I think he's got some very cool ideas. [nod]
I've seen another suggestion, I think someone was actually doing it, where the first person to buy someone (online obviously) paid ten cents, the next person paid twenty, then thirty, etc., until the item was up to its "normal" price, where it stayed. So it encouraged people to dash right out and be an early buyer, generating excitement.
But yeah, there are a lot of things you can do with anything which is bought online, with a computer controlling the pricing. It's just a matter of vendors realizing the possibilities and adding some code to their shopping systems.
