EWRX Signs Fulfillment Partnership for BigBadCatalog.com
    BELLINGHAM, Wash., Jan. 17 EWRX Internet Systems, Inc.
(OTC Bulletin Board: EWRX) today announced it has signed a strategic alliance
with Three Star Industries to provide fulfillment services for
BigBadCatalog.com.  BigBadCatalog.com is EWRX's B2B2C online parts and
accessories catalog targeting the $24 billion specialty automotive aftermarket
and slated for launch in Q2, 2001.
    Three Star Industries is a premier buying and distribution consortium
consisting of Arrow Speed Warehouse (Kansas City, Kan.), Competition
Specialities, Inc. (Auburn, Wash.), and Performance and Electronics
Distributors, Inc. (Goodlettsville, Tenn.).  With fourteen U.S. distribution
centers, Three Star has extensive fulfillment and inventory management
experience with Internet-based systems and has wholesale distribution rights
for over 200 manufacturers and approximately 350,000 automotive parts and
accessories.
    "We are focused on producing revenue and this alliance teams EWRX with an
industry-leading partner for BigBadCatalog.com," said Ron Davis, President
and CEO of EWRX.  "By choosing an experienced and well-known wholesale
distributor, we ensure that BigBadCatalog.com will reliably service automotive
enthusiasts throughout North America and beyond," Davis said.
    Specialty automotive aftermarket research indicates EWRX's targeted
audience spends about $6,000 per year on items for their cars, are active
online shoppers, and view the Net as a resource for information and ideas.
Bringing BigBadCatalog.com online to EWRX's existing 400,000-plus unique
monthly users demands experienced order fulfillment.  "That is what Three Star
brings to the table," Davis said.
