Exactly what i was thinking, great bargain if it is true

Perhaps if sedo had posted the auction here they would have got more for it.

whoever sold that is a muppet for selling so low
not just hosting, domains angle, but dating, social networking
why go on a webmaster forum to drum up interest? notorious lowballers and no idea on branding most techies
plus if you sell on sedo it just gets lost in the auction sea with no promotion on homepage, noones ever gonna find

sedo is the LAST place i would auction
think about it, domainlore with it's low but targetted traffic would have got a much higher price imho

Whos that Neil Bowen bloke?

'There's no way its worth your starting bid without the .com in my eyes '

Yeah, network.co.uk & network.com for £5k... even 50k would be cheap.

The bloke has guru.co.uk ... everyone is a guru online

 

[Pred]

lol
even 50k dream on for the com

the com is in another league
you couldn't get for 300k, 400k .............

also this particluar puppy is owned by oracle, since 1988
so lets say priceless, and not for sale
therefore, making the .co.uk even more attractive, well to Brits anyway, as at least it was for sale!

wish I'd known was for sale

btw, Neil is a member here, think he owns that forum

Brill - I hope he lists his names for sale here as they will be cheap as chips if he sells as he appraises

Whos that Neil Bowen bloke?

Yep he's a member here and has some pretty popular sites.

I emailed the owner of this one in May 2010. At the time he said that he'd turned down 2 offers of £6,000 and was looking for £20,000 for it.

Interesting how these things develop.

I wonder if there are additional steps required to be able to bid 5,000+ eg extra verification or similar. Could explain a lot...

 

[GreyWing]

If that name was on Domainlore it would have gone for 15+, I would have gone to 15 on it.

But these days can't, don't or won't visit sedo's shambolic system.

no, its 10k you need additional verification

 

[Alien]

Way too cheap!!

Yup, I've sold him some domains on AD, so he's here and active.

 

[philiporchard]

A great buy...

Straightaway, I read the word 'network' I thought of 'networking' as in the verb 'to network'.

A social site similar to LinkedIn possibly...

 

[Ashton]

Yeah same, I thought business networking straight away. Great buy.

 

[Edwin]

Funny, I also thought about business networking first (when I saw the domain in the thread title).
