- warent 5y agoLast I heard they easily fetch 7 figures even for garbled acronyms. gail.com is a word, a name, a typo of gmail... in other words it's worth a fortune
- Tempest1981 5y agoYes, but a homophone of "gale", so some people confuse it. So probably half a figure less.
- CyrusL 5y agoNope, only a couple hundred bucks: https://shortnames.com/llll https://shortnames.com/llll . Two-letter .coms are often sold in the high 6 and low 7 figures.
- MontyCarloHall 5y agoGiven that this [0] is very likely Gail’s husband (the guy who purchased the domain as a birthday gift for her in 1996), I don’t think they need the money. [0] https://www.linkedin.com/in/rkevinwatson https://www.linkedin.com/in/rkevinwatson (I found this by Googling “Kevin Watson La Cañada”, the defendant mentioned in the domain takeover lawsuit.)
- neom 5y agoTechnical co-founder of DigitalOcean owns wit.com (and he loves telling people) - he told me he's had offers well into 7 figures for it. 10000% sure he'll never sell it, ever, he loves it. :)
- zwayhowder 5y agoI own several 3 & 4 character .com/net domains and have never had any requests to purchase them. They are all too obscure to be useful I guess. This one would only be super valuable to Google (Catch gmail.com typos) or if someone wanted to launch a product called Gail (in my opinion). Paying a million or more for a domain to consolidate branding is common for example pop.com https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28223515 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28223515 and I know Puppet Labs paid a pretty penny for Puppet.com when it became available, and they were able to rebrand once they had that domain.
- tsjq 5y agoNot only GMail, many of those hits might be people trying to reach Gas Authority of India : GAIL website . It is www.gailonline.com
- SevenSigs 5y agoI got a cheap 4 letter .com for you, only $10k
- dangrossman 5y agoI own awio.com and nobody's ever offered to buy it from me. It's not for sale, but 4-letter domains that aren't real words must not be so valuable.
- rubatuga 5y agoTree fiddy
- Matheus28 5y ago$3.51 final offer
- johnasmith 5y agoI'll give you $5 for it.
- granshaw 5y agoaws.io is what you should’ve bought instead ;)
- icedchai 5y agoI have one. I also have a /24 IPv4 address block. Back in the old days, you often registered both at the same. They were also free.
- duud 5y agoThe floor for random four letter .coms is only around $100 currently. Gail.com would go for 1,000-10,000x that though.
- achow 5y agozoom.com sold for $2,000,000 on 12/14/2018 https://shortnames.com/llll/sales#0U https://shortnames.com/llll/sales#0U
- zomg 5y agothe shop that services my porsche owns epe.com. they have had several offers for $1M plus, but they will not sell it. i only take my vehicle there because they own a 3-letter domain! ;)
