...is up for sale. (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5752474282)
Current bid is at $37,100.00.
holy crap, that is a ton of money. I fail to see how this is going to pay for it's self.
If you read the auction description, so far the site has made $0. Though, I agree, with that many hits they could make a lot off of advertising.
When IPChicken.com goes on eBay it will be a big thing, but not this.
I personally find $37,000 for a domain name to be a pretty big thing.
How much was america.com going for a while ago? and what about get-a-life.com?
Selling domains isn't a big deal..
I don't know, I don't pay attention to the domain market.
I used whatismyip a lot more than ipchicken, and I didn't even know what ipchicken was until maybe a year or more after I found whatismyip.
Well, I guess its more of a deal to you then it is to me. I'm interested into seeing what it turns out being, a big advertisement, or will it stay the same(ish)...
There is a pretty huge markey dedicated to domain reselling these days, I saw a story on cnn about a guy/girl who tried to sell www.tsunamirelief.com or something very similiar to that just after the tidal wave in south eastern Asia for around $50,000 USD. Keep your eye out for marketing pitches and subsequently register the according the domain ;) , you might find yourself making alot of money.
yeah, but I heard that there was some sort of scandal with that domain. Like someone bought it and sold it cheap to a person they thought was going to use it for a charitable website and he sold it on ebay for a ton of money or something.
ps: the domain is up to about 110,000 now.
Sold! Winning bid: US $386,100.00
What's sad is you know the company is probably going to have to use spam/popups to get it all back. What a waste of money.
FREAKIN!
I need to make a domain that is INSANELY trendy & then sell it!
ok its like this gethis.com
that trendy?
