Forget who bought, how the heck did he get him to $4.5 ?

I can only guess the buyer offered too much to start and tipped their hand. Nice sale.

Maybe he had researched his domain beforehand and had an good idea of who "may" eventually come looking for it

Google - gotta luv it !

If the radio station was the buyer, the seller may have contacted them and offered it to them. More of you should maybe try this instead of sitting back and waiting for the offers...

Don't take this the wrong way guys, but for some people/companies, $4,500 is literally pocket change.

The market says the domain is worth exactly whatever someone is willing to pay for it. If you don't know that, you need to go back to Economics 101 or read Adam Smith. That's the foundation of capitalism and the American (and pretty much the world's) economy.

And that's definitely the foundation of the art world, where a painting an artist couldn't GIVE away could suddenly sell for $5 mill. the next day. Vincent Van Gogh once made a painting of his friend and gave it to him. At the time, Van Gogh was a nobody and this friend thought his painting was terrible. So what does he do? He uses the painting to line his chicken coop. Fast forward to the modern era. That same painting has a pricetag in the millions.

Stop wasting time trying to argue that a domain has a certain cosmic objective value. Spend your time trying to find the buyer who will pay you $4,500 for a domain you think is a piece of garbage. In the end, it doesn't matter what YOU think YOUR domain is worth, cause you aren't buying. It only matters what the highest bidder thinks your domain is worth.

I'm no expert domainer, but I'm a veteran at buying and selling things.
