    First of all a big congrats @AlexVerdea !

    Perfect example of a domain that has no value investor wise, but when someone wants it, it has great value automatically. That’s why you should never price the domain name unless it is very high.

    That is why you should never list your domain in the marketplace. Whois is the marketplace and you’re not giving up 20% to an unqualified broker and giving him all the power.

    When I got involved, the asking price was about $95,000. Had there been no asking price it would’ve sold for somewhere between $250,000 and $750,000. Not because the Domain was worth it but because someone wanted it. What’s the value to them is the only question you have to figure out!!!

    The lesson for all to know is don’t be quick to give a price. And if you do give a price, make sure you have it in your mind that you’re talking to a company like Amazon and quote accordingly.

    If you fish for whales, you will catch whales. If you fish for minnows, you will catch minnows.

    Go for whales!

    Did the buyer approach Alex or another way around ? How does Alex come up with that price when offering to the buyer?

    Congrats to Alex – who smartly took Rick’s solid advice.

    And I couldn’t agree more with the fact that for all but the most sensitive/personal names, all domainers should show their real names/companies in the WHOIS.

    If someone really wants it they will email you via the whois privacy. I’m sure many can say that has happened with their domains before, self included.

    This is a unicorn, an exception, not the rule. If you hold out for whales 100% of the time for an otherwise not so valuable domain you will probably lose big time. In this case the seller already apparently had some indication that it was a whale to begin with because of everyone involved in trying to buy it.
