So they want to pay me 1% commission for finding them a buyer for a completely overpriced domain name? Damn these companies are greedy.

What he said.
LOL...... says
850,000 min bid with a ton of time for bidding..w hat a joke
Matt says
I wouldn’t pay even 85k!
Hell, knowing me, I’d be on the fence if it were 8.5k.
Matt says
Michael, you either put this up to show people how ridiculous or you were paid off by that company. Which one? 😉

Actually hoping these guys will share some of that huge reward of 10K when the domain sells for millions.
LOL
domainbroker says
Is this a joke? $10k fee? More like $85k commission. Good luck.
Rick says
I think this sums it up pretty nicely…
Snoopy says
The commission should be 500k, the name is likely worth low 5 figures so anyone who can find a buyer at 850k is probably adding 800k+ in value.
Mike says
Got one!!
Steve M says
Anyone actually able to convince someone to pay more than 50k (and even that’s being generous) for this name would find themselves playing checkers with Bernie Madoff. 😉

.
simply absurd!!!
just $10k to find a $850k buyer!!!
I think that they should offer, at least, 5% of the final price!!!

BullS says
What a BS!!!
Cartoonz says
This is a disaster waiting to happen.
…and they’ll be waiting for a very long time at that price.

Mike – What’s D&D – Dumb & Dumber????
Ya gotta love the G-Gen (GREED Generation) – always hawking a get rich quick scheme. If you Disaster dudes really want to put $850k in your pockets, splash a cold dose of reality on your faces, get off your behinds and earn it the old fashioned way — do some work or sell something with real value!
Are there any sane people out there who think this domain is worth more than $10k???
