    One I want comes up as 'make an offer', might just put in a bid for a tenner to hopefully waste a bit of the owners time. They have been hogging it for years without ever using it. Maybe the answer is to charge a decent whack for holding it in the first place !?

    Does it mean somebody has defo 'Parked' the domain specifically to sell it ?

    Just put my bid in, 80 quid minimum, I'll wait a few years longer.

    They offered me a fiver, and I asked for a £1K.

    We then negotiated on the phone for about 10 mins and settled on £500. I'm sure I could have extorted a lot more, but the domain was not worth much to me.

    I'm sure there are "agents" out there who will play tough on your behalf for a fee and get you a good price.

    How did you value it?

    DP - how did you reach your figure of £500 for the domain - was it you who put the value on or did you ask for an offer?

    I have one which someone has asked if they can buy "for their wife's business" but am not sure how much to ask - is it best to get them to offer first and then negotiate upwards or other way round and negotiate down?

    Cheers, GF

    In fact resale of domains should be absolutely verbotten: including indirect ways.
    I've got www.cybersquatters.com for sale if you are interested.
