4Man 03-07-2007 11:10 AM

That is a lot of money....but i'm sure that this prize is going to double!!!

Gentle_Ben 03-07-2007 11:14 AM

nobody bought it in vegas for alot less. i think some people way overvalue these domains

BlackCrayon 03-07-2007 11:19 AM

yeah, i doubt it will sell today. if it didn't sell at the internext auction, chances are it won't sell at this one.

NinjaSteve 03-07-2007 11:23 AM

9.1! Final!

maybe but isn't this more or less just domainers selling domains to other domainers? at least at internext you had a good collection of people who could use the domain as an end user. we'll see i guess.

pornguy 03-07-2007 12:05 PM

They are stupid to not sell it for a fair market price.

Fap 03-07-2007 01:14 PM

9mill seems a little low for such a good domain name

HAPPYPEEKERS 03-07-2007 01:33 PM

Wooohoo You bought it didnt you Chris??

BigBen 03-07-2007 02:27 PM

No, nobody offered enough to buy it. Chris is right on with that price but he only buys 8 figure domains.

DaddyHalbucks 03-07-2007 03:41 PM

DomBuyer 03-07-2007 04:32 PM

you also thought eatmyshorts.com was worth 100k

tranza 03-07-2007 05:18 PM

Seems like a lot of money for such a domain.

:2 cents:

makefuckingmoney 03-07-2007 08:33 PM

i have full video of the bidding on the domain..ill get it up shortly for those interested.

i was actually sitting right next to ken during the bidding.

fris 03-07-2007 08:37 PM

passed at 7million, also naked.com passed at 1.75 mil i think

BlackCrayon 03-07-2007 08:46 PM

yeah, passed at 7 mil and the reserve was 7.5 i believe. personally if i owned the domain i'd keep it and live off the revenue.

makefuckingmoney 03-07-2007 08:50 PM

remember these are not always bids..although there was apparently a real bid on porn.com but everyone knew the reserve was 7.5..so i dont know that the 7 was really sincere..youll see on the video..if your bidding 7 mil..whats another 500k when you know you will definately have the domain at that point. so too me..it was a fluff bid knowing they wouldnt own it at that point.

BrettJ 03-07-2007 09:31 PM

ah. there were 5 of us in the room listening to it online and it didn't make sense to us... I also wondered why one of the other bidders didn't walk up to the guy and make a person to person deal on the spot... i'll front the extra million .. and take a 1/7.5 interest in the company.

Nysus 03-07-2007 09:31 PM

$7.5 million would buy a lot of signups... :) At that point I'm sure it's more a matter of finding that many.

GAMEFINEST 03-07-2007 09:34 PM

if i had the money id buy it..

makefuckingmoney 03-07-2007 11:11 PM

i think whoever got cheesepizza.com for 5k was the buy of the day

im off to register pepperonisausageandhampizza.com and sell it to them..

I also had a hard time understanding the strategies of the buyers. I understand that everyone wants to get the best deal possible but for instance goods.com had a $150k reserve. Someone bid $125k and the domain didnt sell, then 5 domains later the auctionere anounced the owner of goods.com dropped the reserve to $125k. The domain went back on the auction block and didnt receive any bids.

As for porn.com, that one didnt make any sense either. They announced that the buyer would only have to pay $1.5 mil upfront or something like that and you'd get the domain for 8 months before you would have to settle up the difference. I mean if you can bid $7 mil u can bid $7.5. Why not make the bid and pay the minimum upfront? They said the domain receives 50k type ins a day which translates to 26k clicks and makes $4k a day. So in the 8 months you'd have to settle up you'd already make over $900k. If you kept using it for ppc you'd make your money back in just over 5 years. And Im sure if you knew what you were doing that domain could make quite a bit more.

I think another guy nailed it when he said there were a lot of fluff bids.

PHP-CODER-FOR-HIRE 03-07-2007 11:54 PM

Juicy D should buy it with all his fleshlight money and brand the hell out of it :D
