Hi Buddy, Great to see you here and glad you like what you’ve read. I’m sure I’m not necessarily a better writer than you, you’re just being hard on yourself.

Good to know you’re keen to give flipping a go again and I’m happy to help you.

Now about that Mac….you know you want one you just won’t admit it, lol!

Hey Michelle,

Well, after reading through SEVERAL of your posting, I believe you have convinced me to try Flipping again. You still haven’t convinced me to switch to a mac but I will give it another try.

BTW…I like your site. You’re a much better writer than me!

Buddy

Ah I c, good that you made some money then!

The avatar/gravatar thing took me a while to figure out too…. now you know.

Yeah I just meant about the avatar thing lol.
And actually yes I did make a profit from it…as I had just spent money on the domain name and other things come from the site when I had it (like affiliate advertising, etc.)

Hi Tonessa, nice work on the sale, were you able to make any profit on that though?

Not sure what you mean about signing up for my blog? If you mean for your picture to appear next to your comments, you need to set up an avatar at http://en.gravatar.com/.

Once you’ve done that you simply enter the email address you assign to your gravatar account into the relevant fields when you go to submit a comment on my blog or any other blogs that use the gravatar set up too.

I’m trying to sign up to your blog but I’m not sure on how to go about doing that (as you can tell my picture’s not showing up so i don’t know how to get that up).

And your ebook helped me make a sale today…it was $25 but I’m just stoked that I even sold THAT particular site I had. He didn’t even care for the wordpress material…so mainly I made $25 just by selling a domain if you look at it like that. Thank you lots!!!

Tonessa thanks so much for the feedback, it’s wonderful to hear that you feel things are clearer now after reading QuikCash. Very kind of you to take the link around in your sig, I hope plenty of others find just as much value in the content I offer as you do.

Hi Michelle,

I came back to tell you thank you very much. I downloaded your ebook the last time I was on here and I actually read it. I think you pretty much saved me for the fact that I basically saw exactly what I was doing wrong. As for the Flippa price thing, I took that thought and determined maybe it is good to pay for a listing…to show that you’re really serious about what you’re doing. I’m currently 19 years old and because I spend most of my time on the computer, I figured why not. I’ve read numerous ebooks, but I have NEVER had a good understanding of it until after I read yours. You were crystal clear on everything and I don’t know how much thanks I could possibly give you. I’m definitely going to take your site link around with me and stick it in my signature on a forum that I’m pretty frequent on. I’m pretty sure a great deal of people would get better use not just from your ebook, but also from this site in general.

Great discussion! As a flipper myself in both the low end and high end category, I think Flippa needs to themselves immerse themselves in the process as Luke recently did.

Because this will enable them to understand the process better, from listing a site to buying, selling, paying, transferring, etc.

The more the Flippa guys themselves (directly) know about the buying and selling process, the better marketplace we will all have.

Keep the Flippa talk coming. Cheers!

Glad you liked this post Brendan.

I agree that site flipping is in its infancy particularly when it comes to the profile it has as a ‘viable’ business model. It will be interesting to watch as it grows in popularity in the future.

I had a quick look around your blog, you have a lot of interesting content there!

Thanks for stopping by and leaving your thoughts here.

Great post with great research on a great topic. I feel that the entire site flipping industry is still young and there will be a lot of development in the near future with more investment. Flippa.com is doing a great job of making you feel secure throughout the buying process, which is a great value. I too look forward to seeing what happens.

Forest, I’m not sure that that would encourage quality listings on Flippa.

Oh goodie, Flippa are listening…..

…. In that case I have another really good suggestion. If our sites don’t sell then Flippa should buy the from us for double our BIN…. What do you guys think of thta

Thanks for stopping by to leave a comment Luke. It’s great to see that Flippa are keen to know what their customers think and that you’re willing to seriously consider our ideas.
