We are all aware of this domain name and the sale on ebay. I don't think there is any interest there. We have a very well known brand. Changing our domain name and brand at this point doesn't sound like a good idea. Our 19 letter domain name doesn't seem to have slowed us down a bit. Once you've been to our site you never forget the name.

Besides your asking price is way too high. From reading this thread it sounds like I'm not the only one that thinks this.

No one would have suggested ConsumptionJunction as a potential acquirer unless it was doing well.

MiningCo did well with its original name. But read about their re-branding as ABOUT.COM, it's an interesting case of how they became phenomenally GREAT.

AHundredMonkeys and Master-McNeil and Lexicon will charge you $70,000-100,000+ for a new brand WITHOUT a domain name included --unless the name is unregistered, of course.

One of my ventures is NamingSystems and we advise companies about these issues.
