Contact came direct, their was an old magento ecommerce site on it, it did zero rev, negotiations started low x,xxx with me going back at just into £xx,xxx , probably about 3 or 4 emails going to and back, then agreed on the price, all done and dusted in about 48 hours. .UK didn't play a part until I mentioned it.
I think I picked the domain up off a member on here back in 2011 for about £350 I believe
Pretty happy with the sale, agree that it's great branding for a sofa company and that's their plan I believe.
I did originally have plans to dropship sofa/furnitures, hence the Magento site on it, however never had time, I also had a plan to sell super comfy clothing, but always swayed to building a brand for that idea on Comfys.co.uk
