I have a company interested in a domain name I own. They have been bugging me through a negotiation platform called domainagents for about a month. I declined offers of $2,000 and $3,000, but they have countered today with $5000.
I know a lot of your are going to say, $5000 for something you paid $10 for? Yes please!
I have had this short 5 letter domain since 2000 and I use it for all of my email. This means I will have to move everything to a new email. This sounds trivial, but think about the possibility that they will be able to grab my old email address and receive any emails I forget to transfer. A lot of sites have the ability to send passwords to a email address, so if I forget to update some old account that I haven't used in years, like menswarehouse for example, they could theoretically get my password and info for that account.
It wasn't worth the trouble at $2000, and $3000 was tempting but I declined several days ago. Today they offer $5000 and I keep thinking....$5000 is real money ....
What do you think I should do?
