Iggy,
Right i want to say a few things as you are trying to drag my name (my respected name i like to think) into your dispute with Billbo.
I have stood up for Billbo as i know him as a nice bloke around the forum like i know a lot of nice people around the forum.
We have a laugh on threads etc, as i do with Laird mobi, 3dgeek etc etc
That's pretty much it.
All i have seen you do is run down an extension i think a lot of, cast dispursions on a member who i think is a good egg. Cast dispursions on a another member (Ron/Duke) who is also a good egg. Cast dispursions on Dnjournal, which i can't believe as it is one of the most respected websites & record of aftermarket sales imo.
Now. My sales records are top notch. I love dnjournal as i mentioned. I was lucky enough to be mentioned on there a couple of months ago:
Here's the link:

I sold Thistle.com to Thistle hotels
Now i had to confirm with sedo & Ron i wanted the sale published & i think they checked with Thistle too. I can only see professionalism.
This domain was sold on sedo auction.
To mention i 'tagteam' on a dnjournal liking thread is ridiculous.
I love dnjournal, no question.
Now we all see domains on sedo where we think noones going to buy that or how did they get that bid. I agree sometimes. We have been very vocal on this forum trying to get sedo to tighten up as we all hate non-paying buyers etc. Luckily they recently introduced this system of verification (a start, not enough though). You're not the only one who has these views.
Sedo are a pain at times we all know that.
Now whatever issues you have with Billbo, you need to sort. From the points you make , some clarification obviously needs to be made by Billbo.
I haven't looked at in any detail but obviously the mods will etc
I am sure Billbo will want to make some comments, as he needs to clear himself of your accusations.
I would like to think he is clear as like to think the best of people.
To get back on topic as the poor guy who owns invest.mobi has had his thread hijacked for too long.......
I too will be interested to see the outcome of the sale.
It is possible it may sell for $10k.
It is also possible the bidding may increase substantially.
Sedo only report the sale at the bottom right of the homepage & dnjournal too if the deal has been done. Call me naive, but i have confidence in them in this area.
One thing i will say about the sportsbook sale is if it is not pointed to sportsbook.com or mirrored. Or a fully established site is not up & running within say 9 months i will agree something is not right.
Let's take the candy.com sale when everyone said he was mad. He had the benefit of traffic & had it paid off in 2 years. At the moment .mobi's don't get traffic so that is not an option.
