**PREMIUM** IDN Auction Unicode: 瘦身.com Punycode: xn--suy063c.com "瘦身" is the Chinese phrase for "thin body/weight loss". This is the local phrase for the VERY POPULAR female slimming/dieting/weight loss industry in China. A Google Image search for this phrase will verify this and show you the incredible breadth of products catering to this industry. Basic Facts: - 41.8 million results in Baidu.com. - 34.7 million results in Google.com. - Google Trends report: http://tinyurl.com/thinbody. Compare this with other highly searched Chinese phrases and you can see that this phrase is consistently and widely searched throughout the year, every year (women will always be obsessed with their weight, the world over!) - In addition to China, significant traffic from Taiwan and Hong Kong. Roche Laboratories own “weightloss.com” and Americans alone spend an annual $35 billion on weight loss products (source: CBS). With rising affluence among the Chinese and an already huge population, the future value of this domain name cannot be underestimated. Reserve price range indication: $xxxx Payment only by Escrow.com

rolf, what price?

[rolf]

Hi gamma,

I'll leave that to the buyer to announce as I'm not sure if he wants this released. I have not asked him.

Some hard bargaining was done by both sides

btw In the end, I sold it via forums and not Snap.
