Two off the top of my head that I keep meaning to get something set up for, but never quite get around to:

Inventoryscreen.com - can't quite remember what this was supposed to be for, but considered doing tshirts from this. Omgwtf.asia - my housemate and I are oldschool anime fans, this was supposed (and should still be) a quirky East Asian culture blog

If anyone actually has a business plan suitable for the above, get in touch :)

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Reasonable offers considered. If you really do consider reasonable offers you are part of a rare breed :) I have yet to email the owner of an unused domain name, Godaddy parking page still intact just like when they registered it three years ago, offered them a few hundred dollars and not gotten a response back that would be more appropriate for haggling over the price of their first born child.

I sold a domain for five figures and have given others away for free. I've turned down offers for four figures and two figures... :) I know there's a lot more to a brand than the domain name, and I know a good name is important to a brand... :) FWIW.

Well said. My little bit of snark was aimed at the domain industry, not you, obviously.

Apparently the HN crowd is squatting on half the .io domains :)
