    I don't know of any reason other than the site is still fairly new. When I bought it just about 2 mos. ago it was a couple of weeks old. I havent been very aggressive with the site. I bought it and basically forgot about it for the last two months. I have done next to nothing to promote the site other than buying a single text link.

    Hi TCR, sorry about that. I saw your PM and hadn't responded yet.

    I think I want to let it run for a while. I'll set a BIN either tonight or tomorrow morning.

    Your bid of $50 noted.

    thx.

    I originally paid $200 for the site. Do you really need stats for 10 visitors a day? I can post the proof of traffic if you really need to see it.


    For those interested, here is the sales thread from when I bought it.

    thx.

    Yeah traffic stats would be good - 300 uniques a month isn't bad.

    Stats can be viewed here. These are for Sept.

    The site ranks #2 on MSN for Jeep Gladiator and it appears that is where most of its traffic comes from.

    AWstats reports 116 links from MSN in the "Links from an Internet Search Engine" section.

    Thanks for the bid Gtech and xlguy.

    Current high bid is xlguy at $70

    I think there may be issues with having a trademark in the domain name. I'll bow out now and leave this to GT, thanks.

    With 10 visitors a day I would be surprised if they had noticed it yet. Did you research the legal standing of owning a trademark in a domain? I'm not an expert, so perhaps Google for it but I'm nervous now, thanks.

    xlguy - I'm not sure why your nervous, you've already backed out of the auction. No offense, but it you arent interested in bidding on the auction, the thread doesn't need your comments. People here know how to do their own research.

    respectfully
