Yahoo has sold its European

Yahoo has sold its European shopping comparison site, Kelkoo, to a U.K.-based venture company, Jamplat.

The price of the deal was not known, although ex-chief executive Pierre Chappaz claimed on his blog that the sale price was less than 100 million euro, or less than a quarter of the 475 million euro that Yahoo paid in 2004.

yeah ... terrible business

as matt said in the previous comment, that's just terrible business....the fact that the website and other comparison sites based on commercial partnerships is unethical...
i found one which has all products and you can be pretty sure you find the best price...it is called Twenga : http://www.twenga.co.uk

That's just terrible business! Companies need to be careful what they buy up in the first place. Apparently Yahoo did absolutely nothing with it. I've never heard of it! That kind of business probably put them in the position they are in now. At least now they can keep going a few more months?!
