Menlo Park, Calif., October 30, 2007 - AuctionDrop, Inc. (www.auctiondrop.com), a leading online retailer of authentic premium brands and luxury goods, announced today that the company has earned a coveted spot on the Silicon Valley Business Journal’s prestigious Fast 50 list. The publication ranked AuctionDrop as the third fastest-growing private company in Silicon Valley for 2007. The annual Fast 50 survey ranks privately held companies based on their revenues and percentage of growth over a three-year period from 2004 to 2006.

The company is now one of eBay’s largest retailers with merchandise volumes in the 99 percentile of all active eBay merchandisers. Additionally, the company has maintained a remarkable 99.7 percent positive consumer “feedback” rating on eBay for all transactions to date.
