I came across an interesting offer on Craigslist today to sell 144 restricted stock for Etelos Inc. (OTCBB: ETLO), representing about 10% of the 23.05 million total shares outstanding. Since the stock is thinly traded with an average volume of less than 2,000 shares per day, the seller is looking to negotiate a block trade on his own and the ask price is generous at a 69% discount of the closing price today. Below is a summary and links for the listing, followed by a summary of the company.
