    Quick sales. Prices low. I need rent money so i am getting out of the web design business. I have 3 websites, www.legalstreets.com www.wmnation.com and www.highhobbies.com

    Highhobbies was the main forum but since I will open a customs shop called HighHobbies i need to keep the domain name. I registered a new domain name a few months back and transferred the forum to legalstreets. Highhobbies is not for sale. All posts, members, and threads have been moved to legalstreets and all the members said they like it better as it is now.

    Since legalstreets.com was highhobbies.com and i had to move it, i will keep the links up on www.highhobbies.com front page (the only page) for 6 months, 12 months if you buy it now.

    Link submission to directories and search engines will complete in a week or so, highhobbies was a PR3 and still is, but Both legalstreets and wmnation have no PR because they are new domains, not new sites. Predicted PR3 for legalstreets when google crawls, and PR1 or PR2 for wmnation.

    Hits have been down a bit because I have no time to maintain anymore.

    Highhobbies is not for sale.
    WmNation starting bid $20 and bid increments of $5 please.
    Legalstreets starting bid $100 and bid increments of $10 please.

    BUY IT NOWS:
    Wmnation: $100.00
    Legalstreets: $750.00
    Buy Both: $820.00 total.

    Stats for highhobbies the day of transfer: http://legalstreets.com/hh.jpg
    We had server problems in FEB and MARCH so we closed the forum.
    When we came back online we put a contest up and hits flourished again.

    Stats for wmnation today: http://www.legalstreets.com/wm.jpg
    WmNation open for a little less than a month.

    Income: 3 Banners rotated last month for $30 a piece
    1 Button rotated last month for $15
    Total for legalstreets.com = $105.00 WITHOUT ADSENSE!
    Estimated adsense is $30 a month EASILY making it approc $130 a month.

    Income for wmnation: None, but predicted $10 a month on adsense?

    I also have a pending advertiser. I will send address for you to email them to ask for advertising for 1,3, or 6 months.


    Please ask questions.

    Post like this: BID: $XXX or BIN: __sitename__

    I will transfer files for you with temporary ftp access. Legalstreets domain is on ionhosting.com (my hosting company) and it will have a free instant push. Wmnation is on godaddy and will be pushed free. I will send files or transfer for you.

    Additional stats for the forums:

    Legalstreets: Forum Stats 2305 Posts in 360 Topics by 75 Members.
    WmNation: 129 Posts in 55 Topics by 11 Members.

    It is still avaliable, $210 is the bid, BIN's were negotiated and then members backed out twice.

    5th page bump...

    Anyone? $100 revenue without adsense. Predicted $50 based on hits alone.

    BIN lowered to $600 for legalstreets.com (6 months current revenue) and $60 for wmnation.com




    If you buy legalstreets for the BIN i will include wmnation for free and LIFETIME links for both on www.highhobbies.com PR3

    legalstreets is an interesting looking forum, but IMO your BIN is too high - even at the lower price. I have difficult accepting it's made $100/month unless you're talking about link sales, which is a dangerously unstable factor to account for with a brand new site.

    The site has problems in that it has little traffic, little activity, and any new owner would have to build up momentum on a new forum themselves.

    Also, there's a lot of low grade content on there - approx 22% has nothing to do with cars, and approx 18% is just site news and suggestions etc.

    Then lots of your apparent content is just single links to other sites - nothing that search engines are really going to pick up on at all.

    That's not to mention that's basically bulked up with forum posting services.

    So you basically have a relatively new and lifeless forum with around 1300 posts of little content.

    IMO you should be looking at a much lower BIN for a sale, but that's just my opinion.

    I have never used a posting service on legalstreets.

    BUY IT NOWS: LOWERED AGAIN!
    Wmnation: $50.00 (No bids, $50 firm BIN)
    Legalstreets: $300.00 (3 months revenue without adsense because i have not maintained the site in a week.)

    Also the money is made from top banner sales, not link sales. The forum recieves alot of hits, and was a PR3 before transfer to new domain.
