Monitization an all is a different story either you need typin traffic here, which i am sure is not enough to justify the projected sale price.
I have job/jobs onmobile[dot]com & had couple of offer on them but they were all in mid $xxxx, with one of the offer been from a famous job portal, so instead of being a .com if it fetches that less I logically can't expect an end buyer to pay that big amount for a .info

Please let me share with you where I agree and disagree, and we can agree to disagree....lol!!
Keep in mind the end user need may justify the purchase, especially as I already pointed out they are most likely backed by a VC if they are paying $12g's on info, or just a real dumb person possibly.
I can assure you though the .info was less then the .com ...lol! common sense write.
Maybe some of you aren't aware of what a VC is. VC = Venture Capital = bunch of old guys with excess money to though at projects that make them millions of dollars, and if they don't it is a tax write off.
I understand many of you may be naysayers just because some of the online industry is not tangible to you yet, as well as you may have tunnel vision or blinders for domain parking only. Theirs many ways to skin a cat in this industry, I can certifiably tell you the top of the food chain is not parking a domain name even if it is 30,000 domain names.

Funny, when I was reading my response back to myself before submitting this thread and decided I needed to erase most of it.
I realized to many of you their are many aspects of online business that are still unknown factors, so even if I explained it you may not be able to understand the hows and whys and it would take this thread in a total different discussion and stray away from the subject. As well as most of this info I deleted are trade secret's that would of inevitably cut my own throat by sharing these secret's not realizing what I was writing as I was doing it.

I wish not to impugn you, please understand and I would be willing to share my thought offline just to you only. If your in the USA we could even do it over the phone and you can get your questions out. I'd even call you on my dime, so please don't take offense.
Sometimes written translation is easily misunderstood versus spoken. <-- This actually goes for all of you in this thread. I am not judging or putting anyone down, there's just things being over looked.

I will sign out by saying I personally would never spend $12,000 on this .info unless I had a good business plan to back it up, Im not talking about parking either, but offering a product or service if I was being backed by a VC for help branding.
I am just trying to help you guys understand that this amount is not far fetched, and or doesn't have to be a scheme to bump up the market value of a .info. Things dont always have to be a conspiracy. I personally see validity to this being sold for $12,000

This is no traded secret and you should already know this, but if you don't there is an ALARMING amount of people with out jobs in America. Helping people find jobs is a very lucrative market currently.
I also have done my fare share of research on this subject since being asked to join the team that is developing http://employeetube.com 3 months ago, You will see some new technology for the next generation of online resume's and online job interviewing, There's two other companies racing with us to see who gets it released first and who's technology is better, I guess only time will tell wish us luck
