Whats up guys. when amendment 64 passed in colorado I took it upon myself to register some domain names because I figure the marijuana industry is going to explode within the year.

the domain names i got were:
coloradomunchies.com
denvermunchies.com
denversativa.com
ogcolorado.com

anyways, i just finally received my first offer of $150 for coloradomunchies.com

Anybody here have any experience buying and selling domain names? I'm thinking that I can get more than $150 for it if I just wait it out. What do you guys think?

I think you're just a tad late to cash in on domains. If that turns out to be a true offer then take the money and run all the way to the bank and consider yourself very lucky. The days of getting rich off dot coms are long gone.

How much did you spend on each domain name? I must say that's some pretty forward thinking. I wonder if south park will do another weed episode to commemorate.

haha that's pretty smart. I would sell it at that price if it were me but you might be able to make a little more.

Sparked my interest so I googled it. Not sure how legit this is, but it says that www.sex.com sold for 13m.

It's for sure not as lucrative as it was in the 90's but people still do make money off domain names.
