Ask HN: How much should I realistically expect for selling do.pe?

5 pointsby flyGuyOnTheSlyalmost 5 years ago
I bought the 4 letter domain do.pe ~10 years ago now when I was a way more into smoking Cannabis than I am today.<p>Never turned it into anything than a couple of side projects and it&#x27;s been sitting vacant ever since. (Shoot me, I know, I hate squatters too... but I am too poor now to just let what I assume to be worth a few bucks expire and go back into the registrar pool... they&#x27;d probably just auction it off if I did that anyways)<p>I&#x27;ve been wracking my brain for months now trying to figure out what to do with it and I keep coming up with nothing so I figure I may as well sell it.<p>A) How should I go about doing that? Throw up a sales page with contact information on the domain? List it with sedo&#x2F;similar?<p>B) How much should I realistically hold out for in terms of price for this domain?<p>I am not a domain broker... never sold a domain name in my life... so I honestly have no idea how to even price it.<p>I had an offer of $10k USD a few years ago which came directly through my email registered to the domain WHOIS.<p>I turned it down because I still had hopes and dreams of using it back then but I no longer do.<p>Probably should have taken it... :&#x2F;<p>Any insight you can provide would be greatly appreciated.<p>Thanks for reading.

Nobody? Anybody? Any links to where might be a better forum to pose this question perhaps?
