discuss Showcase and Discuss Wearable Technology

[equity78]

The next trend thread had some good discussion about Wearable Tech, So here is a thread to showcase and discuss.

Do you need money and did you try to negotiate?

I countered offer just like Mads told me to. I'm waiting for his reply.

If it was wearabletech and not wearablestech i would suggest you to wait at least x,xxx$ but i dunno what to do in this case...

 

[TheFifty9Sound]

I don't think the plural sounds right. It like saying guitarstech or computerstech - it should be guitartech or computertech. I wouldn't try and blow the sale by holding out too much.

 

[lanj]

You have a point there. I'll just have to wait what the buyer says and if he makes another counter I'll probably take it.

Hey guys I got an offer for my domain Wearables/Tech (dot) com for low $xxx should I take it? or hold on it and wait for better offer.

Wouldn't sell for no less than $500. I'm no expert but I've sold a few with wearables+keyword between 500 and 1k. Could be worth more in the near future.

Got a serious offer of $5500 via DNS just yesterday on Wearaholic dot com.. but holding out for more..

@GravityEleven - Curious to know what the outcome of this was. How much did you counter with and did the sale ever go through?

 

[TheFifty9Sound]

I think the term "hearables" deserves some attention. Of all the wearable tech coming onto the market, I think this ticks the most boxes. Not only are headphones already an established product, making it less of a jump to start using them, but it turns out the ear is the best place to monitor heart rate, oxygen levels and so on - Making it perfect for fitness and health monitoring related applications.

On top of that, I'm particularly excited by the potential hearables have in the medical space - specifically, hearing loss. How many of us know someone who's hearing just isn't what it used to be? Those whose hearing is damaged to the point where they might struggle in a group conversation in a restaurant, but fall short of needing a hearing aid? Hearables have the potential to bridge this gap with consumer level hearing augmentation devices that are fully programmable, and it's a massive market.

There is plenty of news and articles here if you're interested - http://www.reddit.com/r/hearables/

not yet, but i know now who was behind that offer.. it's a Domain investor with deeper pockets who is trying to buy up several top quality niche domains for around $5k max.. (like he did with DroneWorks.com from Mike Mann)..

can not tell more yet cause still on it.. but i know i won't get top dollars from him, therefore not in a hurry to sell yet as the wearable market is still in it's infancy..

reg. Hearables you are quite right.. i am getting several (lowball) offers on SmartEarplug.com & SmartEarplugs.com for a while already..

Hi, Lanj, did you end up selling this name? I see you have it priced at $3k BIN at Sedo.

I own WearableTechDevices, so I'd be interested to see what your name sold, or sells for. Best of luck!

Buyer and I are still talking for the escrow service I insisted that he should shoulder the fees, but wants to split 50/50. The thing is, buyer takes a couple of days to respond to my emails he's taking too much time.

Let them take their time. Sometimes good deals take a while to finish. Sometimes there are time zone differences, or the person's busy, or they're using stalling as a negotiation tactic. He/she clearly wants the name, so be patient. Good job on trying to get them to split or cover fees!
