                                                           November 4, 1999

Dear Fellow Egghead.com Shareholder:

I am writing to personally ask you to take a brief moment to vote your
Egghead.com shares. Even if you recently sold some or all of your Egghead
shares, you are considered the holder of record and therefore we are asking for
your help in voting "FOR" the merger.  Our Special Shareholder's Meeting has
been adjourned to Friday, November 19, 1999 to give you and your fellow
shareholders more time to cast your votes to approve our proposed transaction
with Onsale, Inc., merging two leading Internet retailers of computers and
related products. The combined company will be called Egghead.com, Inc.

Please don't underestimate the importance of your vote. There are nearly 25,000
shareholders who--like you--have not yet voted and own at least 100 Egghead
shares. Failure to vote is the same as a vote against the merger.

Quick and easy telephone and Internet voting instructions are enclosed.

          24 hours a day

We urge you to join the many thousands of Egghead shareholders who have already
voted. Owners of a majority of Egghead's outstanding common stock have voted
"FOR" the merger with Onsale--representing in excess of 97% of the shares voted
to date. Additional votes are nevertheless needed to achieve the 66 2/3%
supermajority vote requirement.

I urge you to take this opportunity to vote "FOR" this important transaction to
combine Onsale and Egghead! You can save Egghead.com considerable future expense
associated with additional mailings or a further adjournment of our shareholder
meeting.

Please vote by Telephone or Internet Today!  Remember - every share and every
vote counts! You may also sign, date and mail your duplicate proxy card in the
