*AMENDMENT NO. 11 TO*

*STATEMENT ON SCHEDULE 13D*

This Amendment No. 11 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D filed by Patrick M. Byrne, John B. Pettway, High Plains Investments LLC and Haverford Valley L.C. dated November 14, 2002, as amended to date (the “Original 13D”), relating to shares of the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”) of Overstock.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), whose principal executive offices are located at 799 W. Coliseum Way, Midvale, Utah 84047. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Original 13D.

Note: This Amendment No. 11 is being filed as a result of the pledge of certain Shares of the Issuer held by Patrick M. Byrne as described in Item 6.

Item 1. Security and Issuer
Item 2. Identity and Background
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
Item 5 of the Original 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows: As set forth herein, Dr. Byrne beneficially owns 6,489,347 Shares, which represent 25.5% of the outstanding Shares, based upon the number of Shares outstanding as of the most recent practicable date, and calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3, and excluding 63,775 shares of the Issuer’s Blockchain Voting Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred”). The Series A Preferred votes together with the Shares and with the Issuer’s Voting Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred”). Neither the Series A Preferred nor the Series B Preferred is a registered class of securities under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Dr. Byrne shares voting and dispositive power over 5,452,127 Shares with High Plains Investments LLC and Haverford Valley L.C. and shares voting and dispositive power over 119,972 Shares with the Patrick Byrne Foundation Inc. Dr. Byrne made a bona fide gift of such 119,972 Shares to the Patrick Byrne Foundation Inc. on November 24, 2014, and Dr. Byrne has no pecuniary interest in such 119,972 Shares. Dr. Byrne disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares held by High Plains Investments LLC, Haverford Valley L.C. and all other persons except to the extent of his pecuniary interest, if any, in the Shares held by any such person. Dr. Byrne has sole voting and dispositive power over 917,248 Shares. Dr. Byrne also has sole voting and dispositive power over 63,775 shares of Series A Preferred. None of the Reporting Persons had any transactions in the Issuer’s securities in the last 60 days except for Dr. Byrne’s acquisition of 63,775 shares of Series A Preferred upon his exercise in December 2016 of subscription rights in a registered offering made by the Issuer.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
Item 6 of the Original 13D is hereby supplemented as follows: Effective January 4, 2017, Dr. Byrne pledged 212,415 Shares of the Issuer to a commercial bank in connection with a loan.
