I recently bought a domain for $10,000 and have yet to use it, but since I have been buying sweet domain names this year I have noticed a rapid increase in sleazy emails trying to get me to give up my domain name for nothing or less. If you respond showing any knowledge they do not respond. They just keep email spamming until they find a couple ignorant people. It feels like domain purchase request emails are the new link exchange email.

I got your information off whois and I apologise for contacting you out of
the blue like this.

The reason for my writing is that I’m looking to start another website in addition to: pokemoncard.info. Actually I’m looking to build a much better
website with more features and capabilities. And I think [your $10,000 domain name] would be a great fit for what I have in mind. So I was wondering if you would consider selling the domain to me. I’m not under any great time pressure at the moment, but if in the next 6 weeks you do feel like selling I ask you to please contact me and hopefully we can come to an agreement.

If not, and you want to keep the site, please again accept my apologies for mailing you out of the blue and good luck with whatever you have planned for the site.

Thank you for your time and hopefully I’ll hear from you soon.

Best regards,

P.S. Just to set your mind at rest – it’s not another Pokemon site I’m building, and this isn’t mass spam.
