I’ve a bone to pick and it tastes like Toblerone. The sticky Swiss chocolate is among my favorite brands but it’s definitely not the easiest to chew.
Back to domains. I just completed a nice mid $x,xxx sale with a Swiss buyer. He put faith back in me with regards to Swiss domainers or investors.
Three years ago a Swiss buyer ended up becoming a deadbeat for a $7,000 acquisition of a LLL.net. He came up with a lot of excuses about not paying the money he agreed to. Sedo banned him and a year later he was free again to roam and even had the audacity to place a new, lowball offer on the same domain he didn’t pay for. I had to raise hell at Sedo and he was banned for life this time.
Onto Swiss domainer #2 – he’s still forming the company while sitting on an $8,000 Sedo bill. My patience is legendary but my lawyer will be swift.
Swiss domainer #3 did it the right way: placed an offer, negotiated my counter-offer and closed on the sale in minutes. He paid the bill and in two days’ time the exchange completed.
For a domain I paid less than $100 to acquire the deal was awesome. You’ll find out about the domain and the selling price in tomorrow’s DNJournal.
