I also own, 89accord.org, and .net. Had a guy write me and offer me $5K for it. But you know, I've had it for almost 10 years now, and I'm not going to let it go yet. So I said no. Just thought I would share. I had someone try to buy it several years ago for $1K, I laughed.

sounds like someone pulling your leg. why would someone spend that kind of money on a domain name like that? all it really could refer to is an 89 accord.

i can see in $1000. just not $5000.

omg for $5000 he could buy 50 89 honda accords, or just a 89 accord and do it up

I've had offers before. But yeah hard to say these days with people. He wrote me this story about his car and that he'd love to have the site. But either way doesn't matter, it's not for sale. Just thought it was interesting.

He has and 89 Accord and he was willing to pay $5K for a domain name?
Get him over here, it sounds like he'd fit right in.

I wont sell it, don't worry. I might have sold my Accord, that was had enough believe me. So I said I'd keep the site forever!! Yeah it the site def gave a trail for peeps to get here. I went about the names years ago, my dad helped me then and passed them onto me.

Alex

funny you say Nigeria. I listed my panasonic deck on craigslist, and some ahole tried to scam me, but I knew from the start it was a F'n scam. I was pissed. But ya this guy lives in the states, but could have been some kid dreaming, who knows.
