If the revenue was known then we could speculate whether it was a fair price
Without that piece of information - only the seller can know whether he got a fair price
I will have to assume that the FMV is reflected in this sale, buyer is reasonable, seller is reasonable, hence this price is reasonable, otherwise the price wouldnt be what it is
There is written NETWORTH $5M not turnover...Although they do seem to have a $5M yearly turnaround according to this

Although when DomainTools was whois.sc it often was referred to as "source"

If Trafficz buys domaintools they can kiss their parking business goodbye.
Nobody I know would park with them with all the private data domaintools divulges to lawyers and TM owners.
Why would anyone pay for just data, to be sure Jay will keep a copy of everything and simply start again once his non compete is over.
Trafficz seems desperate to try to catch up with Domainsponsor, Hitfarm and the other companies with rapid expansion, but buying a business that will make their base parking business extinct is plain stupid.
I once thought I was wrong...
But I was mistaken.

I think that's an apples/oranges comparison. The US Gov has sovereignty to packet sniff. Remember Carnivore - DCS1000? This technology first appeared over a decade ago.
Today, I envision US Gov supercomputers that analyze & decrypt in real time every inbound/outbound packet sent from any computer to a FCC-licensed ISP.

I get the too, sometimes they are alarming as it makes you think your domains have been stolen. They also add every name you register on that particular email address.

A sale for millions would probably crash at the due diligence phase if the lawyers and accountants acting for the purchaser do their job properly. Repackaging and selling 'whois' data is blatant copyright infringement. I'm surprised Nominet's lawyers haven't been in touch with them before now.
Do you know anyone that would be happy for you to 'scrape' or steal their proprietary data and sell it on?
I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole.
NameNewsletter.com - free lists of available domain names
ZoneFiles.net (beta) - ccTLD and gTLD droplists
Kate, my 'scrape' comment was really an analogy, but they are building their huge database by storing the results of 'our' type-in queries and then offering the cumulative data for resale. If that contains .uk domain information, in my opinion they are breaking copyright law.
Why do you think they are breaking copy right law? Isn't it public information much like you can go to hcad.org and see what property I own, my taxes, etc? Anybody can access hcad.org and simply put a name in to see what they own.
Why would it be any different for domains?
