domain Domain hack，Bilet/im，My ticket in EN

Try checking on Sedo for .im listings. What’s the asking price, and if there are auctions (check GoDaddy too) see what people are bidding. You can also check Namebio for .im sales. I found one 5-figure sale for k.im (nice hack and one-letter domain) and a bunch of four-figure sales, but most of those were short English names. Most sales were in the three-figures. Your name is limited by using a Turkish word. So you’ll probably need to knock down the price based on that.

I don't see the point in checking Sedo listings, because:

1) Domain hacks have nothing to do with mainstream TLD's, like .com, so the old low-competence idea of checking what everyone else is doing on Sedo *as a way of deciding what YOU will then do* just don't apply. Also, domain hacks are all completely unique from one another, and so, aside from the merits of the name itself, the ccTLD only becomes relevant when determining if it is a (legally) safe or viable jurisdiction.

2) Sedo, as far as I am aware, allow sellers to dictate sale prices. Because of that, domain prices are, generally speaking, going to be over-inflated... to put it mildly!

As for the domain, it actually looks quite good. The dot appears to be a perfect, and natural, separator for the "bilet im" phrase and if it genuinely does mean "my ticket" then it must surely have good commercial potential with ticket operators based in Turkey.

Also, the .im extension is very good. The Isle of Man is a super-safe jurisdiction from a legal perspective. In my opinion anyway.

Negotiating a sale, however, may be difficult unless you can speak fluent Turkish, but I don't see why this domain is not worth $1000-$5000 to the right buyer.

Good luck!
