Wanted: Domain Appraisal ScreenProtector.co.uk & ScreenProtectors.co.uk

[robfer]

I recently purchased and have built out ScreenProtectors.co.uk

I would be interested to hear your thoughts on the value of the domain names?

 

[robfer]

Was offered €5000 today for ScreenProtector(s).co.uk from another Screen Protector company based in Germany.

What are your thoughts?

take the money and run as fast as you can!

Consider how much you'd actually make from the site, considering most screenprotectors are for the lifetime of a phone thesedays... then take the money, as sean says.

 

[Bailey]

definitely take the money. They've obviously got the manufacturing base and quite rightly looking for maximum return - hence the generous offer. You might be cheeky and ask for 6k mentioning work done and Euro exchange rate - but I wouldn't push-it any further

take it, screen protectors will be obsolete in a few years, developments in protective glass are coming along v. quickly, gorilla glass and new graphine will make screens scratch proof so no need for them

Snap that money up asap!

5k for a product which is good for a online business with regard to size, outlay , mark up shipping, storage etc is peanuts although against that I’d question how many people that buy it prefer/ shop etc with a dedicated site as apposed to say buying on eBay ?

I’d suppose all other things equal would be down to cost but then do you need a dedicated site and if you did then isn’t brand as opposed to a sort of emd a better long term prospect? Only you know what it cost, it makes etc for the name as a stand alone I’d say 5k is better than you’d get from any auction or domainers? Some cynic’s may see it as all publicity for something ? If not though asking on a open forum were the potential buyer could possibly see all e.g are getting it cheap or paying to much etc is not the best way ?

5k is a lot of money. I would imagine even just investing half of that. You could set up a few decent websites selling other things. I think a lot depends on how much profit you make / expect to make on the site.

Thanks for the feedback guys - The site makes a great ROI on the protectors - As we have a direct deal with factories and have the products designed and shipped to us and we have just signed up a dropshipping agreement for Cases and phone accessories this week and we shall launch that in more depth over the next month.

The offer I think is fair just for the domains but maybe I shall see how the site turns out in the next six months.

I know of competitors selling that per month on there direct websites but I agree platforms like Amazon and eBay - There is one company I know doing over £1mm on sales Amazon reseller platform alone per year.

 

[Bailey]

Looks like they might be right

Hmm - it certainly raises the question, given there was no response in the thread until 4 days later when the 5k offer was mentioned.

If someone would like to see it but keep confidential the company details happy to have it verified by a mod.
