    The Hydrostream.com domain name - who else is being contacted?

    I'm wondering if any of you here have been contacted about purchasing the hydrostream.com internet domain name. I ask because a domain broker company has been asking me if I wanted to purchase it for a long time now. I think it would be a nice domain to have to but I also think the sellers have drastically overvalued it. To give you an idea, the asking price was originally more than $30,000. Yes, thirty-thousand dollars. The price has recently been reduced to $15,000, but I think that is just wildly optimistic. I think the domain may be useful for maybe other business ventures (which would be a tragedy). I've been planning on making a very large database tribute to HydroStream and Howard Pipkorn, so sure, I'd love the domain name to go with it, but that price is just way too high, sadly.

    I was thinking half that and we even have a couple of Hydrostreams.

    I have a friend who buys and resells domain names. They often set a price high to feel out the market. If it does not sell after some time they are very open to offers. Even low balls.

    So one year I pulled into Rockingham dragway for early parking . The owner , Steve Earwood was walking around .. I drove by him slowly and asked .. Hey Steve , how much did Vince McMahon pay you for .. TheRock.com ???
    He said , whatever your thinking , double it .. then add some and you'll be close . I gave him the thumbs up as I drove away …

    WWE also owns … PayPerView.com

    Would be really cool to see a fully dedicated website to them. Or completely overhaul the .org site. Although sadly the traffic probably wouldn't be there like it is here.
