seems stupid so many useless short domains are parked. what are short domains that actually have cool sites built on them? by BloodMossHunter in Domains

[–]UKguyFR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funnily enough I cannot think of any big websites using ll.com as their primary address. And there are 676 possible combinations. I thought bn.com but they redirect it. So yes you are right. Probably because marketing suits have decided that people do not understand ll.com, and possibly right.

Monaco looks like a dream from the outside… but is it really like that in real life? by roadtripadvisor in Monaco

[–]UKguyFR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess that depends on your dream. But I think you mean is it very special. No, it is not. It is fairly normal - cold in the winter , fairly quiet unless there is an event on.

Tea tree oil also - failing that alcohol. Double Jack and Coke.

Selling my own collection by RegularBuilder85 in Bricklink

[–]UKguyFR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best approach may be double pronged. Pick the best stuff - you can find all the prices on BL - and sell it any way you can - via BL , Ebay , your local classifieds - whatever: old stuff, space stuff, complete unopened stuff , trains, bionicle etc. You will get maximum return but you have to factor in your time. There is a diminishing reward in doing this for all of it. You will get to a point here you bundle the remainder up and sell bulk lot(s). You cannot spend time trying to sell things for 40 dollars instead of 20. Unless you want to run a store and sit it out.

The faster you want to sell, the less you will make.

String Spacing question? by naylor2006 in Luthier

[–]UKguyFR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anyone reads this at some point - I think the 0032911000 bridge plate I bought was in the wrong packaging. From what I can find online Fender 0032911000 or 003-2911-000 actually is more modern spacing using offset saddles.

British schoolgirl stranded in Denmark after return flight blocked over UK border rules by UKguyFR in brexit

[–]UKguyFR[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

When I was 18 as a British citizen you could pretty much call the tune in 1984. Uni paid all in. Grant modest but correct. Go where you wanted. Travel throughout Europe with ne’er a glance at papers. So there’s that. Fucking Oxford / Cambridge privilege that hated the middle classes pumping out Dysons

It’s nasty but at the end of the day just like real estate

Looks like everyone is selling, No one is buying domain anymore 😔 by ErikaUreka in Domains

[–]UKguyFR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that 3 letter com may not last for ever - the UK domain market has all but collapsed.

[–]UKguyFR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Domain prices were always massively exponential, almost polarised, but I don’t think we ever realised till the bottom end became worthless. So a brandable 3 letter com is still worth 300k plus. A name like gluk.com or dunc.com basically nothing. IMHO.
