A handful of unestablished, but great domains

    I'm considering working with a client who owns the following domains and wants to see how much they are worth. Can anyone give me a ballpark?

    amenamen.com
    a1jesus.com
    a1rings.com
    azrings.com
    buygifts101.com
    buygiftsaz.com
    ebuyaz.com
    eshopaz.com
    giftsaz.com
    shoppingaz.com

    Thanks,
    Chris

    I'd guess the amenamen.com is the most valuable, maybe $100 to $150. I could be completely off though. The rest are probably in the $15 - $20 range. The real questions are how old are these and how many uniques a day do they get? Once you have that info it will be easier to estimate their value.

    They are very old (registered around 1998, I believe). Also, unless I misunderstood him, I believe amenamen.com (which is a PR3) gets about 3K visitors per month (with just an "under construction" page up). He has links on some high traffic, related sites.

    I think even $15-20 range is pushing it. Majority are reg. fee. (Well disregard that if they are truly old and have had websites up for their lifespan)

    Really? Don't you think some of them (amenamen, shoppingaz, giftsaz, a1rings especially) are reasonably short and easy to remember/market? That has to be worth something!

    If amenamen.com is eight years old and getting 100 uniques a day then I has some value above reg fee.

    Amenamen is nice and brandable; and if 8 years old and has established, on-topic backlinks, then sure, it is certainly worth something. Without doing any research on it, if it has existed for that whole time, then I'd say mid-XXX+, low-XXXX if it has relevant traffic.

    The others, well, yea... not so interesting. Is that "AZ" as in Arizona? If so, you're already limiting your market to a fraction of the US population. A1Rings... meh... short and memorable but not brandable or impressive.. IMO, number/letter domains sound like you couldn't think of anything interesting to call the site.

    amenamen.com is the only one that I believe has any name value - although the age of the others may add some value.

    Thanks for the input, everyone. I think az is more like "A to Z".

    No. It's a pretty awkward suffix for a URL IMO.
