2 letter .com's are rare, and this is actually a word so that's even more rare.

I'd say $400K isn't bad... you'd have to ask Taboo or DomBuyer tho, they could tell you way more accurate.

Minimum 6 figures. No maximum, depends on buyer.

Offers in the $400,000+ range seem about right. Last year "ME.COM" sold for $460,000. Another nice 2 letter dot come, "MR.COM" went for just $125,000 last year.

P.S. congrats on 1K !

Sucks for him.

He has it listed on GD for $750k -
but I'd say the domain is worth about $150k-$275k.

my.com would probably be a portal.

[email protected] emails

Hosting my.com/user

And full of ton of advertising like all other portals.

Whats the traffic on that?

he bought it for 500K? Too bad for him the bubble burst right after that lol. I think I'd never pay that kind of money for my.com... needless to say it's an excellent domainname but I'd rather diversify my investments than put 500K in one domainname.

I doubt he will ever get more than 500K back for it though.

I'd think with only a moderate investment my.com could be made to be worth a lot more.

I'd use it for domain and hosting sales, I think, and offer email addresses... as suggested above. Throw in a bit of TV advertising, you'd be a household word in minutes.

You'd get much more $$$ if you spend another $500k on development.

I find this hilarious i spoke to you once. You had a thread on this board about paying someone 10% if they find a domain that you would like. So i find my.com and ask what he wants and forwarded it to you. Your reply was "i have a staff the contacts owners of domains everyday".

Why the fuck did you ask people to find good domains for you then dumb fuck?

Just another fool with alot of money.

It's worth whatever it is worth to whoever buys it with a plan in mind to turn a profit.

It's obviously a decent domain and could have loads of uses. If someone has a biz plan/spreadsheet that can justify a price - why not? If they just want to "possess it" - hell.. I got load of domains I thought I needed to "possess" :-)

I think it's worth 500-800k+ to the right bidder. It could be a huge money maker, something in the size of Yahoo. If I wanted to develop a site with personals, hosting, email, galleries, shopping, etc., and had a domain budget of a million dollars, I'd go nuts for the chance to buy 'my.com'.

about 150k right now.

problem is new extensions are being issued all the time, which depreciates the value of "coms"
