You seem to be on a hot little run, surprised this was available to register and a bit surprised at the sold price, pretty cheap.

 

[Federer]

I agree on both.
Still, not too bad for 15mins work.

Hmm did that drop off the radar recently or something? I run routine checks on [premium geo] + [premium service] domains regularly and this was taken when I last run a scan. Besides very nice hand reg and fast sale, congrats!

 

[Federer]

Yes it recently dropped.
Thanks, Dave.

Seem to be doing very well emailing a few end users for domains. Mainly sub-£500 sales though.
Is it legal in U.K. to email end users and offer them a domain that could benefit their business/branding? Never received a complaint, just curious. End users are emailed 1 by 1 and are hand-selected. Contact details included in email and opt-out mechanism is included (even if there is no "list" to out-out from).

One of the key points of this legislation is that it is unlawful to send someone direct marketing who has not specifically granted permission (via an opt-in agreement) unless there is a previous relationship between the parties.

I think that just applies to contacting individuals, not businesses.

 

[Federer]

Oh... that breaks part of my business model then, if I am not legally allowed to contact businesses offering them domains relating to their business.

Back to the drawing board then.

 

[martin-s]

That legislation doesn't apply to businesses, just identifiable non-business persons.
