1. We note your response to prior comment 2. We see that your drop shipment sales are shipped directly from the third party vendor to the customer. It appears that you recognize revenue on a gross basis for these sales. However, it appears that you do not take title to the inventory or make any modifications to the product. Please tell us whether you recognize revenue on a gross or net basis for these sales and quantify the amount of revenue recognized for each of the last three years. If you have concluded that revenue should be recognized on a gross basis for drop shipment sales, support your conclusion with an analysis of the criteria discussed in EITF 99- 19.

As appropriate, please respond to this comment within 10 business days or tell us when you will provide us with a response. Please furnish a cover letter with your response that keys your response to our comment and provide any requested supplemental information. Detailed cover letters greatly facilitate our review. Please file your cover letter on EDGAR. Please understand that we may have additional comments after reviewing your amendment and responses to our comment.

You may contact Praveen Kartholy, Staff Accountant, at (202) 824-5465, or me at (202) 824-5387 if you have questions regarding these comments. In this regard, do not hesitate to contact Michele Gohlke, Branch Chief, at (202) 942-7903.
