Sorry missed the .net bit. I'm not a fan of that extension but then Im not interested in anything besides co uk and com.
No, nets ok, i've always done well with nets on google, bouncycastles.net was No 1 for a long time.
co.uk is offers over 5k on sedo and .com is not for sale.
saying that there only just over a million searches for "bouncy castles" i could get any extension to the top of google with very little effort if there was only that amount in front of me,try getting "coach hire" through all the traffic in google for that term.
that's why i don't mind an unpopular extension in niche markets because there are very little competition and a greater chance of success.
there might be offers over £5k for the co.uk on sedo but that is why it is sitting there and not sold.

One primarily for the UK & Ireland market, I think the predominant terms in the USA are 'bus rental/s' and 'charter bus'.
The hyphen version is taken by a coach company, even the .me.uk hyphen seems to be taken by one, so I don't think all end users will be put off by the .net.
SnowBoards.net $30,000
Courier.net $25,000
Cosmetics.net $25,000
BarStools.net $23,225
SkinCare.net $22,500
HomeEquityLoans.net $15,250
B2B.net $15,000
SeniorLiving.net $15,000
Marriages.net $12,600
CarInsuranceQuote.net $10,000
SnowShoes.net $8,100
I like the name and think it is worth £x,xxx imo
thanks for that, offer so far is only £1250 but would look for minimum 2k plus
Thanks Mark
I was looking for an overall opinion on the .net value, I have had a couple of fair offers, don't forget end users arn't only concerned in page rank, branding is a major factor and the .net is international. I've no doubt the co.uk is worth far in excess of 5k (I've known companies spend more than that on lunch) the prestige alone in the UK is enormous, look at the money spent on vehicle signage and 5k is a snip. Imagine in real world advertising just having to remember coachhire instead of rpcdobcoaches or whatever. If I were a coach company my major priority would be to own coach or coaches or coachhire or something with such prestige value.
Incidently, it can take 10 years to sell a good domain, that doesn't necessarily mean it's got a low value, anyone can give things away for free.
Perspective:
The futures bright you've just got to remain focused.
My opinion would be that there is a high bias towards local coach hire companies when you try and hire a coach, hence my opinion about competitive advantage on owning the generic domain - for a given coach hire company, it won't benefit them that much because most of their business is local not national, hence a cap on domain value. It is a nice domain, but I am talking about the economic benefit of owning the domain to a given company, which is critical.
This is just my opinion, I hope a good sale can prove me wrong.
