I had a great idea.. If gfy bought the city , then renamed it GOFUCKYOURSELF , they could auction off plots to gfy trolls.

Great publicity too.

Pimp the whole city with highspeed wireless, bring in offshore slaves and such.

Offer a whole community of internet minded folks..

I'm suprised google hasn't done it yet..

i like your idea :thumbsup

theres got to be 200 webmasters on gfy with 10k ? thats more than enough..

Hmmmmm.... If I bought it, I wonder if I could declare it a sovereign nation?


:1orglaugh

I'm surprised Golden Palace hasn't stepped up yet. They love this kind of stuff.
WG

in humboldt county no less...

Petoria.. I mean, Edgeoria.

sweet done deal someone set this up.. big sponsor should finance this, they could make a wicked webmasters community

Yep, especially since most porn laws (obscenity statutes) are governed by the "community standards" of it's location :Graucho

Here is another one but it is in the middle of nowhere.

Monse, WA

why not buy land and start fresh? who cares about buying a city thats falling apart

a few cities have been sold. whats new about it?

:pimp :GFYBand

Galts Gulch....for porners I love it....Im in for 10K

Judging by the picture on the link, its a town of coloured sheds.

Even a retard could find a picturesque 80 acres and pop some painted sheds on for less than $1.75 mil.

My first thoughts exactly...

that doesnt make it a city :) that makes it 80 acres with some sheds..

Fair enough, apart from the official title, you've got pretty much the same thing with a few fields and sheds.

I guess it depends on how much you want to be the official goverment recognised owner of the most picturesque field of colored sheds in the land for nearly 2 mil.

hahaha8226; Eighty three acres of riverfront real estate which can be developed or sold separately
hahaha8226; Seven houses currently used as rentals
hahaha8226; One main house which sits on 1.6 hilltop acres with spectacular views
hahaha8226; Machine Shop (vacant)
hahaha8226; Cafe (vacant)
hahaha8226; Functioning Post Office which has been in operation for 136 years

The value of the parcels individually may very well be worth more than the whole. Or you could recreate your own working town complete with revenue in place of approximately $5,350 per month from the occupied rental houses and the post office and the potential for over $7,000/month in rental income with the existing buildings that are there. If you build more buildings the potential for income is much greater.



The zoning for all nine parcels is hahaha8220;Unclassifiedhahaha8221; which opens the possibility to do practically anything you wish with this property. The General Plan land use designation is Community Commercial Zone which is broadly interpreted to include most rural commercial uses including commercial recreation activities. Permitted uses include: stores, light commercial, antique shops, galleries, markets, restaurants, warehouses, hotels, motels, manufactured home parks, social halls, clubs, professional and business offices and residential development.
