(have been gone awhile, but have had a big issue with my 'basement makovever' gone sour. Enough of that, but here is my post)

As said above, been busy, but as of late I have been pestered and stalked for a domain name.

This simple one word dictionary is one I like.

But I get calls and calls from one individual, and only one responce to one email,..for a killing $200 offer.

I would field the calls, but they are on my wife's phone, and completely unnecessary considering the domain is listed at sedo.

I send an email to the person and suggest a better offer at sedo, considering the price range he is working in.

And I tell him under no uncertain terms to not call my wifes number ever again.
(I dont even know how he got it to be honest)

And shortly after the email, her phone rings once again with him on caller ID.

I mean, ....oh,...my,...god,..use sedo,..or offer me more than a rediculouse 200 bucks already.

And leave my wife alone !!

She is not one to be reconed with lol.



Point is, how can I get this clown to stop pestering.

Either accept the initial offer aint close and anty up,...or let it alone already.




Unles,... he is a domainer. :behindsofa: :twitch: :photo: :fencing:
(which by context and tactic,..I expect is true,.. and looking for the dnf culprit.)

Maybe the domain offer is just an excuse to chat with your wife? lol

I know it sounds like a joke, but I would be cautious, if I were you. Especially so if your wife is pretty lol.

I don't know the solution. Call a cop on him? Naw, that won't work.

Threaten to call is wife, just to get even? Won't work either lol.

What I'd do (sincerely), tell him straight out that you don't do business through personal phone. If he's interested, go to sedo.com.
End it there.
 
i think you can have his number blocked.
 
Trust me ,..my wife IS pretty,..and has a hellova left hook. ;)

And the number will be blocked.

That was tried,..ended up with another phone call. lol.

But it will be dealt with if it pursists further.

Pull my trigger, I will go off.
 
Change the domain to privacy, change nameservers, and say you just sold the domain.

I shouldnt have to do that if i want to sell the domain in the end, no?

Buncha-bllsht.
 
You can still sell it, change it to a different parking provider, you can move it back after 30 days.
 
I dont park. (old habits changed)

I just wanna out this clown for trying to pickup a name on cheap.

Honestly, I dont wanna out this clown, except for the fact he has tagged my home wife's phone,..and that aint cool.

Just bid, and if it aint good enough, just bid again till you quit,.. I will respond when you are in the ballpark, otherwise keep trying.

(just not the way you have been)
 
I would tell him a last time to either make an offer through Sedo or stop, and if he ever calls your wife again, you will NEVER sell the domain name to him and only sell the domain name for 100-times what the price is now. :)

Maybe then he will understand.
 
Well one lasst estibot reply,... made an offer based on such.

And lied about talking with my wife.

Told him no sale, leave me alone.

Gqads will the reply never end. Will block on next reoly,

Told me he wanted to cover my expenses and losses. Whatta joke.

L8r dude.

Added,.... thisz is not a domainer be,.... but a lesser doainer wanna be. Time to wake up and smell the roses.
 
Why not talk with him and negotiate a sale outside of sedo...and keep the - what - 20%

Normally would make sense,... but the drama this brings to me isnt worth it.
I will not deal with him. I would rather just keep it than worry about paying a 50 dollar commission to Sedo.

(I see by my last post it is time to replace the wireless keyboad batteries again lol)
 
(Point is, how can I get this clown to stop pestering.

Easy - tell him to stop calling you. Document when you told him to stop calling you (and somehow show a phone log or your phone bill if it shows incoming #'s) and if he continues to call you that is considered harassment.
 
Post his phone number on an ebay auction with the title, "Free domains" please contact this number for further info. That should slow him down.
