I'm thinking about selling off some of my non-english geo's.

Anyone care to estimate what this one would sell for in auction?

I'd suggest to avoid spanish names with accents, even more those with ñ. I love my ñ, but it sucks when it comes to reg domains, you always end up registering something that is both ugly and wrong.

Gran Bretaña is right and sounds right, Gran Bretana looks bad and sounds bad. The IDN might be right, but IDNs are browser-translated into punycode, which sucks by itself...

Get rid of it.

Obviously the "n" is an area of concern but IDN's STILL havnt caught on and latin speakers around the world have had to use the ascii "n" since the web began.

I've had it for 8 years, gets good traffic, had many offers. I'm not planning on *dumping* it any time soon, just realizing that my personal interests don't include trying to develop a spanish language whatever (travelsite/portal/blog/web2.0,etc) about Great Britain. Better name for someone else to use.

I'm surprised there hasn't been more comment. I'd really like to hear from some native speakers and get their opinions of value. Maybe I should post on some spanlang domain forums. Anyone know of any good ones?
