Actually I wasn't directing this at you, but you can bend over and place the target on your ass if you want. It's all the same to me :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh I don't play favorites. Let that be recorded!!! :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Fine then, but I'm sure this theory should get shot down in a couple of seconds or posts

Actually there isn't any sale yet, just idiots talking war story bullshit

riiiiiiiight, i didn't see any other posts from peeps talking about the "great days" you mention, other than me.

You glanced over this?:

i quoted it, so no, i didn't glance over that. did you glance over my quoting it?

dynamo: Thanks for sharing, sounds like a great time. The prestige is the whole reason I bought this domain and wanted to get into this business to start with. Where was your store based?

lazycash: This is a good question. Originally the buyers offered a few hundred dollars, however I wasn't going to let it go for at least 12g's. (10 was as low as I would go) If I didn't have other projects on right now I would have kept it and developed the business out of it. We have been negotiating very slowly for around a year now by email.

No and personally I don't give a shit. If you're trying to say this guy should even question selling that site for 10k cause you sold some suits, you're as big a fucking idiot as the guy you're sixty nining right now.

Well obviously you guys dont think its worth as much as me and my seller do.. I'm sure that with his business he'll pull a few million from it and 10g will be a drop in the bucket. I find domain real estate fascinating because the value seems to differ so greatly from person to person.

wow, aggro.

good luck man!

No doubt he'll pull a few million, probably a few hundred million, billions maybe :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Why was that other dude asking about a (dot)net when you're selling a dot com?

You should sell it to these guys who keep telling you how much they know about the tailoring and dress me up business. They sound like they know their shit. How come they can't open their wallets with all the cash and brilliance they have?

smutnut: the people buying my .com are currently hosting their business on the .net.

Good luck with the galleries.

thank you for the compliments, however, i am no longer in the apparel bidness.

hahahaha, talk about epic ownage. :upsidedow I'm sure they're making bank on that .net domain and that $10,000 was a drop in the bucket to own the .com. Good deal. :thumbsup

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

Also I'm not sure these other two idiots are surviving without part time jobs so I was trying to help you out, but again all the power to you if you really sold that for ten, seriously, and I'd love to know the secrets into that mainstream angle.

And the lottery to you :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

If that was you, you'd put up a fucking Christmas Tree LOL!!

You really gotta slow down, I know you're just having fun trolling but you seem to not even read most of the time. He was referring to the company who operates the .net of the sold domain www.youtailor.net which already has a successful business and is most likely the party that is buying the .com from him. Initially I felt as you did that the domain was being sold for far more than it was worth, but after looking at the business being run on the .net of the domain I realize how valuable the .com probably is to them.

:1orglaugh That makes a little more sense :1orglaugh

But I'm not even thinking about slowing down :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

And don't even try and tell me those other morons had a clue about that!

we sold for udvd/youdvd for 15k --- you/u names are great -- nice sale

Truth be told, I didn't realize that it was the guys who owned the .net until shortly after i made this thread, but I cant really say i'm surprised. I just wanted to be sure i wasn't selling it for too little, it never really crossed my mind that the site could be worth less than that.

If you want my advice I think you need to do what your good at and find ways to flog it for all you can. Identifying new ideas and products is something i suppose i'd like to think i'm good at compared to doing lots of programming or site building, this is also why i own a lot of domains and very few of them have had the time or money thrown at them..:1orglaugh

i know you are just being a prick but your comments reveal more about you than any of us.

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

yeah 10k is really nothing to high end design. With the software that is out these days, custom clothing has gotten really easy and is perfect to sell online. It is a fast growing industry.

you could probably get double that if you want to play ball, although it depends on what it is worth to you to possibly lose the first offer. 10k almost sounds low but it is a decent chunk of change.

I was never even concerned LOL :1orglaugh Someone else was concerned with mine, not you and not the guy who started this thread but I'm just saying...

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.

Um, read the thread title. He just sold the domain and was merely asking if we thought he got a good price for it, why do you not think that question is relevant to him? Why are you even commenting on the "site", this is simply the sale of a domain, thats it. He never said anything about selling a site and it has no relevance to the sale at all.

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.

I am just worried about what he's going to do when he hears about the guy that paid 350K recently for a domain.. :Oh crap

Alright, I'll give this one more shot and then I'm out of this thread cause its becoming increasingly difficult to explain something so simple. Please re read the thread over slowly. 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.

I think I can handle it.

What happens when these guys don't come through with their 10k for you? Can you handle that?

Yeah, I thought you just said this. Which part am I supposed to care about and why doesn't he have his money?

Look, dude I make my money a different way and it's not by what's in my sig and it's certainly not by buying some speculation dot com hoping someone will be succesful on the dot net, but I don't do a 9 to 5 for the record and most affiliates aren't able to do that these days!

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?

Once again, you didn't read, its in the middle of completing escrow.

I know exactly where you're coming from. I don't mind being schooled when someone makes sense. I still don't think the other idiots in this thread (not everyone, but a couple) were coming from where you are coming from. Maybe I'm the moron.

So he should hold out for more than 10k you're saying?

I've been living solely off affiliate earnings for the last 11 years. So just because you don't understand domain speculation, can you at least appreciate someone who is able to turn a $10 purchase into 10k?
