dog co.uk

Does anyone know the asking price for dog co.uk?

The seller has apparently rejected 146 offers so far. If the stats are correct the traffic is awesome. It make set a new record for a co.uk domain when it does eventually sell, I would think Sedo are eagerly looking forward to that day.

Have you tried making an offer at Sedo because you might get some feedback from the seller?

paulc is on a distinguished road

I think they counter offered with around 125K when I offered on it, and when I came back much higher they stuck at 125K.

In Feb 2001 they countered with "Dog.co.uk - Euro75k" if that helps.

Personally unless you own the plural I would look elsewhere.

Thanks for the comments. I was curious about the history and sellers expectations rather than any plans to acquire the domain.

If this name sells the buyer is going to pay top dollar, which is generally not a good idea. On a six figure budget there are much better investment opportunities in the uk domain market, but they take a lot more time effort and contacts to find.

A domain fund with "share holders" is an interesting proposal, mentioned recently in another thread.

VERY optimisitic back then, and still sounds a little over the odds. For the plural I could see it going that high or more.

I think it would be better the site dedicated to the girls of Barnsley who have simply not put any effort into looking their best this year IMO.
