company currently specializes in selling primarily brand name computers,
consumer electronics, housewares, jewelry, and sporting goods and memorabilia
over the World Wide Web to consumers and small and medium-sized businesses.

     The Company was established by Creative Computers ("Creative") in April
1997 and was incorporated in Delaware in September 1997 as a wholly-owned,
indirect subsidiary of Creative. Beginning on April 1, 1997 ("Inception"), prior
to the formation of the Company, Creative began funding certain startup and
development costs related to the Company's business. On September 19, 1997,
assets and liabilities related to the Company were recorded by the Company at
Creative's basis. The financial statements have been prepared as if the Company
operated as a stand-alone entity since Inception.

Cash Equivalents

     All highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three
months or less are considered cash equivalents.

Revenue Recognition

     The Company sells merchandise purchased from suppliers under two types of
arrangements. The Company either purchases merchandise for inventory or
purchases merchandise at the time of sale under consignment-type revenue sharing
agreements. For the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, the Company's
sales of merchandise purchased for inventory comprised approximately 88% and 93%
of product revenues, respectively, with merchandise purchase under consignment-
type revenue sharing agreements representing approximately 12% and 7% of product
revenues, respectively.

     The Company recognizes revenue for advertising placed on its Website during
the period in which the advertisement is displayed, provided that no significant
Company obligations remain at the end of the period and collection of the
resulting receivable is probable. The Company recognizes software licensing
revenue when all the criteria of American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition are met. The Company recognizes revenue from payments for
professional services as the related services are performed. The Company derives
revenue from premium and exclusive placements of vendors in their related
category on the Company's Website on a straight-line basis over the term of the
related vendor contract. Commissions and fees from the sale of equipment and
merchandise through the Company's co-branded business-to-business Websites are
recognized on the date the related auction is concluded.

Accounting for Stock Option Compensation

     The Company accounts for stock options as prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25
and includes pro forma information in the Stock options footnote, as permitted
by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation.

Stock Splits

On June 25, 1998, the Company effected a 100,000-for-1 split of its Common
Stock. On November 30, 1998, the Company effected a .7329883-for-1 reverse split
of its common stock. All common shares and per share data have been
retroactively adjusted to reflect these stock splits.

Net Loss per Share

     Basic net loss per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net
loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
reported periods. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution
that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock
were exercised. During the three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999,
options to purchase 2,900,120 and 1,423,603 common shares, respectively, were
anti-dilutive and have been excluded from the weighted average share
computation.

Basis of Presentation

    The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and, in the opinion of

adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position,
results of operations and cash flows as of March 31, 2000 and for the three
month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999. These financial statements should

thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
