We are receiving some offers on this. I am curious about the experts thoughts on value. Thanks in advance!

Without traffic, I would say at least high x,xxx low xx,xxx to an end user, possibly even more. Many heart surgeons make a ton of money and this is a great vanity domain.

 

[Onward]

I would say 10K-15K enduser.

May be able to get a 5-10 times that in a vanity sale...try advertising in specific medical journal...

Due to the high price for such procedure and the fact that heart surgeons are almost always in demand, I would say in the range of 50k-100k. Good chance it could go even higher.

eyesurgeon sold at traffic for $14,500 and it has a higher ovt and more G results so I'm estimating 10K-15K wholesale and ??,??? to an enduser. Though most heart surgeons would be happy with nameoftheirpractice.com

 

[domainah]

I actually think its more around low to mid $$$$ reseller, how much a procedure costs is not an indication of how much a domain name should be. Otherwise offshoreoilplatforms.com should be a million $$ domain,...Most heart surgeons do not have a private practice anyway, so I think 3-5k reseller and maybe high x.xxx would be a great sale..

 

[petrosc]

wow that is a nice name! don't let it go for less than $20K.

eyesurgeon.com was not sold to an end user that's why it went for so low. Make sure to sell it to an end user and you might even get mid $xx,xxx for it

 

[stueynet]

Thanks for the great advice. Selling to an end user is not easy. I have tried in the past and as much as a heart surgeon has the money, it is hard to make them understand the value.

 

[petrosc]

I have a strong opinion on this matter because my ambition is to become a heart surgeon, and when I do believe me I'd do anything to get my hands on that domain.

You may say, yeah but you're a domainer and you understand the value. In reply I can only say that even though a few understand the value of domain names today, it's only because of their negligence. As the years go by things will change. Because of the globalization and the ever growing internet infiltration the new generation of businesses will realize the importance of having a descriptive domain name, the significance of establishing an online identity.

While today's doctors are not a computer savvy population (in comparison to other professions) this will not be the case with the next generations.

I strongly suggest that you hold on to the domain name for 5 or more years, if you don't need the money badly, unless you get contacted by a doctor who wants to buy it and is willing to pay a respectable amount of money for i.

IMHO I think it is worth 25K-30K, as surgeons have money falling out of their wallets.:lol:

However I would suggest not to sell below 20k!

Heart surgeons have so much malpractice insurance, a lot of them are leaving private practice and joining large medical groups. It's a dicey environment to find a well-heeled doc who would rather drop cash on a domain than a golf excursion at Pebble Beach. Also, most people find heart surgeons by medical referral, or by a trip to the ER, all within a local or nearby community, so it would be best for a (rare) practice that is starting a national push. Further, heart surgeons have had a lot of trouble lately because medicated stents have flunked the six month test. I think the advice to wait until the climate changes may be a good one. Hopefully you'll get lucky in the meantime and find a doc, or med group who gets it.

Great domain, worth $20K-$30K.

 

[Dale Hubbard]

$25k - vanity - it will sell in the USA. It won't sell to a UK end user IMHO. Medicine is more commercial in the USA. Doctors in the UK don't do too much vanity as it's regarded as beneath their calling. Sell it to someone in LA with a sharp knife - or Victoria Beckham's therapist when she finds out that nobody in LA gives a sh** about her and she has a coronary.

Just an idea... maybe you can try to put an ad in some national or international Cardiology Journal .... not aware as to if it's possible or not, it's just a possibility I would consider

 

[stueynet]

Looks like a lot of you guys were close. We are at $15k with 4 hours left. Auction is accessible from HeartSurgeon.com

90K end user

90k end user. Ebay not the right place to sell such a high-quality domain... too many newbies. Domain experts are tired of eBay and use it only to get rid of the hardest-to-sell crap.

 

[stueynet]

Thanks Varlin. We didn't hit the reserve price so if anyone has any offers feel free to pm me!

The owner decided to re-list the auction on eBay. You can access it from the HS homepage.
