    Hi all,

    I'm new to domain buying. I just bought www.froy.com from Sedo for $500. It was a fixed price so I could not make an offer.

    I am an end user and will be creating a fashion/design retail site. As you probably know, branding is particularly important in this space, so I wanted something short, memorable, classy, and easily pronounceable/spell-able. Consider the competition: Zara, Tobi, Fab, Gilt, Saks, DWR, Polo, Dior, Isme, Izod, Boss, Ecko, etc.

    What do you think the value of the domain is? Did I get a fair deal? I have 5 days to pay and fully intend to do so.

    P.S. I originally didn't even consider buying a 4 letter given insane prices for bad URLs. I planned for a 5 letter URL (Elyan, Veres, or Zaler) before Froy popped up and I jumped!

    Instead of purchase domain , you should have to buy website. Domain name should be whatever, you website must be top ten in alexa.
