Nope, it can be seen in the stats. No value in my view.

Tim, we all know that domainers have their valuation models but as you know it comes down to what someone is willing to pay for it. It's in your area of expertise so you should be shouting what you think its value is.

Can't see any value really but I am sure a wedding planner/photgrapher in the gold coast may be interested in the name you just have to find the right end user.

If there was a clear enduser market for this it would be worth something here and now.

Not really this is a domain name forum with domainers that pay wholesale mostly you have to seek out end users not just throw domains on markets where other domainers are looking to turn a profit.

Not worth anything to me or probably a lot of other domainers/developers etc however a end user that is promoting a wedding business, or wedding photographer located in that area would probably get some interest.

Only true way to get a value is contact a target market
in the area and see if anyone's willing to pay at least double reg fee or maybe to a lead gen J/V.


It's a bit like selling a website to a low end target market because It is much easier and a well known platform but your really just selling to other resellers that will never pay full price.

just take a look at a certain forum where you can pick up websites wholesale and sell them on flippa. which a lot of the time are also under priced buy off flippa and sell to offline buyers looking to spend a few k investing in internet businesses

there is always more then one way to skin a cat

If people thought this name had clear resale potential they'd buy it to approach those buyers themselves (or buy it to wait). That is basically what most domainers do. But if domainers won't pay anything for something that sends a pretty clear message about the chance of an enduser sale in my view.

That sums it up pretty well, you won't pay anything for it and the owner should contact endusers and see if anyone will pay $50, a cool $25 profit. I don't think we are even talking checkout chick money here for the time involved.

Agreed always better to make a profit then loose money though $25 of profit is better then $25 loss and may get 2 or more interested with any luck that really want the name then you get a bit more....

$25 is going to get eaten away by some phone calls and and the first hour or two spent on it. Checkout chicks earn $19 per hour. What is the better option?

$19 per hour these days for a check out chick sounds a bit high

and I would use email costs nothing and skype if needed.

hmm checkout chick or email a few people I know which I would rather do

but if you must work as a check out chick go for it

I agree the name is not really worth anything but you can sell any name to the right person if it is a generic usable term or good pronounceable brand name. have seen some shockers in the .com space sell for a lot

look at 60.com 310k why what is the term 60 it's not 60th and why has your own name 40.com.au not sold with 60.com selling for $310,000

.com is in a bubble .au is still very low in comparison maybe contact the buyer of 60 and spruik your domain pretty new to .au lots of rules etc but I think in a few years all the good generic domains in .com.au and .net.au will be gone.

The market is obviously picking up steam with a few notable sales lately.

I don't like to lose money even if it is after making a profit.

me either but it depends if you can leverage into something better at the time

If I have to sell a web site or domain for instance to fund a property purchase under market I'll sell the smaller asset to get the larger asset because I'll make 10x the profit on the larger asset.

Because 40.com.au isn't really worth anything much whilst 60.com is obviously worth a lot. Domainers will pay close to 100k for this type of domain (that was the situation last time I looked), there is a liquid market. We'll there is probably a liquid market for 40.com.au as well, but I don't think that market goes beyond reg fees paid.

.com is in a bubble .au is still very low in comparison maybe contact the buyer of 60 and spruik your domain pretty

Yada, yada. It doesn't mean a thing to say one market is a bubble whilst another is low. Its a bit like comparing Toorak with Narre Warren, the valuation differences are what they are - there is always reasons, and what happens in the future is not known.
