I own growthhack.how How much do you think it would fetch?
Not a very good domain name to be honest. I doubt you will be able to sell it at all.

#12$70,000 ww.com, $50,000 camnow.com
What did you do with those domains?

#13Never paid much for domains, but the biggest loss was exgfs.com I registered it in 2005ish before that whole niche in porn took off, some dude offered me $100 3 days later, being young and naive I took it thinking it was a great flip. Year later I watched him sell it for $100,000. I learned my lesson that day.
Ouch. :(

#14I purchased myh2o.com for our SaaS billing platform (named H2O) in 2010 for $3500. I also purchased h2o.io sometime after that for $600. In 2009, an ISP client of ours, Rio Networks, sold rio.com for $450,000.

#15There is a domain I really want right now that is being squatted. Any advice HN? I already own the '.net' version so I don't really _need_ the '.com' version but I want it. I doubt it is a high value name and I am considering just sending the the admin listed in the WHOIS an email like "Hey, I will give you $50 for .com, let me know." Is this a good approach or should I try to go thru an 'appraiser' or something like that.

#16I was once contacted by a hollywood musician to buy iSingr.com. I wanted to sell for $500. My Friends convinced me to ask for $15000. And the buyer stopped responding :).

exgfs - and there was me wondering what filesystem it was.

#19I purchased Texts.com while in high school (~10 years ago) for ~$15k. I had made a fair amount of money flipping domain names on sites like Namepros / DNForum / a few private forums. A mix of "tulip" LLL.com's, and then a few instances of snagging a name in the aftermarket and immediately flipping it to an "end user."
My biggest domain-fail was letting Naked-Celebs.com expire. I bought it for something like $300 in 2009 and forgot to transfer it to my main portfolio, and somehow let it drop... I still shudder thinking about that sometimes.
