I dont' think anyone with that power here needs their cut of the 10 grand that badly

Yeah sure, listen 10k is 10k. Even the super rich understand what 10k is. Most did not end up being rich by treating money like it is nothing since they make millions per day or for instance poor Mr. Gates who was loosing $34,246.58 per minute, every minute in 2009 or in a larger numbers that is $18,000,000,000.00 which is just to fucking big to wrap your head around.

Anyways most of these people are often not just roaming around looking for parked domains. Odds would say if someone that successfull would have already bought every domain that goes with their business's long ago. Unless of course it was a new acquisition of a company, even then I am pretty sure it would just feel different and you would not see such numbers just tossed about. Even if they are billionaires they are still not going to try to get the best deal possible. Hell ever watch that show Shark Tank (yes rip off of British version), anyways pay attention to how Kevin O'Leary acts. (assuming you do not know much about his eco investments.

Thanks. I fascinate lots of people, but it's always nice to add a new fan.

Basically you are telling a guy his site is worth 10 grand when it is obviously not to anyone with the power to masturbate without assistance. For you to persist that it is and make him think he might not be being set up makes me suspicious.

Again to each his own, but I'm just thinking about how he should approach everything with much caution and you keep insisting that nothing suspicious is going on.

This is nothing against his site. I've seen much worse. It's just that most people pay a lot less for much better.

I keep insisting that nothing is suspicious? Seriously, is there an imaginary discussion going in your head? No where, ANYWHERE, did the original poster talk about the transaction nor did I.

All I said is a domain for sale is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it, and I could see someone that runs a custom clothing tailor biz to see the value in the name. From that you derived I'm a scammer.

You're lucky I don't do business on this forum, you should use a little common sense before calling people scammers.

It goes to my original argument, who cares that people paid less for a name you perceive as better? If the buyer is willing to pay $10,000 for a brandable name he likes then that's what it's worth to him.

"well worth" "viable tailor" just to give you the benefit of the doubt. You are either a complete idiot or involved in a grift.

Then you went on to infer that this site could even possibly make more than a bad adult tgp. One adult sign up in any niche would make more than this site probably makes all month

I stand by my comment, custom clothing tailor businesses can make a lot of money. SO YES, THE DOMAIN NAME IS WORTH THE MONEY IF THE BUYER PLANS ON USING IT FOR A VIABLE TAILOR BUSINESS. It's a brandable name. it's short and it makes perfect sense.

Do you have any clue how much custom tailored clothes cost? Do a google search, it's not uncommon for people to pay upwards of $3,000 for a single custom tailored suit.

Yes, it's my opinion that if someone has $10,000 to drop on a domain name for his biz it's probably going to make a lot more than your shitty TGP that gets one sale per month.

pentae · 10-08-2009, 12:41 PM

For an online tailor made suit or shirt company that plans on having a strong brand, I do believe this domain is worth a lot.

Tailored suits are a $6bn a year industry, and we're only just starting to see the rise of sites taking advantage of this market online (see http://www.youngupstarts.com/2009/05...you-just-fine/ for eg.)

The whole reason I purchased this domain was to get in on something like this but I have other pressing projects and priorities.

Its just a domain, there is no site. Its parked.

The money should be hitting escrow.com in the next few days. Honestly, I'm going to be sad to see it go; but my bet is that its these guys who want to buy it:

Come back to us when the money is transferred, the idiot posting above me somehow thinks I'm the one selling you the domain and I'm scamming you. Congrats on the sale.

You got a great price for a parked domain, and the buyer got a great domain name to use for his biz.

smutnut · 10-08-2009, 12:58 PM

You are both speculating morons and have a good time with yourselves. You can pull figures out of your ass as to how much an industry makes until Jesus returns but that doesn't mean your pathetic asses are going to make anything in any industry, which is proven by the fact that the site is being sold.

If anyone is paying you 10 grand they are dumber than both of you (since even though the idiot doesn't know it, it is a parked site) and if you don't take the cash without any question you should be the ones blowing your brains out.

Why you even asked this question and posted this thread and then try to question the responses is way beyond me

People dont get rich by writing a bunch of checks, I realise that and agree it's something to always keep in mind.

I'm just trying to open up some minds to other ways of thinking. 10k for a domain is NOT ALWAYS a scam, lol. I have a domain I wouldnt sell for under 1 million, and I dont even care what someone on a board thinks, it's just what I think it could be worth to the right buyer and I'm not even selling, lmao.

Not that it applies to this situation necessarily, but I think sometimes people just say it is a scam without any possibility that it could be true, and often times it can be and IS true.

So to recap, I am a scammer, your piece of shit TGP will make more with one sale than the owner of a custom tailored clothing business who has $10gs to drop on a brandable domain, buying this domain is the same as McDonalds buying "yourburger.com", something about "adword textiles" and there is no way conversions will compare to adult.

Lets bow our heads to this genius, no need to innovate and invest in new business ideas that are apart of virtually untapped billion dollar industries. Lets just run TGPs and make $100 month and talk like we know everything.

