SALT LAKE CITY, September 9 /PRNewswire/ --

- Now Shipping Internationally to 34 Countries

Overstock.com, Inc. (Nasdaq: OSTK) today announced the online discount retailer has launched capabilities to service international consumers in 34 countries; including those in Canada, the United Kingdom and the European Union.

International shoppers can now search, browse and purchase over 600,000 discount products, priced in local currency, from http://www.overstock.com.

"Many international markets are underserved by online retail," said Patrick Byrne, Overstock.com chairman and CEO. "With the weakness of the dollar the time has never been better for international customers to purchase American goods, creating a great opportunity for us."

International shoppers to Overstock.com now find thousands of products from 10 major categories. The site geolocates visitors and displays pricing in their local currency, automatically adjusted to daily fluctuations in exchange rates. Overstock.com launched its international service beginning with an August 27 soft launch, and experienced no complications or setbacks.

"We wanted to make the process as seamless as possible for our international shoppers, and we're encouraged by the initial results," commented Jake Bailey, Overstock.com's director of international business. "On the first day this program was live, we received orders from 17 different countries, with zero marketing efforts," added Bailey.

Overstock.com originally announced its intentions to expand internationally in May 2008, (http://e4x.com/news_04.html) through partner E4X. Since the announcement the site has seen international traffic increase significantly.

"With the high volume of international customers visiting our site, it's time we give them an opportunity to take advantage of Overstock.com," added Byrne. "We've started with these 34 countries, but plan to expand the number of countries meaningfully over the next year."
