HI

This is a great domain name.. and I could see a company like SeaGate or Maxtor own such a domain just to get more customers from the typin traffic they would get from the domain name, but trying to get that point across to someone in the company that has the power to spend $xx.xxx or even low $xxx.xxx is not easy to do.

Maybe see if you can hire a broker to sell the domain for you.

I would not sell for under High $xx.xxx to low $xxx.xxx

Or you could develop it and wait for the world economy to get better and then put the developed site on the market..

Thx
Tom

WOW! Congrats.

Superb name and a very good price!

Nice sale but to be fair it was a name that had the quality to reach that end user price . I'm sure in a drop auction it would of sold for $20k to $40k.

**hugegrowth** · 10-14-2009, 01:43 PM

Congrats - very nice sale.

Nice sale, congrats!

@chillking. "I'm sure in a drop auction it would of sold for $20k to $40k."

Let me know at which auction I can buy names with 800,000 exact searches for 50,000 - I will be buying each and everyone of them.

**chillking** · 10-14-2009, 01:58 PM

Dangerous.com sold for $15,188 at namejet drop auction i know names can sell for a lot more but it depends who is their on the day why what you think you would of got like $150,000 on namejet . If not what exact price you think ? . Without just saying way more thank 40k.

**valeria** · 10-14-2009, 02:05 PM

We are talking about different things here. Dangerous.com is not a commercial product category killer with 800,000 searches a month. It is just a brandable name. To be honest I would not give $15k for dangerous.com

You raise some very good points.

**chillking** · 10-14-2009, 03:01 PM

Congrats on your sale any way it is a top name.

**geodic** · 10-14-2009, 03:28 PM

Congrats on your sale! And I have learned much from this thread's responses!

**Giode** · 10-14-2009, 05:02 PM

Nice work! Rob is a good guy to work with, and well connected. I'm working with him now on something similar now.

**DomainMagnate** · 10-14-2009, 06:11 PM

Very Nice! Never heard of epik before, looks interesting. Are these all the domains listed there that they own, or broker/sell?

**Bionic** · 10-14-2009, 07:16 PM

Nice sale!

**Acro** · 10-14-2009, 09:16 PM

So who bought it, since Epik was the broker?
