This is reagarding this tread that I found googling: Read it first :) :
http://www.namepros.com/domain-appraisals/371178-search-engine-optimization-net.html


What a wired situation. You will probably laugh very load :yell:

What first comes to my mind is an old joke that I would like to start with.

A newspaper reporter comes to a school to write an article about some children.
What is your name, the reporter asks one of the kids. Bruce Lee the kid says.
Strange he thinks and asks another child. Bruce Lee is the answer again. He goes then to the teacher to find out what it is about and before he open his mouth the teacher is shouting "They are all lying, I'm Bruce Lee"

So to continue on this threat I would like to say I'm the owner of the domain http://seo.net

But habb was 5 minutes from actually buying it from me. And this is so weird so I just have to tell this story.

Well I got a buyer (habb) who gave me good offer for the domain. So we agreed on the conditions and they came with the car driving 500 km so we could sign the deal. They called me that they just arrived and will be at my place in few minutes. I made just last check on the google putting in keywords "seo" and "domain". The bell rings on my door and at the same time a link is popping up saying "SEO.com Domain Purchased for $5 Million". I'm opening the link and what do I see? A photo of a guy that I met almost 10 years ago at the Rapid Site dealer network in Boca Raton, Mike Mann. If I remember right he just moved to US from Germany and had started an e-commerce business. What a wired situation??? What should I do now????
I was quite shocked and you probably guessed that I couldn't sell this domain to these poor guys without making more research around the whole warped situation. Not enough that it was sold to so high price, but to a person I have met in real life????

I have read now about Mike's great success on selling domain business for MUS 65. It's really cool to know somebody who have got some success.

Another thing why I didn't sell to you habb was that your hand shacked terribly showing that you were very nervous. The rise of the offer with 2/3 of the original value means that it was a good choice. And with your offer you are not out of the game.

When now researching what the value can be I got very surprised founding these posts because I own the domain and I didn't post it.

Thanks guys for your opinion on the value of http://seo.net
I decided that I will try to sell it on sedo.com on an auction. I have not contacted sedo yet but I will do it soon. If I get something around these values you posted here I will just let it go. My mail is [email protected] if anyone wishes to contact me.

Add on to this post:
I didn't want to write a book about all details but I have to make this explanation here so you will get the whole picture, because there have been many comments on that:
The buyer said that he has to come anyway to my hometown, but when taking later it turned out that this was the only thing. When they were driving there were still details (conditions) that was discussed and added and changed to the contract and mailed back and forward. So there were no final commitment or decision on the deal. English is not my first language so please try to see the whole picture. :)

The $5million rumored sale wasn't genuine. The seller was trying to sell it for quite a while at 500k so I'd guess it went for that or lower. Would say around 30k for seo.net.

The appraisals are between 1 - 750K. :imho: it will be somewere between.
It will be interesting to see where it finaly lands when the auction is over

I don't think it has any chance of getting 6 figures, math.net sold for 36k a week ago and it is a (slightly) better name.

math.net is better? in what crazy parallel universe do you live? :)

I think seo.net is a great name should definitely go for xxx,xxx

you have to remember how much sense a name makes on the internet. Math is a great name, no doubt, but how does it apply to the internet? Can you actually replace a professor with the internet?
Seo, however, is born off the internet. So yes, this could very well go to low xxx,xxx

All depends on finding the right buyers. Can you do better business on math.net then seo.net? There are great stuff you can do around seo.net for seo buyers in the jungle of seo. If I was younger I would probably go for it myself, but it's time to leave space for young generation.

I dont know which of you two (habb or sonix) has pushed the ethical envelope farther.
Habb for posting in the Appraisal Section a name he doesnt own :|, or sonix for renegging on a confirmed deal because he thought he could get more money. :td:

Cyberian,
All negotiations were not ready, the deal would be confirmed in this case, when the papers would be signed.
Until that it's always a business risk that one part can leave the negotiations.

Yea sure! You admit you changed your mind 5 minutes before he arrived.

Mister, You will find in this business your reputation is THE most important asset you own.
Your word is your bond!
You agreed to a price, period.

Good luck in the future. :|

I can argue with you on this one. What REPUTATION do you have if you rip off people on something valuable because they don't know about it :( . Both the seller and buyer must be satisfied :imho: .
