&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Judgment on July 1, 2008:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;As the community predicted, Experian did not reveal a public offer for Pricegrabber by the end of June, 2008.  Judged at S$0.  -- The Industry Standard &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Original Prediction: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to the &lt;a href=&quot;http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/industry_sectors/support_services/article3380916.ece&quot;&gt;Sunday Times&lt;/a&gt; (more: &lt;a href=&quot;http://uk.reuters.com/article/businessNews/idUKL1769899720080217&quot;&gt;Reuters&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://biz.yahoo.com/paidcontent/080223/1_320245_id.html?.v=1&quot;&gt;paidContent&lt;/a&gt;) Experian has appointed Allen &amp;amp; Co. to find interested buyers for Pricegrabber, which Experian purchased three years ago for approximately $500 million.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As noted by The Times, &amp;quot;While revenues across Experian’s credit services fell 2% in the three months to December, underlying revenues at Pricegrabber rose 9%. The site claims to have 26m online visitors a month.&amp;quot;  So, while Pricegrabber seems healthy, it remains to be seen if Experian can sell the property at a profit. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is a prediction that Experian will receive a public offer for Pricegrabber by the end of June, 2008. &lt;/p&gt;
