Thumbs up Tell.com

Sold for $400,000 last week @ Sedo. A bargain or fair price? Thoughts?

Bargain or fair price? Can't we say it was extremely expensive?

It would be a little weird if a cell phone business bought Pasta.com, wouldn't it? Sure, it does seem overpriced maybe to "us". Fortunately, the end-user could care less.

Wow, that's a great sale for anyone who owns a one word LLLL.com. Still, way too much. We better be seeing a great Tell.com website in a few months.

Great name for a gossip or chat site. It is a lot of money though and it's likely only a mild type in without content being in place. Let's face it, 'YouTube' and 'Google' likely paid $9 for their names and they've done OK. With imagination and a great product that people really want lots of names will work with word of mouth and a little advertising so, yeah, it was too much.

400k sounds extreme. 200k sounds a bit less bloated

tell.com could go for 7-figures if 2 giant corp's both liked it for an upcoming product or service. seems like a fair price all around.
