What is this all about?

I understand that "1stbandwidth.com" sold for $800,000 in 2000. But I look at whois and it is created in 2005. Was it dropped by the owner who paid suprisingly nearly 1 million for xxx range domain.

What do you think?

why do you think it's value is/was only xxx range?

 

[james2002]

It is for sale at sedo with only 2 visits over last 31 days. Who would pay xxxx range here in this forum? I would not pay more than low xxx.

If true, the company that originally paid that amount, probably went bust in the Tech Wreck of 2000....


....It was probably regged again in 2005 - at Reg prices...

Maybe it didn't really sell for $800,000. The archive shows nothing in 2000 and 2001.

Yeah. I think so. It might be like music.mobi, games.mobi etc... with high bids which never materialized. It might be also similar to Pizza.com million dollar deal which fell through.

Pizza.com eventually sold ...privately though.

I mean first sedo auction bid fell through.

There is no such thing as "domain appraisal" or "reseller price".

The price is established when the buyer agrees to pay the seller.

I just sold a LLLLL.com for $x,xxx yesterday where I paid for $19 . "reseller price".
