Thank you. -Staff™

I already have several appraisals for my domain but I'm looking for a few more before I sell it. The few I have are here: http://webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=504067&highlight=restock.net

restock.net
RESTOCK.NET

Pure letters/No typo/No IDN.

This would be great with nearly any company (EVERY company / store / supplier needs to restock sometime). The appraisals in the above link are as follows:

1.) "Easily mid xxxx, possibly xxxxx. I see some huge business potential - reminds me of Buy.com for some reason.
Has great brandability."

2.) "i agree... a bit carried away with the XXXXX however mid to high XXXX sounds alright. definatly an excellent name. good luck."

Could you put a price on this, even a rough one?

 

[cwnt]

A very nice name indeed, nice purchase
Anyway, I think you could easily get mid to high $x,xxx for it, and maybe low $xx,xxx if you were lucky.

 

[RyuKenLi]

I agree, I think its worth high $x,xxx. Maybe market it to restockit.com

Funny... I see ppl do the same in this exact forum often. That's where I got the idea. Oh well... any other opinions on this domain?

It's a nice name sure, but I think these appraisals are getting infliated slightly...

Mid XXX - High XXX reseller

low - mid X,XXX [end user]

I fail to see why this name is worth more than $300 but if some of you folks really think it's worth $x,xxx to $xx,xxx, then you should go ahead and register restock.org which is available.

and biz never regged

That's where you kids are mistaken. .com and .net are the Holy Grail of extensions. .org doesn't match the word and .biz is extremely unpopular--compared to the Golden extensions. restock.biz wouldn't be worth much whatsoever. I'm talking about a GOLDEN extension, not a lame one that people mostly register for investment. I haven't seen many popular sites use a .biz extension.

If anyone registers those two extensions, then ALL major extensions would be taken, which would increase the value of my .net.

I like .nets as much as the next person, however...

1. I see limited commercial application for the name. It's a verb meaning "to stock again". What kind of entity would the end-user (the restocker) be? Would this entity be a restocker for every kind of product? If I need gardening supplies, I'd either go to my supplier or, if I was to search, would look for "gardening supplies".

2. Small OVT count: 145. Even smaller Wordtracker search count: 8 searches over the last 90 days for "restock".

My opinion, and I've been wrong before, $100.

I don't see this iif is $xx.xxx keyword under .net and org is not taken

Your research was accurate (I assume; I'm not feeling well so I won't double-check). The possible development is pretty much what I said before: Every company / store / restaurant etc, has to restock sometime. A website www.restock.net could be used for wholesalers, web hosting resellers (this is a little off but it's possile if applied properly), etc. It has far more value than it might seem at first glance. I'm not saying it's $xx,xxx+ but anything under $1,000 is an insult.

And I don't care if the .org, .biz, nl, ca, us, co.uk, .fm, cn, blah is regged. This is the .net. Obviously nothing is better--extension-wise--than restock.com, but restock.net is #2. I daresay rstock. cn or restock.ws isn't #3, 4 or even 10.

My apprasial was for end-user, dont get me wrong, but I agree with peaches that high XXX is for a reseller.

I agree with you, 100%. I only paid low (very low) $xxx for it. I was thinking about selling it to a company but I'd entertain resellers, too. Only a select breed of domains i.e. 3-letter or pure dictionary word are worth loads of money to a reseller without development.

With all due respect you submitted it for an appraisal and people view sites values differently.

.net is not the holy grail IMO. People will usually always go for .com and use .net as a "lucky loser" if .com is unavailable. .com has and always will be the daddy.

It's worth a fair bit but not more than $1000.

This is my honest opinion.

 

[Archangel]

I asked for appraisals, no matter how good/bad. I welcome any educated estimate. Saying under $1000 is an insult was referring to business-buyers, not domain resellers.

Show me stats to prove me wrong -- I haven't seen any -- but the .net is STILL the #2 extension, second only to .com. A lot of those who view the extension as a 'lucky-loser' are resellers. Most ppl are comfortable with the .net and .com from how they were around from the start. Users don't care much for the lucky-loser idea. Non developers/domainers/website admins don't even look at the extension most times, keep in mind. But they would be more likely to visit a site that had a .net (assuming they saw the url in, say, SE results) than, say, a .ws.

But even $1k is good for me. I'd sell for $1,000. I still have college bills to pay

Extension set aside, and talking purely on the name itself; restock.

On a consumer level, I don't see much value. Perhaps as an abstract, but not as a word/term business describer.

Business, well, definately, as a restock (returns, etc.) site for goods, but I have yet to see an individual business go this route, regardless of industry. If they utilize their own supply chain technology then they'll use their own (and secure) domain/sub domain. If they outsource to a logistics and/or fulfillment partner, these companies provide their own gateways, providing low/high-end tools to accomplish this (maintaining their individual brand in the process). That said, a business in this line of work could use that name/domain, but restock.<ext> as a business site in the above context only *briefly* describes the scope of what they do, so I can't see it. Anything is possible (and as we all know, it generally is!), but as a domain serving restocking services, hmmm...

It's a good name (and extension). I wish you all the best with it. Personally, I wouldn't let it go for under x,xxx. The right offer will come by someone who would love that name for their business model.

Just my 3 yen

Reseller: low xxx
End user: mid-high xxx

.net has always come second to .com

That is the botom line

They cannot both be the holy grail mate.

 

[Archangel]

I think it's a good word, yet not a good verb. Or is it? All you've said is true but it could also be used similar to www.liquidation.com where ppl have a surplus of items and offer them to others at a discount. With Liquidation.com, business owners can go and 'restock' their inventory when it's low at cheap rates. restock.net could be used similar.

.net can be second in line, as it is (I was saying .com and .net are the 2 best) And try comparing .net to .biz -- I don't see much there to say.
