Other than eBay, I need some good auction sites.. that sell or should sell complete websites (On The Net and ready to go).

I know straying away from eBay is not good.. but I got a sense of adventure...

Thanks

Well, this isn't an auction site, but I've seen some pretty decent sites offered for sale here - http://www.gethighforums.com/gethigh.forums/action::topiclist/forum::Forum19/

They have just recently changed their forum software, and in the process they lost the last 2 weeks worth of posts. But just pop in every so often. You might find the odd gem for sale... :)

It's unfortunate that they lost so much data from their database at GetHighForums. They had sooooo many threads that talked about good places to buy/sell sites.

The only other forum that I know where you can see sites for sale is at http://www.geekvillage.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=61

Makes you wonder why they even start the thread...

Based on the threads I've been reading, looks like you're on a bit of a rampage looking to buy some new sites, huh?

Are you sure you don't have oil money backing you? :D

Hey, make me an offer on my site... j/k :D

Good guess, I got $10.. :D. I was smart.. I re-invested, and got a mini dip :eek:
This rate I could buy all the sites I want...

Actually, I just have some boxing day money left over.. you know how it is. Advertise a sale then change it when you ask about it.

My Budget's a couple thousand 5k's a the ABSOLUTE most.

Maybe that will get some emails? I guess you have to wave the money before you get noticed

You should find some good bargains nowadays.

About 9 months ago I sold one of my sites - a retail site - for $17,000.00. Sounds good, but if I was selling it 2 years earlier before the big bust, I likely would've gotten 5 times that... :eek:

So there are definitely some good buys out there...

Point me. Sure there are, but sometimes it gets you so frustrated that you want to strike something. :(.
If only that seller would email me back, make my day/week.

:D
