well, I just got offered $200 for my facebook URL (facebook.com/omg.lol) Apparently the guy is starting up a webpage and needs it for his business.

Should be cool if it isn't a scam.

Try bargaining for a better price if he's legit.

Welp, you do what you want. You could have had a better deal, though.

One shall stand, one shall ball.

lol, who cares? "Getting a better deal" on a Facebook url might actually be the most pointless use of time.

are you joking? he could have negotiated for $100 more, and let's say it takes the guy half an hour to get back to him. that means poision would have earned a rate $200/hr. that's more than some lawyers make.

making good money is never a waste of time.

and that's assuming poision sat there and did nothing for the half hour, really it's much more than that

so it's hard to take them seriously

In the end he thought my Facebook account was a page, lol. I cleared the URL and its just open now but Facebook isn't letting him change his page's URL.

Oh well, I still got the money, guess he'll just contact Facebook to get it sorted out.

Honestly I was just gonna sell it for $50 but he offered first, so even if I could have potentially got 100 more it's still pretty cool.

I should just sit down with my 48 other Facebook accounts and just squat as many urls as I can think of.

Twitter basically only exists for people who really need PR people to make asses of themselves when their PR people aren't around to save them. It's maybe the greatest thing the internet has done.
