Candy.com opens its doors

TechCrunch notes Candy.com, a web site owned by a Weymouth-based company which bought the super-literal domain for $3 million earlier this month, is open for business:

According to the website, Candy.com even ships internationally but I think they just left out the word ‘not’ by accident (seriously).

The new owner of the candy.com domain name is G&J Holdings, a Weymouth, Massachusetts-based Internet candy retailer that has been in business since 2005. The $3 million question for them: how quickly, if at all, will they make up for the price it paid for the admittedly attractive .com domain name?
