they are certainly not poor on a per capita basis...but since only a few people are making money on gold and diamonds.., and since its one of the smallest countries by population, mathematically the numbers look great..if you can get one of the rich guys to buy the name you are all set.

Sudan.com was sold for 210K$ in Rick's board

**Seraphim** · 10-01-2007, 05:29 PM

Excellent name Simon! I agree with the price appraisal range thus far . Don't sell for less than six figures. Just imagine where geo .com prices will be in 10 years. Best of luck.

Excellent name Simon
I would say $90 - $140k

If you hang on for a lot more you could well get it too, depending on who the buyer is.

re: iraq.com... thought it was 600k euros not $ the bidding went to?
