                 OpenStore

                 Merchants apply online, sharing their Shopify login credentials

                OpenStore reminds many analysts of another company Rabois co-founded:
                <a style="color: #d62829; text-decoration: none; -webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829;">
                 Opendoor

                 very

               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                OpenStore plans to launch a consumer-facing product to centralize the shopping experience across its merchants, which sounds a lot like… Amazon.
               </p>
               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                According to Rabois, all products are welcome, from furniture to ice cubes for soup.
               </p>
               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                Time will tell if OpenStore will succeed in its own right, but at the very least, it should give the serial VC a chance to cash out quickly and move on to his next hypeman project.
