The comments on the listing might explain why they haven't gotten any bids. 37Signals seems to be relying on their name to sell Sortfolio as opposed to using best practices for selling sites on flippa. They haven't provided any traffic/revenue proof, responded to questions, or put any visible effort into the sale beyond listing it. Sounds like they aren't too serious about selling it on flippa.com.
- luiperd 14y agoThey blogged about the sale. I think one of the bigger turn offs might be the fact that the new owner will have to get everyone to setup their payment method once they switch. Because the current payment system relies on 37Signal's own.
- a5seo 14y agoI think this is spot on: the payment system issue is huge. My guess is they just put the listing on flippa to attract attention. I'll bet there have been bids but nobody is paying attention to the listing and accepting them. They certainly haven't done any of the basics, such as answering questions. One commenter wrote, "For all we know, he is dead as he has not replied to ANY questions." I, for one, am not impressed by their behavior. It just screams arrogance.

- ricardobeat 14y agoFrom the comments: I wonder why they are not accepting any Bids, one has been pending for over a day now. That means they got at least one bid.
