Fast.tv - Keyword Dot TV Name - Make yourself some money
Here is a chance for you to buy low and sell high.
Up for sale is fast.tv. Obviously, it has a myriad of potential uses. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to find the right end-user for this name, but several of us have identified potential suitors in this thread:
You are welcome to contact those players and any others you feel would be perfect candidates to acquire this name. I don't expect the average joe to jump for this opportunity, but the guys who know how to sell, know how to speculate, and how to play the game may walk away with some serious cash.
Here is how it will work. Starting bid is $1. $100 pushes it to auction on SEDO. Otherwise, the highest bidder after 7 days will get it. The sale shall conclude at 11:59 PM and 59 seconds on July 7th, 2008.
Domain Name: Fast.tv
Registrar: enom.tv
Premium: Yes (10k renewal)
This Domain expires on: 8/15/2008 2:17:05 PM
PLEASE DON'T POST UNLESS YOU ARE BIDDING. SEND ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS VIA PM AND I WILL POST OFFICIAL ANSWERS IN THIS THREAD. BY POSTING IN THIS THREAD, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS.
Question: I buy the name from you, will I need to pay the renewal fee at the date of transaction, or can I sell it before the renewal date and escape paying the renewal fee?
Answer: You may acquire the name and sell it before the renewal date without paying the renewal fee. That is the point of this thread. Buy-low and sell-high before the renewal is due.

If Dot Com is King then Dot TV will be the Queen, and I would rather be caught making out with the Queen...

Its only been a few years that I have made my sole income from the Internet. I didn't get here by making one or two bets. I made it here through my successes and failures. Without failure, you will never have long term, sustainable success.
Fast.tv was but one premium name and Internet related project I am involved in. I recently received a text message from a close friend on this forum, inquiring why I had not attempted to sell the name myself. Based on some posts in this thread, some of you are thinking the same thing.
The short answer is that several of my other projects are taking off. Looked at in isolation, the sale of Fast.tv was a huge financial loss, but don't read into it too much.
Fast.tv was but one of more than 80 premium, keyword .tv domains that I acquired over the past 3 years. Domaining is but a single activity that I am involved in with respect to the Internet. My other projects have taken off in a way that I no longer have time to commit to finding the right buyer for the name, expanding my portfolio, or dealing with names that have potential but require a lot of time or work. I would be perfectly find if I didn't buy another domain name going forward.
As I mentioned in another thread:
Why should I be selfish when I don't have the time to put the name to better use? If another member (in this case MindWrecker) sells the domain to a corporation and they build some bitchin website, then don't we all gain?
MindWrecker gets some cash for his hard work and .tv gets some serious exposure, which benefits all of us (including those like me with some real .tv gems).
I am not here to try and make the most money. I am here to learn how to generate the most income for the least amount of effort so I can enjoy my life. Fortunately, I don't have to wait to retire to start enjoying it. I am enjoying it now!
I take a portfolio approach to all of my businesses so I expect losses. That is just part of the game. I subscribe to these mantras:
Big risk, big reward (i.e. you have to go big to win big)
If you always play it safe, then you will always be safe
Of all the people who could have purchased this domain for $1, I am very pleased that MindWrecker had the courage to take on this challenge. I am confident that he truly has the ability to attract a big fish and I know he is not going to let the opportunity pass him by. If he doesn't sell it, then what has he really lost? I can guarantee you the experience he will take away from seeking a buyer for this domain name will be worth more than his time plus a dollar. It will be invaluable.
Since you said you did not want me to send $1 via Pay Pal, I send you NP$
I have sent payment of 45 NP$ at the current bank rate of .023 per NP$, equaling slightly over $1.00 US
Thank you!
