Do you own it or are you buying it?

Well, I am sure it ìs worth well over $10k at least. Most likely a hell of a lot more than $10k.

they want high 5 figures which I translate to $90K plus.

Looks like it gets some nice typeins. Would like to see their revenue stats from the various sponsors they use. My guess is the make a modest sum each year and would only sell the name for a multiple of that... probably 5+ years of the total income per anum.

Without knowing the numbers, but guessing based on Ovt and name quality I'd say mid $X,XXX to high $X,XXX. It's a very nice name indeed.

Way too high, IMHO.

from what I can tell they make no money from it. www.mingle.com. See for yourself. The links don't go anywhere really.

I bet they will eventually get their price if they hold out another year or so.

that is my opinion too. Maybe DomBuyer can cast some light on this.

they have only owned it for a year so i think they paid too much and that is what is dictating their sales price.

oh, and by the way, I am buying dating domains. If you want to sell post it and the asking price.

Heh I didnt click the links to see if they worked, just moused over them to see that they linked to an affiliate program for minglematch.com.

Bingo. No value to speculators, but definitely could get their asking if they're patient.
