- tim333 9y agoI presume they were selling a $10 service for $5 and ran out of VC money.
- tribby 9y agopossible, though I don't think that was it. their prices were more than 2x the cost of the low end of wash-and-fold services, maybe a little below the high end. their infrastructure shouldn't have cost much. maybe they hired too many people too quickly. my own guess is that growth stagnated.
