Interesting topic, and I have absolutely no insight as to the value of a particular domain name. But I do have a client who owns hundreds of thousands of domain names. He buys and sells them in large bundles. Many, maybe even most, he’s registered himself. Some of them he’s had for many years. His holding costs are in the tens of thousands every year. He made a big sale last year of a big bundle of pot related domain names that he began registering over a decade ago, and had added some regularly. I don’t know how big that one sale was, but he described it as big, and his total sales were close to $200K for the year. So I’m guessing it was more than $25,000.
And it’s his side business. Main business he’s in is internet marketing. Weird thing is, he’s totally off the grid. His credit report is blank. He has no internet presence. All of his mail, personal and roughly 15 businesses go to a forwarder in North Dakota.
