I know some of you may be powerfull flippa user, but still want to share by first big cash story ($1500)

(3) answer all questions of your buyers.
(4) ask for positive feedback.
(5) do transactions smoothly, if buyer paid you instantly transfer your domain to his account

        SUPERHIT
        Still two words, super meaning good - hit meaning in your case, a movie or a song.

        Combining them would make a 'good' song or movie.

        Two words. :p

    nice job.....
    i see flippa is also some luck involved. the right person seeing your site. but you did you homework and did it right. i just listed a $4000 site and did not get one bid. i know the site is worth alot of money but no bids.
    again, i think some luck is involved.
    congrats

    That's pretty amazing.

    I am not used to flippa, but how does the bid go from $51 to $1500 on the 2nd bid? Maybe I'm just familiar with ebay on how they do their auction structure, but great job man!

    Thats pretty amazing, good find.


    also to butzazi:

    hes not saying that the beginning bid was $50, hes saying thats how much he spent in acquiring the domain and listing it.

      I'm looking at the flippa listing and it says 2 bids. First bid was $51 and 2nd bid was $1500.

      I was asking since I am unsure if flippa does "Max bids" or something like that, cause if it did wouldn't the website be sold for $75 or something? Again, I have no idea how flippa works.

    Congrats Mahol! Put this case study into a WSO and also try it again for added proof or a bonus, but use Camtasia to record your screen then sell it!

      If Flippa had a Breathalyzer requirement it would put quite a damper on sales there.

    Any sites I can buy on Flippa that you would recommend? Im a bit skeptic about websites that are a month or two old and already makes adsense income. Who says the flippa seller just didn't send a link over an email list and asked people to click on the ads?
