[DryHeat]

Considering a joint venture/partnership with a web-developer for this name.

One of the issues: What's the fair value of the name at the outset since that'd help determine how much effort/resources the developer has to put in before it can be considered a 50/50 deal?

Any input will be highly appreciated.

Great name. Has mucho potential! name alone, if not trade marked of course!

Guessing at least $2000

 

[alaneads]

I'm guessing at least $5

I prefer collectible and use that in my own music collectibles business. In the 20 years I have been involved with collectibles I have seen that variation used far more often that collectables - but the dictionary views both as being acceptable.

Collectible is correct. Didnt even know collectable was an alternative.

Well, may be at times it just so happens that some folks end up self-destructing their own standing so much that at some level they realize that its probably beyond repair so what the heck lets keep up with what got them there in the first place.

But then again, Alan, do you honestly feel that the name is worth 5 bucks? I guess I'm one of those naive ones who have hard time giving up on fellow humans...

I like the name and the singular.and I would value it at $250.

 

[DryHeat]

Three apprisals so far giving a specific figure amount with the average being around $750. So, is it then a reasonable amount to strike a deal with a developer who'd have to put in equivalent amount of work to become a 50% partner. Anyone else, keeping in mind that the request is not for current (re-seller) price.

The word (Collectibles) has:

Over 87K General OVT seaches
40 paid OVT listings ranging from $0.70 to $.10
Almost 7 million Google pages

The preferred spelling is most definitely "Collectibles"! Nice, targeted domain name, Heat Though many here may not wish to hear this, I'm going to make a recommendation ... that is, to be sure to secure "CollectiblesBiz.com" to complement your investment! This package has value. Good Luck.

I think the name is terrific!

$3,000 and rising as .Biz excels.

This is a terrific name with a low resale value undeveloped. Only because the resale market for domains only currently does not extend to .biz. However, this would be an easy name to develop (and create real value). I would go that route.
