    Phew!

    I have been working on this deal since March and bought it from the administrators only to be told they had already sold it, very long story and kept working on it tracking down the new owner.
    So 7 months later finally closed the deal and bought PCs.co.uk for £5000 ...hurrah! :D

    The perfect sister domain to TVs.co.uk

    Thanks guys, I bought it in April for £3500 but had to get a refund as the administrator had sold it already to someone else with goodwill, was gutted for a while but chased it down.

    I would certainly take it for 5k but Im not sure that its the to-die-for domain.

    I read it as pcs - which should like a carpet or sofa shop. How do you intend to get round the capitalisation issue?

    Great buy mate, do you think you'll lease it soon or are you planning on making it into a proper site as suggested on your blog by hiring writers?

    I think this one's a keeper Khalid, going to spend on writers and promotion so it will be a longer term investment to build something bigger.

    Great idea mate, the likes of John Chow, Shawn Knight and Bob Buskirk are making good money off computing sites so I'm sure you can do the same.
