Offer 10% of what you think its worth. Then go up from there.

Ahh, and there lies the rub my young paduan. I don't have the first clue
what it's worth

2 words knocks the price down considerably. They would have to be pretty
damn good words.

They're pretty damn good, nice, short and memorable. A close example would
be something like MicroSoft.


We have bigcircle.com and think its worth 5 figures if that tells you
anything.

Ahh, but which 5 figures - 10,000 or 99,000? Hence my predicament ;)

Cheers,

Will

I have a domain name that I want to purchase.



All I can say is that is a two word, easy to remember .com, with no
hyphens,
numbers or funny spellings, and definitely no 'my' in front of it ;p



The owner wants $16,500.



From what I read, domain valuation companies can come up with a number,
but
other sources say the number has no relevance because at the end of the
day
it comes down to:



-what the buyer is willing to pay

-what the seller is willing to take

- how bad the buyer wants it vs. how desperate the seller is to unload it



Anyone have any strategies for getting to legitimate price (it could be
close to  the asking price for all I know)?



PS: FWIW, there are free online estimators, which I figure are damn near
useless, that put the value at about $2000
