ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

     Effective January 17, 2001, Arthur Andersen, LLP ("AA"), the independent
accountant of Ebiz Enterprises, Inc., resigned and provided written notice that
the client-auditor relationship between Ebiz and AA had ceased. AA did not
specify any reason for terminating the relationship in its notice. The letter
received from AA is attached as an exhibit to this Form 8-K.

     AA issued its Report of Independent Public Accountants related to Ebiz's
financial statements for fiscal years ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. These
opinions were qualified by the assumption that Ebiz would continue as a going
concern. Management of Ebiz is unaware of any disagreements with AA related to
any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure
or auditing scope or procedure.

     Due to the relatively short period of notice from AA, the Board of
Directors has not had an opportunity to consider the resignation. Management has
had discussions with and intends to retain new independent accountants as soon
as possible.

ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS

     Exhibit Description

     16.1    Arthur Andersen, LLP letter of resignation as principal independent
             accountant dated January 17, 2001.
