Cause of death: the autopsy

The leading service has already worked with about 7,500 of roughly 17,000 US dealers, so the pool left is limited.

The numbers

None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.

Could rise again if

The report left no way back.
