<\/p>\nOnce every year or two, I get an email from somebody claiming to be interested in buying this wonderfully short domain name: eaf.net<\/b>.<\/p>\n
They don’t show any interest in the site content. They just want the short domain name.<\/p>\n
Several years ago, I told one inquirer that I might consider<\/i> selling it for $50,000. \ud83d\ude2f<\/p>\n
He didn’t seem to like that. <\/p>\n
That “modest” price was too high for him. \ud83d\ude44<\/p>\n
And too high for the folks at URL Appraisal<\/a>.<\/p>\n Well, earlier this week another person asked about buying eaf.net!<\/p>\n I haven’t decided what to tell him.<\/p>\n I’d probably take $10,000.<\/span><\/p>\n While I figure it out — and I haven’t really tried much yet — here’s a word of advice to anyone interested in this domain name:<\/p>\n If you’re going to bother emailing about buying eaf.net, make me an offer.<\/b><\/p>\n Otherwise, I think you’re just hoping I don’t know three-letter domain names are valuable. No, I won’t sell it for $500. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n I know, I know — you think a domain name should command a price with no more digits than the domain name has characters. OK, then, I’ll make you a package deal: You can have eaf.net for $500 and godspost.com for $50,000,000.<\/b><\/p>\n Actually, here’s a better package deal: both of those domain names for $150,000. That’s quite the markdown, wouldn’t you say?! \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n Oh. You want me to be serious? Well, I want you<\/i> to be serious also. And I say $500 for eaf.net is not serious.<\/p>\n You say three digits. I’ll say six…and settle for five.<\/p>\n Next bidder?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Once every year or two, I get an email from somebody claiming to be interested in buying this wonderfully short domain name: eaf.net.
