    Wow, this is quite a gem!!! Loving the theme, the activity, everything. If only I owned $2,000 to my name, I would definitely pick this up!!! Good luck selling it, though.

    I just completed integrating wordpress + vBulletin and the user comments about 3 minutes ago. Wordpress is now the acting CMS and I'll be posting the articles 1 per day to it that I have que'd up.

    I don't understand how you are arriving at the $1650 buy it now price.

    If it includes the style my offer is $50.

    Just throwing a number out there based on the domain, scripts, custom vBulletin skin and SEO work thats been performed. And it was just a BIN to get rid of it right now for that set price. I'm accepting any reasonable offer lower than that

    PS: also updated the BIN

    Aftermarket domains are NOT like free domains that you can register for $6.95.

    There's a REASON sex.com sold for millions! And almost every dictionary word has been snatched on nearly every TLD.

    Now, I'm not sure what the appraised value of this one would be, but there have been a couple of posts that would offend me here if I were selling it.

    Well unique design without the vbulletin and seo license is a bit much though if you ask me.

    Won't that be worth at least 10x that price in 18 months? Your traffic will be huge soon, at least I would think so.

    Just wait till Super Mario Galaxy 2 hits stores. :P I'm a nintendo fan, and I think the offer the dude made of 50$ is offensive. The domain is a REALLY good one, pretty much a 'wanted' domain, and it has good SEO, just a bit more promotion to those nintendo fans and you'd be made gold. :P I think the skin is REALLY good.

    If I had that kind of money, I would take on it.

    Its worth a bit more if you add those licenses, you really should add them.
    Help the person who is probably wanting to buy it.

    And 2400 internet searches.

    It's not a popular search query. Huge competition for little traffic.

    ditto

    Sometimes you have to eat a loss. I've done it. It happens. It's better than $0. I've also been on the receiving end of offers that are 10% of what I am asking for a site so lets not have comments about how people should be offended. That's a normal part of the negotiating process.

    As for the style cost, if you buy a pool for your house your house value does not go up as much as the cost of the pool.

    For the time being I think you are best off working on the site and generating content for it if you want to sell it for the prices you are asking.

    If you change your mind and are willing to toss in an owned vB license and have some more content please I think that's worth a reply here.

    lol, guys relax. I clearly said make an offer, I didn't say make an offer above X amount or anything so even while offers maybe low or whatever thats fine.

    If I didn't want offers, or if I'd find offers below X amount offensive, I wouldn't have said just make an offer, and would only entertain ones above X amount.

    Who would be responsible the prizes in the contest? Great Nintendo Wii Give-A-Way Contest Details - Nintendo Wii Forums

    Are there any members who are being paid for posting, or are you using any such services?

    Do you have any staff members? If so, are they aware of the possible sale? Would they stay on board afterwords?

    Is the content on the word press side unique?

    Is the .org version included?
