What Is The Value Of Dermatology.com?
Published June 24, 2007 in Domain Names.

I was reading through the comments area of Frank’s post regarding Targeted TRAFFIC NYC auction and could not help but see the discussion within the comment area regarding Dermatology.com

There is no chance the name is worth that kind of money.

Before you say dermatology.com isn’t worth 4.5M, do you have any idea what the skin care market is worth?

Then Franky added
I think the name is valuable.. but 4.5mm is getting fully valued imo. Most people don’t look for that word.. they type ’skin care’ or specific ailments like ‘wrinkles’.

What is the value of such a domain? Isn’t the value exactly what the seller will agree to sell at the time a buyer agrees to buy, the “meeting of the minds” moment, not a penny less, not a penny more? Is it worth 4.5M or 5M, or even 10M? How about 30M or 100M? If a buyer has a plan in mind to turn this domain to a billion dollars property within six months, can it be a 100M domain? How about two billions within one year? or three years?

See, I believe the value is in what the buyer has in mind for it, and in most cases, to the outside world and especially to the seller, this is unknown.

I do not like appraisal services. I do not like to speculate on values as none of it is more real then the biggest illusions the world has ever seen, especialy as we are talking about rarity items, items who in all reality have no replacement, no second. In my opinion the guesses of the value of domains are as good as guesses for the values of a Van Gogh, a Michelangelo, or a Picasso.
