At the time, the pure plays were the rage, and they were seekingand gettingbuckets of money from Wall Street by milking the promise of web sites that would capture an enormous share of retail sales. The chains responded by hastily putting up retail web sites of their own. It was partly in an attempt to convince their shareholders that they could compete in the online sweepstakes, too, and partly an effort to keep the fledgling web-only merchants from gaining control over the new retailing channel and, potentially, of retailing itself.
