Diapers.com Founder Could Raise $50m or More for New Jet.com Startup
- loceng 12y agoAnyone know what that domain cost? More than one pretty penny - though worth penny if execution is done well, which it seems is likely with the founders' history.
- bhartzer 12y agoI suspect that jet.com was sold for 7 figures but the price, at least for now, is confidential as I understand. It may come out at some point, though.

That whole process sounds pretty toxic. This is happening while they're trying to negotiate a deal? If I were them I would have walked, but I gather they really wanted to sell the company and move on to something else.
