    Ok so in the news we have read the owner of dp being sued by Ebay,

    If it all goes t*ts up for Shaun do you think Digital Point will be up for sale in the next few months?

    No.. why would it?
    I assume he was smart enough to save money. Having to sell his #1 income source would be a little unlikely.

    Shawn is a freakin' millionaire. He can take the hit and still be able to fly in his private jet.

    Quite funny that about these posts, it had pop up again and again. If Shawn really needs money, putting a few banners here and there and allowing for the sales of stickies etc, he would have got far more income than what is the current situation now. You don't see him even bother to monetize DP although a huge potential is there.

    Not trying to get off-topic, just really curious.. did he want to buy a fake degree or invest the money into going to college? (sorry, I'm a little nosy)

    I don't think it would... if he can afford to use a revenue share on here, i'm sure he can take the hit... i hope it doesn't get sold

    I think he sold for 200k, more than enough to cover for his psychology degree.

    I wouldn't be surprised if this place sold in the next few months. But if Shawn and the site is in legal trouble it will be hard to find a buyer.

    v7n was a pale shadow of DP and is sold at a reasonable price of 200k. DP can easily go up 10x the price of v7n.

    I'd buy the site for 1 million and then pimp it out a bit with paid subscriptions, a couple more ads, etc...Shawn isn't even trying with DP, this place is easily worth the low 7 figures
