Daz35 0 Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 Wow!

DJ Marky Marc 0 Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 I think the law has changed and its no longer allowed to register a domain name to sell it for profit, if your company is xyz you can have xyz.com if its not being used but you can't buy it and sell it for more money..... <a href="http://www.djassociates.org"><img src="http://www.djassociates.org/anims/compres_banner.gif" alt="Join the DJ Associates Disc Jockey Association" border="0" width="468" height="60"></a> Link to post Share on other sites
High Fidelity 0 Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 When I was looking to register "highfidelity.com or co.uk", I can't remember which, they were both unused but registered and they wanted something like £4000. Needless to say, I decided on another domain name. Quitting Smoking & Drinking doesn't make you live longer It just feels like it. Link to post Share on other sites
cookiecat 0 Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 Surely if I owned ads.com and someone wanted to buy it who is going to say how much you can sell it for.If I paid £5 for it why should I sell it for the same price if someone is desparate for it. Supply and demand. Will it not be like vehicle number plates? Something witty goes here.. Link to post Share on other sites
DJ Marky Marc 0 Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 register your own domain names for a few £'s the company who gives out the names is a non profit making organisation. dont get duped by web sites offering the names for more money...... first thing to do is a "who is" look up on the name then if its not taken you can have it and its the same price for any name. <a href="http://www.djassociates.org"><img src="http://www.djassociates.org/anims/compres_banner.gif" alt="Join the DJ Associates Disc Jockey Association" border="0" width="468" height="60"></a> Link to post Share on other sites
YourBigEvent 0 Posted September 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 So IF (OR WHEN http://www.dj-forum.co.uk/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif ) I brought www.ads.com for £1.5m, then decided to give up discos I couldn't sell it for a profit. Bad business move. .....but what do I know ? Your Big Event Office:01803 813540 Direct: 0797 0717 448 e.mail:info@yourbigevent.co.uk Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisPointon 0 Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 QUOTE I think the law has changed and its no longer allowed to register a domain name to sell it for profit Take a look at Ebay, under the domain names section.
