Contest: Valuate Shows.com, win $136 Development Package
Shows.com is among the many premiums to be auctioned at TRAFFIC Silicon Valley. The most important thing is, there is no reserve, so the market can fully decide its value.
I offer a free domain development + SEO Super package ($136 value) to whoever gets closest in their prediction of the final sale price. Deadline for submitting your estimate is 24h before the auction starts.
I’ll start with the Estibot.com automatic estimate: $190,000
RULES: You may not submit a valuation that is within $20,000 of a previously submitted valuation.
Post your prediction as a comment to this post. Good luck!

My guess is $42,000. Might be quite low but that is what my “gut” tells me.=)

I hope it goes over $500k. My guess is $525k
Maybe I’ll get some action on a few of mine.
LossofData.com – DataRecovery.com sold for over 1 million.
ReducePower.com
HelpPolice.com
TryDigital.com
BroadbandVoipPhone.com
I wish they would finalize the lists more than 1 week before the auction. Seems like it might not leave enough time for them or us to do proper marketing. We’ll see.
Best.

Final Selling Price $102,000, looks like Ed was the lucky one.
I was off by $60,000… Way off.
Kind of a bummer of an auction, total sales were less than $388,000 (Before they brought back others with lowered reserves)
Well, Rick still made a cool $58,000 (@ 15% commissions… is that is what he charges). Good for him.
