Sure, at first glance it looks like a bum deal but throw some SEO at that beast with a solid $10 theme and resell that baby for $30 mil, easy!

You see this with car listings some times. Out of the blue, a car pegged at 3-5x list price, with no real justification.

Same with some books on Amazon. The "other sellers" section sometimes have a copy of an in-print, non-first-edition book listed for like $999.99. What's the point?

chump change. Now, if that guy had like 50 sites listed at that price, that's starting to be some real money.

I've seen this on Etsy, where sellers will price one piece of art outrageously to get traffic into their shops, because naturally, everyone clicks on a $250,000 painting. :hilarious:

I was thinking, maybe he meant to post it up in IDR currency but even then, 1200 bucks is still overpriced lol but still doable. I've sold crappy domains for over 1K a few times.

Even if that is true, there are several dozen more sellers who still want $10,000,000 for "my-domain-sucks-a$$-124.ai"

This guy is no anomoly.

Lol most definitely. These are the same people who play the lottery on a weekly basis...they're hoping and wishing to luckily strike gold.

Looks like someone read How to Make $1,000,000 Flipping Domain Names in Four Hours and is 13 days away from being a millionaire.

It is not just Amazon. It is eBay as well. They think that since it has gone out of print. People will pay 10x over cost. Ridiculous. I do not know what is worse. That or the idiot who pays 10x over cost.

.IO extensions are a massive trend that big companies keep a close eye on. They might well become the next .com for technology.

Lol Much?
