Just got F1R.com on Christmas of all days. I'm very excited about this domaion.

Formula 1 Racing

McClaren F1r

Even F1R.com is used in a myriad of "how to buy internet domains" posted around the Internet.

Sure, 3 characters but WOW!!! What 3 characters!!!

I'm jazzed, obviously. And as a huge fan of the Multi-Billion Dollar F1Racing industry, I think it's a winner.

What are your thoughts?

wow...one of the best 3 char .com's I have seen in a LONG time...hell of a name dude..if you play your cards right you might seriously be able to land a big ticket sale on this one, I would expect no less than a few grand for it considering it is so meaningful and short.

You could have a 10k-20k name (maybe more) on your hands to the big guys in the F1 industry. :eek:k:

Great name, although Formula One Racing is usually just referred to as F1 and not F1R...especially in Europe..and the FIA owns F1.com as well as formula1.com and they are very aggressive in protecting their trademark..so I think it will be difficult to use it iin connection with formula1 ..but I still think its a 1-3K domain

it's a good domain, but obviously you cant sell it to FIA since they might want it for free :)

As a fan site or forum and not a competitor it would be completely legal and within his rights to use the domain related to F1 racing...

Does that affect the price? ;)

LOL... seriously, It was a dropped name. Expired. It's funny but I found the guy on another forum that lost it. He's NOT happy about it.

Christmas euphoria seems to have gripped the appraisals - it's an OK 3 character that does not mean formula 1 racing- only if heavily developed.

f1racing, formula1racing etc -yes, then the tm problem arises.

Great potential my friend, there are so many F1 fans out there, there will be a lot of possible buyers.

As good as p2p and mp3 imo. Low xx.xxx to an end user.

dont feel bad for people that let names expire..they give you a LONG time to renew them, and even after that there is redemption period

LOL... I don't think that would be appropriate, but his poste went something like this:

----
Sorry to say guys, Email isn't going to worlk anymore. I didn't update my credit card information and the domain expired and they wanted a mint to restore it. I didn't have the money and it's gone. Some DAM web squatter has probably got it now and we'll never get it back. Scum of the earth. These guys are ruining the Internet... blah, blah blah...
----

paraphrased of course, but you get the general idea.

The domain was apparently used for a forum or some kinds of "club" where everyond got an email with this domain.

The strange thing is that the WayBack Machine doesn't show anything. Do php/Forums NOT cache?

Anyway, lots of hostility out there. I didn't realize "squatting" was such a dirty job.
