The Pakistani registrant of CracklePlus.com wants $10,000 dollars, and SONY better open up its fat wallet.
Muhammad Abdullah says that the domain name CracklePlus.com is for sale, and targets the tech giant via the domain’s lander.
“Sony Cracke.com. If you are interested in buying CracklePlus.com domain for your future products/Services. Please contact on above email address.”
So what is CracklePlus?
According to Variety, it’s a new joint venture that as an upgraded service to Crackle will run Popcornflix, other streaming channels, and adjacent online video businesses.
Meanwhile, the domain CracklePlus.com is up for sale, and SONY attempted to negotiate via DomainAgents, a third party service that provides anonymity to the buyer and allows them to bargain the domain’s price.
This is how domain investors can leave money on the table, when they don’t know who is on the other side.
Muhammad Abdullah ended his negotiations with SONY, because he’s a smart guy. He should stick to his guns and reap the benefits of self-brokered domain sales.
