Congrats! Where been sold?

End user contacted me. It is a multi-million startup that went with new gtld first, but, as many others, realized they still need .com. Could have probably asked for much more, but it goes against my principles to price that way. It just is not worth $xx,xxx or high $x,xxx, even if it is worth to them.

Basically, it was a matter of standing strong in my boots right from the start. Here's how the process went...

It was a young lady who first emailed me with a very brief message: "would you consider selling this domain name?" That's all there was. This strongly indicated to me that this was a VERY serious, interested party. Why? Basic human psychology. Most offers that come through ramble on and either made an offer or ask for a price right from the start. I felt this was someone who knew how to play the game -- they wanted ME to make the first move in the price war.

I decided to NOT respond to that first email to test my theory. If they WERE as interested in the name as I suspected, they would ask again soon. Sure enough, 3 days later I received another email with another very brief message asking the same question as before. I waited 2 days this time then replied with "I wouldn't rule it out, but it would have to be a very substantial offer as I'm currently using this domain for my business. Have a nice day."

The next day, an even shorter email from her: "What is 'substantial?'" I replied the next day with "I would not consider any offers of less than $12,000."

Several days later she emailed me with: "Is there any way you could take $4,000 for it?" (Now mind you, I knew I had a serious buyer on my hands at this point, and it was time to really play the game). I waited several days to let them sweat a bit and let them wonder if I dropped the issue because of their low offer. I finally replied to the lady with: "I'm sorry, but as I mentioned last week, I can't consider any offers of less than $12,000 as I am using this for my business".

She replied within hours this time (I sensed she was growing impatient) and said: "Can I have my boyfriend call you? He's better at negotiating".

Now THERE'S a dead giveaway! I gave her my phone number, and the next day I got the call from a very friendly down-to-earth gentleman: "Hi Gene, me and my girlfriend are starting a business and we're interested in your domain name. I could pay you $5,000 right now... and use escrow.com for the transaction -- I'll even pay the fees".

At this point I acted like I was growing very impatient. I explained to him everything I told his 'girlfriend', and nicely said g'bye.

Because of many things he said in our conversation, I suspected that this 'couple' were actually working for a major corp somewhere, acting as a mom & pop business.

He called the next day and left a message on my answering machine (I was expecting this would happen, so I didn't pick up the phone). "Hey Gene, we've been thinking about it and we decided we could go up to $10,000. Please let me know if we can make a deal -- call me as soon as you can".

I waited 2 days, called him back and after a bit of small-talk I said "it's been nice talking with you and I really wish you well in your new venture, but $12,000 is my absolute lowest starting point". (notice the key words "starting point"... I intentionally used those words so as to give the impression that I may even try to negotiate a higher price if you gave me time to think about it!). I got off the phone quickly, and waited for him to make his last move. He called that evening and accepted the $12,000 price. He began the escrow, I transferred the domain and I had the bank-check in hand about 10 days later.

Patience is your best friend in this business!

Gene

OK OK This is really great! but as Midano just asked that $12,000 domain sale does still have a domain placement on it. plus this domain sale wasn't off of some domain auction site so it definitely can't be confirmed unless you can post the check! lol but anyways if that's the truth then that's awesome and I'll be honest I'm very jealous at your skills!

Several months ago before reading up on NP I sold my domain FleetBeacon.com. same as you. someone contacted me. But they did not hide themselves. It was an email from a company called FleetComplete.com., I wish I could have asked people on here about what to do next. I still feel I could have gotten more. First they started at $250. I said it's too light. But then I never did give them a price. So then they said $350. ( I should have used that "I'm going to use this for my business. Sorry I can't let it go for less than $12,000) I really didn't give them a price I just figured something like this if was sold by say Buydomains.com could have a sticker price of $2500 easy. This prior to reading this article. Too late!

http://www.businessinsider.com/why-10000-for-a-domain-name-is-still-cheap-2011-4

long story short ( Tend to babble.) but I sold the domain at $800 only! I had it for less than a year. no traffic. and this is what I kept thinking to myself. stupid stupid stupid. I basically lowballed myself. was that a newbie mistake? This company I of course researched and they are huge. plus my domain is an exactly keyword match for an actual product!! Geeez! someone smack me!

yea I'm being hysterical because after reading this thread by Gene. I could have gotten $12,000 maybe more. well anyways. I did registered BeaconFleet.com too. so there's other's companies selling this product but I doubt beaconfleet.com can merit the same price as FleetBeacon.

I think a new threads should be created about the value or no value of flipping words in a domain.

I can't wait to hear people with their comments. I know I'm going to hear it. soon.

How much do you think I could have gotten really for FleetBeacon.com?

The buyer was FleetComplete.com and they sell Fleet Beacons for fleets.

so did I screwup?

at the time of this posting I also "just in case" registered fleetbeacons.com lol because I know one of guys will eventually get the idea to register it. lol Let's hear the comments.

And just in case someone on here saying that this post has nothing to do with this thread. remember.

I'm reporting a completed sale for Fleetbeacon.com for $800.
