Ha! Just picked up a competitor's domain

Jack Gordon · Sep 16, 2003

Today, I acquired a (former) competitor's domain name, courtesy of NameWinner. They were never able to compete with me when they were trying, so I imagine they just lost their competitive spirit and hung it up.

The domain is MovieMailers.com. Somebody placed a bid against me and ran it up to $80 - was that anyone here?

Ah that was fun. Back to work. :-D

Absolutely! I had been watching that one since it expired, waiting ever so patiently (and quietly) for the drop. The competitive bid just came in the last 24 hours or so (grrrr....)

FrontRow, You know the pros (most of the people on this forum) wait til the final couple hours.

So, you never know if you are under the radar or not.

Congratulations on getting the name.

True. I was staring at this one too. Idly though. I noted that it seemed to be an interesting site. That wonderful Pool hotlist... you never know who's radar its being put on. Almost like they're blackmailing you into placing a bid so it doesn't "possibly" go out to their list as a "hotlist" item.
