This is a valuable domain name
aisofficer said:This is a valuable domain name. I was suggested to sell it for $5000 minimum but I think $1000 would be a good starting price. I didn't expect people to be "playing games". So if you want to make a legitimate offer then post. Othewise, proceed to another thread...
Minimum bid $1000
DigitalChanges-The member set a minimum offer of $ 1,000 and it does not matter about traffic for the "value"

Minimum bid $1000
Sedo and seeing that someone wants $1,500 for something like 'antiqueradiostation1.net', etc. There also needs to be the perception, at least, that there may be a bargain available. As an example, I sold 'BillCollections.COM' here for $35 and then saw it on ebay with a $100,000 opening bid! I sort of doubt that anyone actually bid on that domain name. If it had had a reserve of $50, who knows, it may have ended up selling for $83 and actually made the seller a good profit.MovieDomains said:

Does this mean that it sold for 35 bux, as you showed us that post
Holy Cow , Maybe I am not reading this right?
or am I?

FWIW, a 30x markup on domains is not completely uncommon -- it's called profit, and while hard to come by, it's a fact of life. Rare finds have been known to be bought and sold on this board for similar amounts. I myself was on the losing end of one of these markups, and I never look back -- I sold a domain on this board for $20 back in December, at is was immediately resold on this same board for about ~$700 (I can't remember the exact amount). This happens. Get over it. And stop crapping in other peoples' sales threads. I'm so sick of this I'm ready to start my own sales site just to give domainers a place to sell their inventory without having to put up with this lunacy.
Don't be so defensive, Sarah. Those questions are fine. But that's not all that's going on in this thread. Bringing to light how much the domain sold for previously ("Does this mean that it sold for 35 bux"), making sarcastic statements ("rare treasure indeed"), criticizing the domain ("Well the term is "debt" collection not bill collections .."), and intentionally devaluing domains ("Proven by the extremely low overture scores for the term .. And google is showing very low results for this term at about 4000") is simply considered bad form in a sales thread. If they wanted the domain appraised, they would post in the appraisals section. This is a sales forum -- designed for offers, questions, and the conducting of business.Sarah said:Well that's all nice and dandy .. But one has to realize buyers have EVERY right to ask questions to a seller such as- "how much traffic is a name receiving" .. or income the name receives??..
For crying out loud if I am going to spend $1k+ of my hard earned money I want to know what I am getting !
It works both ways buddy.
