Accepting offers by PM only... private sale. IDN will be sold to highest bidder at my discretion. Escrow service or PayPal will be in order.

I have other quality IDN's up my sleeve... If I have a good experience, I will place more for sale here at idnforums... since I'm a fan.


Edited 4-25-2006... Thanks for all of your input that has made this an "interesting" thread full of differentiated opinions... whether good or bad :P I'm still accepting offers... and I'm closer to reality now... though I do like dreaming Giant and TheFabFive! Sorry huronargentino, I think I'll go with Alphamale's offer! So much for a good experience... but I must admit I'm still a fan here at IDNFORUMS... somebody show a fellow member some love!!!

Nice. Looking for a 1,500,000% return on your investment in 1 day. What's that annualized? ... my calculator just busted!

TM here
0$ for me. At least dont open promote this, so you can make some money while yamaha dont bother...

[idnceo]

cmon grubstaker, TM are many still available. thats why in the first place u found domains with such ovt. available. reason, nobody want them and the few who take them i dont think are interested in paying such sum when u can buy several countries or great cities in .com with less money! $XXX.XXX?

Sometimes we just have to admire the ability of dreaming of humans', especially the height of it :-).

[mulligan]

C&D's wont take long to start appearing and people like the above company, disney, et al will take these name away.
I would take my $xxx,xxx and buy a few countries (In six/eight months $xxx,xxx wont even get you a small hamlet....)

Yes, our capacity to dream is extraordinary. It's our grasp of reality that need work sometimes .

[gammascalper]

At least this means that Japanese is about picked clean... there are officially no more generic domains!

The problem it's a .NET - Yamaha won't want a .NET for it's website. No big corp will use a .NET.

Doesn't leave much purpose for such a domain..... one possibility is a hobby website for a Yamaha enthusiast.

In the worst case, grubstaker, I will buy it off you for $20. Let me know.

They are going to want BOTH the .net and .com. This one is probably a TM hot potato, especially being in Japan.

Being that "Yamaha" is - correct me if I'm wrong - a surname in Japan, there are probably plenty of ways to use this name in a non-TM-infringing way.

I'm just can't for the life of me think of one that would make it worth shelling out $nnn,nnn for the name in the first place.

Not in Katakana, it isn't. The only Yamaha(s) spelled that way are companies.
