Lucy.com, a womens sports apparel site that had loyal and rabid customers, is the latest to close its web operation, following a similar move by Gazoontite.com last fall.

CEO Sue Levin posted a letter on the Lucy site stating that the cost of selling on the web was too high but that it hoped to have another web site in the future.
