Opinions are EASY to part with.

Your money is much harder to part with.

Parting with your money in a consistent manner (with your opinions), provides legitimacy to your opinions.
Oh boo hoo. I won't be listing my domains and I do not have any huge ones if that is what you are trying to accomplish. Regardless of what you think I'm not some idiot just spouting off about every big domain that is posted here. DHB posted 2 this month, californiacoeds.com and milflovers.com I think. One I think is worth shit and the other I could see him getting his asking price. I think you know he's full of shit on one.

And in your thread, the only domains I said you were being nuts on are the low end ones, $500 I think. Does that mean you won't get $500 for some / all of them? Nope, sure doesn't. I didn't say a negative word about your 5 figure domains because in my OPINION they aren't listed at a retarded price.

But if you must know, my problem with domain people is the fact that they get so pissy when someone thinks their domain is worth well under what they want to hear. Anybody with sense here understands that if you find the PERFECT buyer you can sell some stupid shit for big dollars. However, you normally don't find that chump by spamming your names anywhere, they come to you.

DHB for example owns 20,000 "brandable" names by his definition. Of course he's found some people to pay big dollars over the years because he covers a huge market. He can't guess which name will sell for 50k or more right now because he might die with 19,500 of them. He will have made a shitpile of money on the 500 he did sell but that does not matter. Just because there is one person that might pay 50k for a name somewhere in the entire fucking world does not mean it's worth 50k. Hell you might find a billionaire that wants fuckmeintheass.com and will gladly pay 200k because it's the only one and YOU have it. Even after he's paid 200k the domain is worth no more than it was the day before.
