    PM sent!

    Cheers avis, again, Pm sent!

    The overall number of replies I'm receiving against the amount of PM's I'm sending out is actually very low.

    This post is a serious offer so I'm assuming that either the site's just not to a lot of your tastes or perhaps the price I'm looking for is simply out of a lot of your leagues.

    To narrow this down and cut out the 'browsers' let me add this, I'm looking for a 5 (five) figure sum minimum

    Thanks everyone for your continued interests... and I will provide the necessary stats to back it up all no problem - it all checks out ;)

    Regards,

    Rich.

    Perhaps you're all afraid of the 'unknown' in such an old, active and niche forum but really there's not THAT much too it and I would of course be there to nurse the new owner(s) through the early days.. for a small charge of course ;)

    To get any real serious contenders/offers has been harder than I thought it would be, I'd like to know why that was.. any suggestions?

    It's probably due to this:

    The original appraisal was pretty good. If you're serious about selling, then you may want to read it again.

    Does he mean 4 XXXX or 5 XXXXX - was that a typo?.... cause there is NO way that forum get a bid of 10,000+ lol

    Someone could hire a programmer full time to make a site that tops his handily with $10,000 to invest - then spend 2k on advertising to get more traffic than his...

    Based on his monthly earnings and other intangibles id say somewhere 3-5k tops - That is well over a full years earnings...which I assume are adsense based. The forum is poorly designed, looks cluttered and needs major overhaul....

    Thanks for you input Brian.

    No there wasn't marqpdx!

    Hi Calven, some interesting points..

    There's nothing wrong in life with setting your sights high and yes I'm biased but to I don't think a 5-figure sum is by any means unrealistic :) I'm aslso sure that most forum administrators who have been involved for in their sites for anywhere near 3 years and has totally devoted most of his/her spare time will agree, it's hard to put a price on your baby so to speak. I hear what you are saying about hiring a programmer etc, but that's all could and maybes, this is raw material here :)

    I thankyou for you own brief mini-evaluation.. I don't want to turn this post into a 'review' or 'appraisal' of the site (as I know now that this isn't the place for that) but if you would be so kind to elaborate more on and I quote "The forum is poorly designed, looks cluttered and needs major overhaul." I'd be very greatful.

    Kind Regards,

    Rich
