Any thoughts on on this domain name?

Modista.com

Appraisal/advice/suggestions are much appreciated.

Many thanks.

Since no one has replied, I thought I'd add more info.

This domain name has been the home of a small visual search start up for the past few years. After receiving offers for acquisition from such companies as Zappos and other shopping websites, it was shut down by a rival company, due to the broken patent system (full story: http://www.k9ventures.com/blog/2011/04/27/modista/)

After Google acquired the rival company, Modista was able to set up the site again, but the founders have moved on and are interested in divesting themselves of their assets (code, domain name, patent etc.)

Anyway, I understand you still might not think it's worth anything, but thanks for reading regardless.

Great fashion brandable. No existing trademark.

Brandables are hard to properly evaluate, but I would expect a $5k minimum.

Thanks for your thoughts, Theo!

My niche is not in the fashion industry, but I have heard the term used before several times in fine places in Boston. I personally would not part with it for less then $10K but would push higher- but that's just me and those are not reseller prices I'm putting out there. The word flows well off the tongue. And as Theo said, very fashion brandable.