I think its certainly a fair amount, I'm assuming you didn't pay much for it. I agree, its most likely the owners of the .net who are making the purchase. Just curious, how did the negotiations go, did they originally make a much smaller offer?

Mickey_ · 10-08-2009, 01:19 PM

Stop arguing with each other for a second and consider this:

Someone comes up with a novel/useful idea that is somehow relqted to tailor services,his market gap analysis confirms that there is indeed a need for his idea,puts together a solid business plan and pitches it to VC's. He gets funding, op's domain seems to reflect his idea/service (whatever that may be, perhaps a solution to something that's currently missing or could be improved in how everyday people use/interact with/find,etc tailors). On top of this he knows YouTube is one of the best known brands online so the domain should also be easy to brand. 10k might be a very small portion of his funding.

My point being there's life beyond tubes,tgps and adwords.
If the idea pulls x mil the first year,was the buyer still 'an idiot'? A bad negotiator maybe. Look at the big picture.

Brujah · 10-08-2009, 01:21 PM

Congrats, great deal for buyer/seller. I love tailored shirts. Youtailor.net doesn't took too bad either.

lazycash: This is a good question. Originally the buyers offered a few hundred dollars, however I wasn't going to let it go for at least 12g's. (10 was as low as I would go) If I didn't have other projects on right now I would have kept it and developed the business out of it. We have been negotiating very slowly for around a year now by email.

Well obviously you guys dont think its worth as much as me and my seller do.. I'm sure that with his business he'll pull a few million from it and 10g will be a drop in the bucket. I find domain real estate fascinating because the value seems to differ so greatly from person to person.

No doubt he'll pull a few million, probably a few hundred million, billions maybe

Why was that other dude asking about a (dot)net when you're selling a dot com?

You should sell it to these guys who keep telling you how much they know about the tailoring and dress me up business. They sound like they know their shit. How come they can't open their wallets with all the cash and brilliance they have?

Good luck to you too. Just for the record I have around 200 other blogs, tgp's and mainstream horseshit and would love to see how to make maintstream work. I'll admit to having no clue about that. But all my bills are covered by just pushing porn and I'm not sure that's your situation.

If you're a negotiator why are you asking these people for info, cause we both know what you're shit is worth, whatever you can sell it for.

It's not like I put sites in my domain you idiots can affect and I don't know anything. I mean get real and answer what I just asked.

Why would someone with all the horseshit you're saying even ask if he should sell that site for ten grand? Especially if it's getting squeezed from the top now? I'm not saying it can't be done, but if someone can do it, why is he asking about if he should?

If you're just bragging cool, congrats, but you must know where I am coming from

You really gotta slow down, I know you're just having fun trolling but you seem to not even read most of the time. He was referring to the company who operates the .net of the sold domain www.youtailor.net which already has a successful business and is most likely the party that is buying the .com from him. Initially I felt as you did that the domain was being sold for far more than it was worth, but after looking at the business being run on the .net of the domain I realize how valuable the .com probably is to them.

That makes a little more sense

He gets funding, op's domain seems to reflect his idea/service (whatever that may be, perhaps a solution to something that's currently missing or could be improved in how everyday people use/interact with/find,etc tailors). On top of this he knows YouTube is one of the best known brands online so the domain should also be easy to brand. 10k might be a very small portion of his funding. My point being there's life beyond tubes,tgps and adwords. If the idea pulls x mil the first year,was the buyer still 'an idiot'? A bad negotiator maybe. Look at the big picture. __________________ LifeSelector Affiliates - Make money today promoting the online porn of tomorrow. mb [at] lifeselector.com

Posts: 899	For an online tailor made suit or shirt company that plans on having a strong brand, I do believe this domain is worth a lot. Tailored suits are a $6bn a year industry, and we're only just starting to see the rise of sites taking advantage of this market online (see http://www.youngupstarts.com/2009/05...you-just-fine/ for eg.) The whole reason I purchased this domain was to get in on something like this but I have other pressing projects and priorities. Its just a domain, there is no site. Its parked. The money should be hitting escrow.com in the next few days. Honestly, I'm going to be sad to see it go; but my bet is that its these guys who want to buy it: http://www.youtailor.net/

You can pull figures out of your ass as to how much an industry makes until Jesus returns but that doesn't mean your pathetic asses are going to make anything in any industry, which is proven by the fact that the site is being sold. If anyone is paying you 10 grand they are dumber than both of you (since even though the idiot doesn't know it, it is a parked site) and if you don't take the cash without any question you should be the ones blowing your brains out. Why you even asked this question and posted this thread and then try to question the responses is way beyond me

The prestige is the whole reason I bought this domain and wanted to get into this business to start with. Where was your store based? lazycash: This is a good question. Originally the buyers offered a few hundred dollars, however I wasn't going to let it go for at least 12g's. (10 was as low as I would go) If I didn't have other projects on right now I would have kept it and developed the business out of it. We have been negotiating very slowly for around a year now by email.

I'm sure that with his business he'll pull a few million from it and 10g will be a drop in the bucket. I find domain real estate fascinating because the value seems to differ so greatly from person to person.
