I've had great success selling sites/domains on Sitepoint in the past, but thought I'd give eBay one last fighting chance.

$1,500 for a website that has no rankings (google, alexa) and was just created 7 days ago? I don't think it's worth that at all.

I could understand if you had created an established website... Not only that but I checked out your auction and you state that the previous owner's statistics were "Daily Site Usage - 3,500 Daily Unique Visitors (Global) Daily Ad Revenue - $65.00 (USD) Average.

If that was the case, then no doubt your website (Harry Potter Lounge) would rank high within Google for searches. But wait, searching for Harry Potter Lounge yields no results for your website at all.

Searching up harrypotterlounge.com brings up various results with you trying to sell the domain.. But what I don't understand is why I see some queries that say:

HarryPotterLounge.com - Website FOR SALE!

*HarryPotterLounge.com* This is a brand new website that I just finished developing. It is 100% ready to go. Catch the massive Harry Potter wave now and start raking in advertising dollars right away! I'm willing to sell this site/domain as is. My original plan was to follow through with it, generate dedicated traffic and sell on SitePoint with a starting bid of $2,500. However, I am testing the waters first to see if anyone is interested in taking it from here. The earning potential speaks fo...
Is that the reason why you didn't decide to sell this on sitepoint? People there do their research and know when they come across a bogey.

Seems like you just decided to squat the domain name for a profit, and apparently it's not working out to well.

I'd give you $10.00 for the domain name, and nothing else..

I purchased this domain from the previous owner just over a year ago for $500. The owner didn't even have a website attached to it, but a link farm-type page. That may have something to do with your skewed research results.

This will be the most popular year for Harry Potter and in the right hands, the domain alone could be worth thousands upon thousands. I am 150% confident in my listing and am not in the business of tricking people as you seem to be so defensive of.

I would consider lowering the price then send me a pm if you do this you have to remember the release of the book will only do justice to the domain for a couple of weeks if anything due to it being the last book once the hype has cooled down no more books means all Harry Potter sites die down really.

Am not sure anyone will be willing to pay that price anymore considering in December the site will yield very little search results anyway

Just some friendly advice that I don't think the price will help you get a sale
