Searching for Domains

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Nothing and I mean nothing pisses me off more then people who buy mass domains and just mark them!.  A buddy of mine and myself are starting up another business and spend hours searching for the perfect domain name.  Everything single name that we can up with pointed to a parked domain!.  I know that people have to hustle and get that money, but come on!  sometimes enough is enough!.   No one wants to pay you $5000 for a domain that is not ranked nor has even 1 backlink.  I ended up getting almost that domain name,  only one letter off.

Now the moral of the story is this, if you are going to buy and sell domains do it quick and at least do something with the domain while you have it!.    I wasted 4 good hours of my life last night faced with disappointment!

Please God why would someone sell this and who in their right mind would buy it?

#2 Next we have Windows 95 that features Microsoft plus… OHHHHH!! this thing is like 13 years old, why would anyone install this?

Windows 95

I can only imagine the PC that this will be installed on.

#3 The next piece of work is a Windows 2000 CD. This is the same stuff that I spend many hours cleaning out of server rooms and throwing it in the trash because its old and just sucks.

The Strangest Items Ever To Sell or tried to sell On EBay

Sold for - $3.25

For your consideration, is a totally bizarre looking, Michigan grown carrot. The carrot looks like a hand with it’s thumb sticking out hitchhiking. It is looking for a new home. So please help it find one. The carrot measures approximately 5 1/2? long x 3? wide and 1 1/2? thick. I dug this carrot out this morning,but it will not last forever. Ask questions if you have them.

 

The Holiest… and Most Expensive… Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Sold for - $28,000

It is hard to believe someone paid thousands of dollars for this sandwich… but someone did!

A woman who said her 10-year-old grilled cheese sandwich bore the image of the Virgin Mary will be getting a lot more bread after the item sold for $28,000 on eBay.

GoldenPalace.com, an online casino, confirmed that it placed the winning bid, and company executives said they were willing to spend “as much as it took” to own the 10-year-old half-sandwich with a bite out of it.

 

Holy Towel
Sold for - $66.00

Some people have pointed out that this imprint seems more demonic than angelic. I think its subject to interpretation. I think its an angel, albeit a dark one. It does look a little like bat girl or a kitten dominatrix but it also could be the black madonna and all three of the figures I have just mentioned are magical and cool. I still think this imprint is divine and I do think that it is a worthwhile towel to own.



Fly To Work

Sold for - $131,700

 

Well, you could fly to work if you perfected the commuter plane’s technology from the 1980s. It sold for close to $132,000 and disappointingly it doesn’t even fly.

 

Elvis’ Bottle of Water
Sold for - $455

You don’t have to go to eBay to buy a bottle of water. But you do have to if it ‘may possibley’ have a slight chance of belonging to Elvis, or he looked at it once - maybe! And at only $455, what a deal!

Checker Autobus
Sold for - $4,850

If you have 15 kids and are on a budget, which presumably you would be with that many kids to feed, this is the family vehicle for you.

 

Smiling French Fry
Sold for - $2.09

French fries are good and tasty and apparently happy… The winner of this happy fry paid around $2 for it. You could buy lots of non-smiling fries from McDonalds for that… it’s up to you though. Hot, fresh non-smiling fries or one cold, old, smiling fry.

Duck Shaped Peanut
Sold for - $0.99

Everyone wants a duck shaped peanut. Right?

 

Get Your Cornflakes on eBay…One at a Time
Sold for- £1.20

This eBay auction was for a single corn flake. Don’t let the photo mislead you because it was for a single flake, not an entire box.

 

The Giant Chee-toh
Sold for - $180 (But donated for free)

Believe it or not but this giant chee-toh was listed on eBay. It received many bids before it was eventually taken off and donated to a small farming town. They are using it as a tourist attraction. - You really couldn’t make this stuff up!

 

Foreheads… the Billboards of the Future?
Sold for - $322

A US man from Omaha, Nebraska, auctioned off 30 days of ad space on his forehead. Believe it or not, but he had plenty of interest and the “spot” was sold for $322 (£171).

 

My Spotted Dick in the Can
Sold for - $18.50

And it only sold for $18.50. What a deal! What is canned spotted dick anyway?

 

Is that a Dead Rat?
Sold for - $6.50

No, it’s just driftwood that looks like a dead rat. Everyone’s idea of a cool home accessory.

 

A Gold Dead Rat
Sold for - $42.95

And if you are really into dead rats you might as well have a gold charm, too…

 

A Real, Live Kidney
Sold for - $0

Ok, so this one didn’t sell. But, it could have! Lots of people need a kidney, but most of them probably don’t have $2.5 million to buy it. That’s probably the only reason it didn’t sell though!

 

The $3000 French Toast
Sold for - $3154.00

This is seriously ridiculous. Someone paid more than $3000 for a piece of French toast that Justin Timberlake took a bite out of.Imagine how much it would have been if he’d eaten it all!

 

Butter PDA
Sold for - $105

Seriously, it’s a 50-pound butter PDA. You could do a lot of bread buttering with that.
