[Domains - Wanted]

Offering to end users, start with mid to high $xxx and settle on low to mid $xxx. Then move on to greener pastures (read: use the proceeds to buy more, better names).

Rationale: while there are many potential end users here, most of them are small in size and unlikely to invest substantial money in a domain name. Especially one that can be easily substituted by another one. Lastly, there is the multiple spelling issue.

Out of curiosity, what do you mean by 'the multiple spelling issue'?

Tire and Tyre in different parts of the world.

True, but this seems more of a 'local' domain. I doubt too many small tire shops ship tires to other continents...so RoadTire would be right for our part of the world...well RoadTires would probably be better, but you get the idea.

Agreed. I was referring to the smaller potential end user base, limited to the US, as opposed to companies and tyre shops from all over the world...
Oops, have I just "misspelled" tire?

Fair enough. Well, except for manufacturers and traders in markets like China, with huge English language branding potential, that is in its infancy. FYI, the prevailing English spelling in use in China is tyre... and tire as well

No such ambiguity in India, another Billion+ market and huge export base. And Sri Lanka, if memory serves, one the world's bigger exporters of rubber products. Pretty sure it's tyre there.

Road is the thing you drive on, rode is past tense of ride, no issue there unless they want to market to someone selling already rode on tires!

Tire is the North American spelling, tyre is used in all other English countries, so yes, that would limit it to North America, not that that is too much of a problem, but a tyer is one who ties so that is not even relevant.

Thanks! Paid 80 dollar so I think it's a reasonable investment.

a tier = a thing or person that ties, it's not tyer

A tier is one of a series rows or levels, like tiers of seats or tiers of society. A tyer is one who ties.
