Would it be fair to say that this is intended mostly for the high net worth individual?
At first I thought it was more of a way to keep track of a normal person's belongings, but with the appraisal feature, it seems to be more for collectibles.
- aylons 13y agoThanks! I was puzzled by the site, unable to come with a reasonable use case for it, until I read your post. I was specially intrigued by the idea of value variation and notification. "My refrigerator's or bed's market value will never increase", thought I while shaking my head at the website. With collectibles, art, and a few more valuable items like cars and watches and, this may actually make sense. And I can rest knowing this service is definitely not for me.
- nilkn 13y agoMid-way on the page, the examples it shows are a $2.5M home, a $90k car, and a $20k painting. I think you are correct. It's an interesting idea and it very well may succeed, but I think even here on HN its affluent target demographic will be at most a small percentage of readers.
