I'd love to know who're the two (make it three...so far) putting a value of less than $500. I mean this is really bizarre...:confused:

I mean I've myself sold LowerManhattan.info for $1.5K and have several offers for over $2K for geo names none of them of the cailbre of athens.info. (if in this case there's a particular situation....TM issues, etc...that I don't know of then its a different story).

"Please appraise athens.info"

Although I'm not a big .INFO fan ... I do believe they can be appropriate and effective with geographical locations/destinations! Of course, I would also recommed that one secure "AthensInfo.com" under such a scenario. One opinion. Good Luck.

No point in trying to please each other....you noted your opinion (reflective of your pathetic attitude about new tlds) and I noted mine (about your patheticism)......;)

I would love to know who they are as well!
I have recieved a lot of 3-5k offers and in the poll there is 0 for this range!
Is everybody quoting reseller prices in dnforum?

Now that the situation is bit more clear I think one can make a couple of informed remarks. Firstly, ten folks who've put the valuation at less than $1K, especially 6 with value at less then $500, most probably are hardline ".commers" who have their heads in the sand like an ostrich pretending new tlds do not exist (or even if they' 've somehow made their debut they're not to last and would just dissappear in non-.com abyss). Secondly, the four with their valuations above $22K are somewhat unduly optimistic who're such firm believers in new tlds (in this case .INFO) that their feelings can be summarized as ".com is a dead horse" and that new tlds (.INFO) "rock". My own opinion, biased yes but delusional not, is that at this point in time the true value of the name lies somewehere in between these two extremes (probably $8-12K) with much better than 50% chance that it'd grdaually move upwards with time.....Cheers & Good Luck...you've a GREAT name here (its your'r right?) ..:)

Yes, it's mine.
Was hard to get it too. This one was the most expensive of the names I got from LR2.

I respect your opinion but why?
Is this the value you would pay or the value you think someone(reseller or end user) else would pay?

Right now, the "Less than $500.00" valuation is leading in the poll!

Guess who owns the aforementioned "AthensInfo.com"??!! :)

Again, I just don't believe an end-user or reseller would pay any large amount here WITHOUT the corresponding .COM! One opinion. Good Luck.

And as if that doesn't tell you anything about the mindset of this bunch of seven ostriches with their heads in the sand and minds cluttered with severe bias against new tlds so much so that they won't even consider existing (although modest so far) data base for .INFO re-sales and the owner's assertion (unless this bunch of seven are so sick to believe that he's lying) that he already got many offers in $2-3K range. Go figure and try to inject some common sense in your brains (for yourself) and in your posts (for other).

have you not read through the thread?
he has already received offers of 3 to 5k for the name as most others with similar names have also had such offers. Therefore your valuation that it is worth less than 500 defies all logic.

Not only that, but your assertion that an enduser would only be willing to pay if the corresponding athensinfo.com was included also shows a lack of knowledge about the .info market.

.info is popular in Europe where .com is largely associated with the US. So, given that so many Europeans do not feel that .info is inferior to .com, this requirement is negated.

It doesn't quite defy logic in the absence of any proof that such offers truly exist. Listen, I hope he does have the offers. I also hope he gets what he wants for the domain! But, I haven't seen any such evidence ... and from reading through other recent posts, I see a lot of folks claiming to have offers (and very near their Asking price(s)).
Let's hope all of them are real and all the domains sell in the very near future! I simply tend to be cautious ... especially with "new" extensions such as .INFO, .BIZ, .US, etc. I do hope for good times ahead, though. Good Luck.
