Of course there is a risk that the value will diminish....happens to real property....stocks...commodities...etc. That said, no one knows for sure when the market will peak. If you need the bread sell it for $250k, if not hang onto it. Either way, you're sitting pretty!! good luck

Its very hard to get a 2 char .com.
So you could definitely expect $200K

if I was you, I would have put it for auction at the next TRAFFIC event and easily you would make more than 100K.

The risk of price declination is possible at anytime.

I would worry about the risk of falling prices, with all these new .whatevers coming out all the time.

Sweet, domain!

100k to 250k

Humm...
I thought exact opposite.
As more and more odd extensions come, try it for few years, realize it's not as good as .com...

But VB.com sold for $130K at the same auction.

i.e. anything is possible :pout:

Because VB.com is well known in programming world as short for Visual Basic.

Potentially worth -$WhatYouPaid

Biggest risk with 2 letter domains is their ownership history...

From all indications, YB.com did NOT drop, and furthermore was, and still is, registered at Network Solutions...

So why would the bank sell it? ... perhaps it's all on the up and up - ie. they went of business, changed names, no longer needed it, etc.

With all that said, IF the domain ownership is clear, then I'd say low to mid 6-figures would be reasonable ... think brands like "Yellow Book", etc.
