For Sale This domain Dump.ca need a little advice.

Recently had a $700 offer on DUMP.ca but I declined, however, I am curious what you guys would value it at. I may even have sold it for $1000 reluctantly. Opinions anyone?

People who run dumps do not like to call them that, so it have been your chance when they wanted to take a dump domain.

Interesting point MSN but, is it not still the best generic there is for what it is, a dump by any other name is still a DUMP.

$5000/ its great branding for a trash pick-up or disposal company.
Pay the $100 or so dollars registered it for 10 years and WAIT. I would say $5K would be a great deal for a buyer on this name.

Waste Management owns wastedisposal.ca and another company owns wastedepot.ca as examples, but none of them use the word 'dump' ever. It is something which is not to be seen and certainly never discussed publicly.

We have a customer in this business so we have some insight here.

I don't know MSN, sometimes in your face marketing really works.

Not sure about the .ca market, but I think you made the right call to hold out for a bit more. I think you should be able to pull 2k+ out of this one.

Another option - you may want to try to lease the name to the person with the $700 offer. Tell him you will lease it to them for $700/year with a Buy out of 4k with in the first 4 years and what they already paid will count toward the buyout.

I would think that someone looking for such a domain wants to use it in connection with a different concept than a place for garbage disposal.

Hold out for more. $700 is too cheap for this name.

Could be a clever name for a startup, game, app, ...

Although, the idea appeals to me, cause I own the name, I think its inexpensive to create a clever name then to twist a generic keyword into the mold, which costs more money and I think you can get the same result, a clever name.
on another note = jstewart = beautiful closing argument on you last reply to "It is something which is not to be seen and certainly never discussed publicly. !"
Thanks for your input MSN, where you implying the likes of the present use of the .com in this quote "wants to use it in connection with a different concept than a place for garbage disposal" or the old .com site which used porn I think, and if your wondering, I went there to see what the .com had been used for years ago .lol

Maxwell, "Hold out for more. $700 is too cheap for this name. " Thanks for your support, but sometimes cash is tight, and had he offered me a $1000, I may well have bit the bullet, ouch!

To rare a name to sell for $700. Its easy to remember, there are many possible uses ie waste disposal, basement/garage clean out company, liquidation retailer, dump trailer manufacturer, whole sale bargains, just to name a few

I got my roof done last week, bins are not cheap. I think 5K is a bottom price.
