I let a domain go that I later regretted so I tried to buy it back from the squatter who registered it. The idiot wanted $2500. I offered him $100, then went up to $250 and he told me I needed to give up and buy a domain that "I can afford."
The guy had the domain pointing at a generic landing page for 3 years. The domain had no traffic as it was never a live site. He let it expire this year and I picked it up for about $8.
I had to email him after I got the domain and point out that he could have made $250 off the domain a few years ago and wouldn't have had to pay to renew the domain twice. I also told him that his business model was pants-on-head retarded. If you ever have the opportunity to get 1000% profit, you take it. He just replied "fuck you don't email me again."
