I routinely buy domains I don't use - not to be a squatter but my imagination gets away from me. I imagine most HNers have dozens of domains they don't use. Someone emailed me recently for a pretty good one and offered $500, I countered at 3k and we settled at $1,500.
Most people will be sensible about it.
- ianlevesque 12y agoYes, $1500 for something you paid almost nothing for, and were doing nothing with, is sensible. I get that this is the world we live in, but it's madness.
- HeyLaughingBoy 12y agoA few years ago I purchased a really nice old music box in great condition at a garage sale for about $4. I didn't know anything about them, it just looked nice. Some time later, I noticed a maker's name on the bottom and I googled it. Similar boxes were selling on eBay in worse condition than mine for around $1,000. I will not part with the music box for less than $500. If someone actually offered, I'd probably hold out for more than that. Is this madness?
- maxerickson 12y agoI wouldn't be surprised if the average is less than 1.
- outericky 12y agoless than 1 domain? I have like 25 personally... and responsible for another 20 or so company wise. Raising the average.
