I was looking over the weekly sales report at dn journal and one caught my eye, I have always wanted to own fishing . net :cool:

$52,500 not a bad sale at all...

Any names you have always wanted?
 
I've always wanted Doug.com :-)

Remember when the original owner was selling for $7k
 
I think Bob.com has shown up on eBay a few times for a couple million.
 
The original owner of IRAN.com lived few blocks from my apartment. I wanted to buy the domain in 2004, banks would not approve my application for a loan. Look at it now, buyer after buyer profiting from the sales.

If I had money in the bank now, I would bid and win the domain. With the right developing team and marketing team. Domain will generate $100+ Million Dollars a year
 
joseph.com
Decided to wait & register it on my birthday just to have the date set. Discovered that a week before my birthday someone registered it and still has it.

Lesson learned:
Don't freaking wait to register a domain you want when it is still available.
 
some people are lucky and have unusual names and are able to reg or acquire cheaply their .com equiv.

unfortunately mine is pretty 'premium'. recently sold for 500k i think

ho hum

Guy.com
 
I have too many I would like to own (or could have fairly easily got in the past) to list here.

Luck and timing was a huge factor in why so many great names are owned by someone other than yourself. With a few notable exceptions (i.e. DomainKing) it probably had little to do with smarts or having a crystal ball.
 
Patience is the key to owning a great domain name. A domain name registered today will be seen as brilliant 20 years from now ;)
 
I wanted Michael.com, but was always shy to ask..

Funny the coincidences...

First, Michael.com is asking $5 million so a little over reseller price lmao

monroe.com

I sold Marilyn.com a year ago :)

I've always wanted Doug.com

You had a chance last month I sold it within 2 days :)



Personally I have always wanted my home town but seing as no one replies to my 6 figure offers I suppose Ive run into a billionaire !
