Hi guys,

I have one pop quiz question:
What are the major e-commerce businesses that came up after Amazon.com in 1994 and before iTunes in 2003? There must be something but I can't recall.

Any idea will be much appreciated.

Cheers!

Sure,

termitesdiy.com

I have done business with them, extremely fast shipping + excellent customer service.

The products pretty much arrived the next day and they worked!

I can't think of any major ecommerce sites that have made an impact on the level that eBay and iTunes have.

But on a smaller scale, there's Zappos as mentioned, and Threadless.

termitesdiy.com is very nice but the price doesn't seems cheaper than those sell in retail store...

p/s Paypal really helps a lot after it supports MYR payment.

@Pin - Yup, and they keep on renewing it...I made an offer few years back...and they have no plan to sell it at all @@...

Anyway, GoEatOut is dedicated for Malaysian only. No planning to do it internationally unless somebody pump me few millions to do it.

@Mukmin - termite killer? if not mistaken, I once saw in one shop in mid valley selling gardening tools etc is selling drugs for killing termite...you may need to call mid valley to see if they can check it for you...

I know about those ones, and have some, they take too much work and doesn't work as effective. TermitesDIY use a technology called baiting system, you just put water in the box and stick it to the wall where the termites tunnels are. The termites will then eat the poisonous bait and bring it back for the rest of the colony to feed on.

Hm..
