However, these guys think every single domain they own is worth $3-10k, no matter the real value.
Sorry, just had to vent! Is it only me??

There is a lot of hype surrounding domain names these days. Especially on GFY, with Taboo bumping his domain thread every day. I imagine him and a lot of other newbies think that all you need to do these days is register some shittyname.com or "word"blog.com, and instantly it is worth $500. If someone happens to inquire about it, all of a sudden they think its worth $5000.
