Item 8.01.    Other Events
 
        On September 4, 2008, a number of defendants, including GSI Commerce, Inc. (the "Company"), agreed to establish a settlement fund of up to $7 million in a class action lawsuit filed by Jeffrey Weinstein and Lei Shen on behalf of a putative class of wireless telephone subscribers who allegedly received an unsolicited text message in 2005 from the defendants advertising a product sale. On September 11 2008, Judge Wayne R. Anderson, of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division, granted preliminary approval of the settlement. The settlement remains subject to the final approval of the court. Under the Company's errors and omissions insurance policy, which covers this claim, the Company's deductible is $1 million. Through the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2008, the Company had expensed or established reserves for approximately $900,000 of the liability relating to this lawsuit.
