Funny...this name was put up for appraisal at NP. It was making around 3k a month, so thats why the super high sale perhaps.

It is a very common abbreviation for DO IT YOURSELF which has grown into an industry within itself.

Good sale.

why people go to this domain?

Could be many reasons...like their being a DIY Network television channel.

.net sucks

 

[Ian]

It is not traffic coming out of the blue! I think the traffic is coming from DIY Network (www.doityourself.net)
Congrats on the sale

 

[PeterBrown]

The owner said at namepros:

"the traffic is almost type_in, some come from diy.com ; some from diynet.com"

Not a bad deal.

Like Focus I think that .net is not a good investment.

Lol, great sale, well deserved.

I think its worth every penny.

Have a gem in .net - only one though but still good.

So much to the naysayers of .net
It's the most mature TLD after .com and will continue to increase in value.
I have 6 $xx,xxx .net sales under my belt; waiting for the big one

 

[TurNIC.com]

It is not worth that imo. Not a good investment at all for $200K.

NEWSFLASH:

Global economics and commerce does not solely evolve around .com.

Only domainers do.

This is a hell of a sale. If the dot com owner wanted 1 mil or more, then take a hike. This is already branded and entrenched in the do-it-yourself market for home improvements, auto care, and anything else. Will that be the final destination of this? Who knows. That is where I see it going.

That is what makes this a hell of a sale and deal.

So now I am hearing 200K for a .net and 200K for a .mobi are a waste of money and not worth it.

peanutgallery.com is being sold on this forum by a member. Perhaps he should donate it to become a sub-domain of DNF.com.

 

[QuantumBeam]

nice domain indeed

great sale and great buy. this is worth every bit of $200k.
