A couple of days ago, a SEDO buyer sent the following comment:

You've owned the site since 1997, it averages 187 hits per month there is no reason it is worth more than an unregistered .com

:D

That's pretty good... Maybe it is an end user that is trying to get it for cheap (at least that would be the ideal situation)

You get this all the time from some people, obviously the guy shoots himself in the foot with this statement.

I had a guy demand i sell him a CCC.com for $20, because noone else would want it other than him. He kept sending email after email, i still get traffic from his related site though, LOL.

i've had a similar comment - my feelings...

if they feel they can't afford it, then don't buy it.
if they think its took expensive, they don't need it.

Perhaps that's the reason why Sedo has to screen comments. People are simply wasting time "justifying" their low offers or high prices. If you ask me, PRICES alone should do all the talking. After all, it's all about money.

Good comeback. :)

People just don't realize the value of virtual real estate.

Next time I'll try this:

"There is no reason why this mansion should be worth more than a trailer in the next town over".

I'll see how far that goes... :lol:

No way. Only a domainer would know where to look for those stats - lowballer.

It was an end-user who wanted to look like a knowledgeable person.

That is unreal. I would never have thought an enduser knew where to find those stats.

Someone emailed me the other day giving me a sad story of how he lived in upper Mongolia and wanted one of my LLLL.com's for a gift to his sister as it was his sister's name. I am not sure about someone's name, but I had to look this word up and its relevance to Mongolia.

Come to find out, the LLLL was the name of a song/lyrics by a rock band from Mongolia.

LOL was the guy even on the Internet in 1997.
Plus, he should go for unregistered names since the minimum bid at Sedo is $60... :)

I have sold a name once to an enduser who told me about Estibot.

In fact, his initial bid was $100 :lol:

I'm still partial to "please justify your existence".

I like how some people value domain names. :)

Although, to reverse it, he may be an experienced domainer. Possibly he was trying to get you for your inexperience and lowball you...
