Gym.com for 520$!

[Froix]

Hey,

Found at Afternic Gym.com for 520$!! I just insta "buy it now" and just waiting to see how it ends.

 

[discobull]

Yeah i know. It was listed at Name too for a similar price.

Name.com is part of the Afternic network. It's the same listing.

You just insta wasted your time

What a truly awful logo choice for their website/brand. Dots as heads on letters that have no dots.

 

[Froix]

Yep i just insta wasted around 5-7minutes

99.9% chance that this is an error/mistake/IDN.
0.1% chance that this is legit and you will be the new owner of Gym.com
If it turns out to be true and legit, congratulations
This is definitely mid-high 6 figures domain name(may be 7 figures for the ultimate end user).

I just gave an example.
The odds that this will turn out to be true are not in his favor.
I have some experience with this.
I have submitted offers for some premium domains in the past only to get them cancelled by Sedo after 2-3 days since they found out that the seller is not the owner.

0.00000000000000000000000001% chance I think you mean.

The left side of the decimal point is correct, but the right side is overly optimistic.

It was listed on godaddy today. I saw too many fake LLL.com listing on godaddy with a very low pricing.

 

[baseballworld]

I would of typed in the url first to see if it was developed. I mean unless the seller forgot some zero's here would be the find of a lifetime if it was for sale.

 

[LoneDeranger]

I Guess finding this domain at this price is similiar to winning the lottery.. I would be pleased to know that I didn't missed this small chance!

 

[Maxwell]

I see this all the time at GDA/afternic. I've seen science.com and more ultra premium names all BIN 1000 or less...of course always to good to be true

 

[Josh R]

Probably just afternic listing them for sale in order to get small interest free cash advances.... Conspiracy 101

To say they have such a good domain, their website is dreadful.

 

[mitch007]

... and just last week eye.com appeared on ebay.... turned out to be a scam as you can see.Check out the "winner's" feedback to the seller. Be careful out there...

Oh well

Last update was in 2012, no wonder their website looks like this.
This could explain why they suddenly want to sell it and be done with it.
Analyzing a website is one of the keys to know if the owner is willing to part from it.
Ignorant domain owner selling for low buy now is very rare but sometimes is possible.

Same goes for their Twitter https://twitter.com/Gym

Looks like they may have just been waiting to sell - hope the OP gets the domain!

So your theory is that since they haven't updated their website it must mean that they've now become so desperate that they're going to want to drop their $xxx,xxx domain for $520? Somehow, I have a feeling that that won't turn out to be the case.

 

[STELLAR]

I am not supporting either of the theories but @discobull maybe the owner doesn't know value of the domain? Who knows!

 

[jdab]

We'll all just have to wait and see

I doubt that very much. I'd suspect that any owner of a one word 3-letter domain very likely gets an ongoing stream of offers. Buying this domain for $520 is a pipe-dream at best.
