domain Please Appraise BearingConnection.com

Please Appraise Bearing/../Connection dot com

I have been contacted by someone interested in purchasing the domain bearing//connection dot)com. I do not have it listed for sale anywhere and I have it private so they had to send email to my registrar. I took it in 2007. I would like to know what you all think it would be worth?

It does not have a website so is currently unused. It is a good bearing company name or to sell many companies bearing products or links to same.

All help is greatly appreciated.

My gut telling me this is not the type of name a minisite developer or a fellow domainer would be interested in. I feel you got an enduser interested. Perhaps a guy that manufactors bearing parts for engines. Ask $1500 or more if you dare. Goodluck

Johname, thank you very much.

I asked them what they wanted to offer. They came back with $300.00.

What do you all think I should reply with?

Well an end user throwing out $300 can be a big leap for them. It's hard to come back with 3k because they could totally lose interest.

The connection of bearings is very important and this term may hold high value to those in the field. They may have a new product or marketing investment and my gut tells me this domain is the ONE they are looking for.

In all honesty most appraisals without your current offer would be reg fee on this one, so keep that in mind.

Considering you only have 3 years into it, whats the least you would take? What kind of email account to they have? A company or a gmail account?

Guys spend $75,000 on one machine in their plant and offer you $300 on a domain name thinking they did you a favor ($290 over what they think you got in it) There times to try for a home run and this seems like one to me. Yes I am make an assumption on who these people are. Warning I may be wrong if $300 makes your year take it.


Edit: this thread is ranked 1st for your domain, this is why people spell names nutty like Bearing///Connection dot //com when they make a thread

Unfortunately for me I missed your responses.

They want me to transfer it and then they will overnight me a check.

I am not sure if that is proper or not, what if they don't send me the check?

And I am not sure what the last post means by spelling the domain nutty.

How much?

Dont do it!!!

They can keep the name and not pay you.

Are we talking 300 bucks? I guess you can do it if you trust them, Goodluck
