How to Sell This Premium Domain Name

Question

Hi HNer,I have owned a premium domain name for over 12 years. I purchased it 12 years ago for a printing on-demand project, but that project has been indefinitely postponed.I need cash flow to bootstrap another project, so I'm looking for the best way to sell this domain name for a fair price. Godaddy has appraised it at over $3,000, but that seems low to me. I could wait until I'm ready to start the project, but I'm not sure if that's the best use of my time. I could use the cash flow now for other things.The domain name is: printive.comPlease advise:- What price point seems fair for this domain ? - What would be the best approach to sell it ?Thank you PS: No I am not a domain squatter.

Maybe it is just me, but it doesn't "sound" like something that anyone would pay a premium for, given that someone is already using printive as the name of a company (and has printive.net).
Unless them, of course.
They could be interested to "upgrade" to a .com.

It's difficult to know. For a couple of 2-letter GTLDs of mine I've had suggestions/offers a bit higher than that. I had a much higher offer for one, but when I started the AML ('anti-money-laundering') process at the suggestion of my lawyer, everything went very quiet...

I don&rsquo;t use godaddy so I&rsquo;m not sure how their system works. But if they will give you $3k for it I&rsquo;d take it and run. If that is just their suggested price that you list it on the marketplace for, they are being awfully optimistic.Unless printive.net wants to buy it, I can&rsquo;t see anybody paying that much for the name.

Fair price? $0.Best approach? Let it expire and cease to spend time worrying about it. You can find better uses for your time.Even when there was enforced artificial scarcity in domain names, the market for them was far more illusion than reality. Today, that "market" is totally a propaganda technique: "make money fast with no effort!"

This isn't a premium domain name. Its worth a lot less than you think, maybe nothing.

printive.net might want it.> Godaddy has appraised it at over $3,000, but that seems low to me.The automated tool? Means nothing, it's only worth what someone is willing to pay, not what an automated tool tells you

$3k seems a bit high to me.
