Back in the swing of things today. And the list is back to full strength. I took some people to the Cubs Cardinals game this weekend and I am not quite sure how the average American can afford to go to a pro baseball game.I used to go to 30 or 40 games a season but it wasn’t anywhere near the cost it is today. But that was 30 years ago when the Bleacher Seats were cheap. I was in St. Louis and had private club tickets which were a few hundred dollars each. Had to pay gas to drive 3 hours to the game. Parking was $30. A beer was $10 to $15 a glass depending on what you got. Brats and Italians were $10. Peanuts $5. For a group of 4 that was having lunch at the stadium and a few beers it really adds up. Don’t get me wrong, I had a great time and to be able to get out and enjoy a relaxing day at the park is fantastic, but I’m just not used to seeing those kind of prices outside of DisneyWorld. I actually think this cost more than Disney. It ran $800 for the afternoon for me to take 4 people. Again, well worth it to me, and I am fortunate enough to be able to spend that kind of money in a few hours, I just don’t think most of America can. I’m sure there are cheaper tickets, and you don’t have to park close or buy and food or drinks, but the having a game dog and a beer is a big part of the day at the park. It also explains why everyone at the stadium looked exactly the same. Because they were the ones that can afford to go.
I’m sure I’ll get blasted for being the rich guy that complains about prices but regardless of how much money I have I always analyze cost vs value. Places like Disney are easy to justify. Its a once or twice in a lifetime experience and cost is thrown out the window. It costs a ton of money to keep Disney as clean and perfect as it is. Big city bars have to pay for big city real estate costs so you trade high priced alcohol for location and crowd. I imagine pro sports fits in that same category. Its an experience you can’t get anywhere else. The talent on the field is expensive. The stadium is top of the line and cost hundreds of millions. I’m also sure that all of the above has been analyzed over and over again and prices are set at perfect levels to maximize profits. In short, they’ve done their homework. Because if people weren’t willing to pay those prices then they wouldn’t charge so much.
Lets swing this back to domains. The cost of marketing products is expensive. If you’re going to charge high dollars for your products you are going to have to spend on marketing. A national TV ad in prime time STARTS at $200K by the time you throw in cost of production and ad time. That’s for one commercial. It’s just so easy to justify six figures for a name that is going to increase your new customer take in. You put all that money in so its important to have something memorable for them to go to. If you have an understanding of what your domain could possibly save or make for a company then its easy to ask a high price. I don’t have a large number of names that would enable a company to earn hundreds of thousands or millions more. But I have a few. Thinking that all my names provide great value to companies would be naive. But all provide some value so I price them accordingly. I am still not very good at getting the most out of my prices. But I am learning. Right now my beers are at $6. I used to charge $4. I’m hoping to get $10 for my beer soon Here are today’s names. Click through to see the current price

Dispute.com
Already at 36k.
What jackass let that domain expire ?!
Yep, easy free money for GD.
Though I think 36k is a bit on the high side, even though EstiBot is 93k.
3k-5k domain in my opinion.
What would be the valuable build out for Dispute.com ?
Dictionary word, yes. High revenue build out, NO.
I guess they are collecting domain for dictionary word portfolio..It could be worthy in future.
