If site does not make any revenue DOES NOT mean it does not have any value

    It is really pissing me off when people are offering $10 - $100 for great websites with great designs and features that are put up for sale.

    A lot of websites for sale have very expensive designs that if would be sold just as a design template would cost 5 times more then people offer for those websites.

    How narrow minded (or greedy) should one be offering Mon.Revenue * 10 prices for sites making $30/month for sites that have development costs of $xxxx. Nobody is going to sell you the site for such a cheap prices if they invested in building it a lot more.

    Common people stop being greedy!

    So very true the worth of a site is not entirely based off of revenue at that given moment but also the potential for increased revenue in the future.

    A good example would be a site about some movie that is coming out that has a great domain and is quickly having an expanding user base. Right now it only makes $10/month but 3 months from now it's make $100/month and another 3 months it's $1000/month. But everyone thinks they should pay $100.

    I can see where they're coming from to a degree they're asking why is this guy selling if it's such a great idea and will make money int he future.

    I love when people bid 1$ on 5k+ Sites. It's funny.

    it is funny but it also irritating.. it wastes time.. do they think buyers are so desperate to sell their site that they will drop 75% of its price??
