Congrats for the great purchase. I think it is a very nice name.

Just in case you want to sell there is someone in the wanted to buy section who is willing to pay up to $5,000. Just want to help.

Good luck.

I think i know couple of people who would pay $10,000 usd or more for such name. just there is no way for anybody to get such name for only $5k !

Sorry I did not know this one can be sold for $10,000.
To me $5,000 is a lot of money.

Lol ;). Love your commitment to educating the masses about liquid domain value.

Nice domain. Nice job. Can you share any details on the transaction? Did you initiate our simply buy through a marketplace?

I contacted the seller in 2017 and he quoted $1 million. I’ve reached out numerous times over the years with offers. In fact, I offered to pay more in 2018 than we just agreed to. The game changer was that I offered to pay in btc this time.

Price was 5 btc or $45k at the value when sent. My pitch was that btc might be $50k each soon so it was a great deal for him. While I actually believe that, to me the domain has potential to fetch more than $250k so the trade off was worth it.

To give the seller a plug, his site is fumi.com

Wow. $45k. That’s a lot of face masks.

thats a cool trick:
buying on the future value of BTC
not selling on the future value of the domain

$5,000 is a lot of money, unless your company wants the best domain and is highly profitable. In that case, the right domain could fetch 7 figures.

I owned around 50 LLL.com and 300 LLL.net and sold most of the .com to Scott Richter back in 2006.

I was already saying this exact figure before scrolling to this point. If I own this name, I'm not stepping down lower than $250,000.

I knew you meant " Biz " when you said "a few bitcoin" in your OP. Thanks for sharing bit of the story and strategy. I've learned a great deal from you here over the years, and you have giving me so great pointers at times. You truly are a Pro and can't wait to see what you do with this. It takes both wits & guts and put up that kinda loot on something also having the ability to do so is a proven trait of success in itself.

I saw the plugs site was in Chinese, on a negotiations level, assuming English was no barrier?

Congrats again. Knowing how you go about your sales, without a doubt in my mind you're going to set a record with this one.

Very kind words, thanks!

The seller is from China but we communicated just fine, thanks to his good English. We also had years worth of email exchange so I just sent the btc direct and upfront. It’s not something I’d recommend unless you’re prepared to lose the funds.
