From someone who also works with and helps entrepreneurs to acquire domains, I think you got a great score here Brett and your persistence has to be noted. I'm sure it didn't take 1 email
Only one question I'm curious what your "non-low-ball" initial offer was if you got it for such a reasonable price.
- bretthellman 15y agoBefore we even had the idea for "HALL" we tried medium.com, foundation.com etc... to explore the possibility. We were never really excited about these names. We started the conversation off by offering $5k. That didn't work out well. The owner essentially blocked us after emailing back w no thanks. We even considered the idea of leasing a domain which is doable.
- ohashi 15y agoClearly you didn't research the owners well. They are owned by some of the savviest guys in the domain business. They are also sitting on some of the best portfolios of names and have very little incentive to sell for anything but a really high price.
