exactly, there's a few saville row tailors who can command A LOT more too, like $50 grand.

i guess my point is, while i don't know the domain business, i do know any one of the uber high-end clothiers can easily drop $10 grand on a domain.

fact is, you are grasping at straws and have no idea what my income level is.

Good luck to you too. Just for the record I have around 200 other blogs, tgp's and mainstream horseshit and would love to see how to make maintstream work. I'll admit to having no clue about that. But all my bills are covered by just pushing porn and I'm not sure that's your situation.

If you're a negotiator why are you asking these people for info, cause we both know what you're shit is worth, whatever you can sell it for.

It's not like I put sites in my domain you idiots can affect and I don't know anything. I mean get real and answer what I just asked.

Why would someone with all the horseshit you're saying even ask if he should sell that site for ten grand? Especially if it's getting squeezed from the top now? I'm not saying it can't be done, but if someone can do it, why is he asking about if he should?

If you're just bragging cool, congrats, but you must know where I am coming from

I have absolutely no idea what you are rambling on about, but you seem really confused. He never asked if he should sell it, he asked for opinions if he was selling it for the right price. This isn't really that complicated and has nothing to do with being in mainstream.

Its real simple, if someone has a business/successful website on a .net and you are able to acquire the .com, you have instant leverage for a sale. Most .nets with a successful site are looking to one day acquire the .com for branding and to move their business there, whether its mainstream or adult.

I hear you. Now where does that question about him selling for the right price or not come in? I'm serious here. I know you guys seem to have this thing for speculating, but really an empty site making no money is an empty site. I understand if you had bradpit(dot)com you might have some value, but you can't even do that anymore.

Lets say I acquired smutnut.com You own the .net and .org, so the .com would have more value to you than just about anyone else. Generally I'd say smutnut.com was worth maybe $20, but since you own 2 other tlds of it then you might be willing to pay a couple hundred, get it?

Also why would you come here, ask that question and risk the sale? It seems ludicrious to me. Especially if that is the only person you could ever sell it to after that negotiation for the simple fact that they own the (dot)net. Cause I can't imagine them caring YOU owned the dot net and would start sending them extra traffic.

The thread starter just sold the domain youtailor.com. Some of us are speculating that the buyer must be the owner of youtailor.net as that domain has a nice active business on it. Most of us initially felt that youtailor.com wasn't worth 10k, but after seeing what's on youtailor.net, I can now understand why he was able to get that much for the domain.

No, i'd give you ten bucks cause I already own so many sites that doesn't mean shit to me. someone already has it and wants a thousand, but like I'm saying, I'm not a moron. In fact I'd pay more for other sites you don't even know about that would relate to my other niches and keyword preferances much better, but I know what you are driving at and I can kind of see spending some money, Okay...

You sort of convinced me in a sort of way that he maybe deserves 10k for that site.

Then obviously the smutnut.com doesn't have much value to your business. Now take a business that is spending money to brand its .net and has plans to grow and do offline print marketing, do you think the .com of their name would have value to them?

For years thehun was found at thehun.net Can you imagine if 8 years ago you were able to acquire thehun.com ? Just think of the amount of type in traffic you would have been getting back then and how much leverage you'd have selling the .com to the owner of the .net?

I wouldn't know, I wasn't privy to the domain's negotiations. I think the thread starter just realized what was on the .net and maybe if he'd known he would have held out for more. Although, he did say the negotiations have been going on for more than a year. He obviously worked hard to bring them up from a couple hundred initial offer to 10k agreed price, so I'd say he did well. Domain negotiations can be tricky, if you keep pushing them for more there can be a point where they just say "fuck it" and leave the negotiations and you are left with nothing.
