Item 5.02                      Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

On June 6, 2007 the Board of Directors of Overstock.com, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Mr. Joseph J. Tabacco to the Company’s Board of Directors.  Mr. Tabacco has also been appointed to serve on the Audit and Compensation Committees.

Mr. Tabacco is the managing partner of the San Francisco office of the law firm of Berman DeValerio Pease Tabacco Burt & Pucillo.  Neither Mr. Tabacco nor his law firm have ever provided any services for or been compensated by the Company.

As a director, Mr. Tabacco will be paid a quarterly fee of $5,000, and with other members of the Board of Directors will likely receive periodic grants of stock options under the Company’s 2005 Equity Incentive Plan.  The Company also has entered into or intends to enter into an indemnification agreement in customary form with Mr. Tabacco, as it has done with each of its other directors.
