From there the vision grew to include products from web-only shops, popular department stores, and speciality stores. Backed by a great purchasing technology called OneCart, all CatalogCity was missing was a new name: It came in the form of Shop.com which was picked up for a little over $3 million.

Shoppen is Dutch (and maybe German) for Shopping. @equity78 you still have the word Cloud mentioned in your post.
Another big sale (one of the greates shop - related sales ever) was this one: shopping.de / 1.96 million / 2008 / buyer was a german company
