Another Pet Store Sells Out
from the wait,-wasn't-the-internet-supposed-to-revolutionize-pet-stores? dept
So, it was only yesterday that brick-and-mortar backed Petsmart bought the Pets.com domain name. Today, we find out that the one major remaining online pet store, Petopia, sold all its assets to Petco, another brick-and-mortar pet store, with whom it had been associated for the past year and a half. I guess, despite all the hype about how pet stores were going to be revolutionized on the web, no one actually thought to check with real live customers who are happy with their brick and mortar options. It's only been a year and a half since Petopia claimed they were going to win the online pet market simply because they'd raised more money.
