Half.com offers people an organized online marketplace to buy and sell high quality, previously owned goods for at least half off list price. Founded in July 1999, the company quickly designed, developed and launched its innovative Web site, put in place a strong management team and advisory board, and secured funding from a number of well-respected venture capital firms and individual investors.

Half.com offers people a fixed-price, online marketplace to buy and sell high quality, new, overstocked, remaindered and used products at discounted prices. Unlike auctions, where the selling price is based on bidding, the seller sets the price for items at Half.com at the time an item is listed. The site's expanding marketplace currently includes books, CDs, movies, video games, computers, consumer electronics, sporting goods and trading cards.

Half.com's founder and president, Joshua Kopelman, came up with the idea for Half.com when he realized there were inefficiencies between the supply and demand for used mass-market items. Half.com overcomes these inefficiencies and significantly streamlines the entire process of connecting people to buy and sell over the Internet.

Buying at Half.com is similar to the shopping experience at other leading online retailers. Shoppers can easily search for specific items or browse for items that are categorized and surrounded with product descriptions, reviews and artwork. Sellers easily list items for sale by typing in a UPC code, ISBN, or model number, selecting the item's condition and setting the sale price. There are no fees to list items on Half.com and sellers are charged a commission on each sale only after an item sells.

Winner of the Codie Award for Best e-Commerce Web Site Innovation, Half.com is one of the most visited shopping sites on the Internet and through its ever-growing community of sellers, offers more than fifteen million items for sale. Half.com's phenomenal growth drew the attention of eBay, the world's largest personal online trading community, who acquired Half.com in July 2000.

Half.com made national and international news when it launched its site in January 2000, by collaborating with Halfway, a small town in Oregon, who changed its name to Half.com, Oregon, becoming the first "dot com" city in America.

PC Data ranked Half.com the third most-visited shopping site in December, behind eBay and Amazon. According to PC Data one out of every eight shoppers visited the site. NPD Group ranked it No. 10 on the list of sites at which consumers spent the most holiday money.
