Dear Fellow NP'ers,

I'm very happy to announce that after about 10 years of monitoring Fishing.tv, I've actually been fortunate enough to acquire it with the assistance of a backorder at Name.com. Many thanks to Paul over at Name.com for helping me achieve this long term goal by offering the Backorder Service on a first come, first served basis. It seemed that every time I checked on the status of the domain, it was either registered or was recently re-registered. The approximate $4500/year renewal didn't help either and I'm glad that's a thing of the past now. I'll soon be renewing this one for as many years into the future as I can as this name personally holds terrific value. It still bugs me a bit that Verisign cannot extend this offer to current owners, (ie, one year premium buyout and its reg fee from there), as I feel they should be rewarded for paying premium prices in the first place and should have the first right of refusal to renew at premium prices. Anyways, who knows what the future holds for verisign/.tv and with the future release of Google.tv ...

Congrats on acquiring this name, one of the best names I have seen mentioned in a while.

People shouldn't be rewarded for making bad decisions, this isn't welfare.

Awesome name. Congrats. As you already know I own FlyFishing.tv. I have already received multiple offers on the names within few weeks of registering it.

You will definitely receive good offers on this name. Good Luck with it.
