How many times have you gone to a burger joint and can't find the price, ask "How much for a #2?" and the cashier says "make an offer" ? It's never happened to me.

Why is it that when people are selling domains/sites/etc the say make an offer. I really don't like trying to guess what your site/domain is worth just so you can make a few extra bucks in case I offer something higher than what you were expecting.

Make a fucking starting point for bidding. It's not that hard. If it's actually worth more than 2 shits and a giggle people will bid the price up.

I like it when people say "OBO" because they're making a starting point. Why would I bid on something when you don't even value it enough to state what it's worth to you
