Personally, I think they are full of it. They are just advertising their company. It makes for great news that they paid $1 mil. Therapists.net – “The site nearly surpassed our internal revenue projections for the month in its first full day of operations.” Truckloads of BS. Compete and Quantcast show no traffic whatsoever and yahoo says they got 15 inlinks. That’s not a typo, 15 links pointing to Therapists.net. Some of my bad domains that are parked have more inlinks. Maybe they need to mention that their profit projections were $100 and they ended up making $150 for the month.
Anyway, I had a drink or two and maybe I’m overreacting but I still think it makes for great advertising.
I agree this is the best domain blog out there. It’s the only one I actually post comments.

They did not overpay if they bought them as I described in my comments above.

if they actually spend $1M then they did overpay

This is great news despite whats happening in our world today.

But in my opinion, they overpaid for 3 domains.

Well I know that Psychiatrists.com sold at the TRAFFIC west show in this past February for $88,240.

I have no idea if this group bought it from the auction or got it afterwords.

At the same auction Podiatrists.com was offered at a reserve of $100-250K but it did not sell. However the site websiteproperties.com shows it being sold for $125K..

Pediatricians.com is also showing as being sold by websiteproperties.com for $150K.

So if this company bought all three from these sources, they could or did get them for a total of less than 400K.

Or someone made some money.

the quote “deal valued at $1 Million” makes me wonder how much cash was involved. Either way congrats to Tihan.
