@domainretail That's actually really bad, something should be done about this. This issues this more global awareness, it's just reaping business owners and creators off their hard work, it's crazy! So many businesses owners have complained about this on IG too. Something has to be done!
@Duval_ai Congrats brother, God bless your grind, this post resonates deeply and it feels so real when I perceived this is a real person sharing how practically things are. All shall be well
We just bought the domain https://t.co/M5E1Ar0XBm for $750,000 π³
When I first started Stan, I was so broke that the best domain I could afford was https://t.co/sX4hOBjxcy π«
Eventually we got https://t.co/v9FJMYToaH and that was a huge win.
https://t.co/M5E1Ar0XBm tried to charge us hundreds of thousands of dollar. But we were a tiny company barely making $500k.
I still remember thinking, "lol I will never pay that for a domain".
So there's something really special about this moment.
The most special part though is that Alyssa Williams, our first ever business hire, got the deal done.
Alyssa's been with us in the trenches since day one, back before we had anything.
It's a beautiful full circle moment for all of us.
It might sound silly, but I'm realizing buying https://t.co/M5E1Ar0XBm is a beautiful symbol of grinding for years, and then seeing the fruits of your labor manifest into the real world.
So this is your reminder that you can start with a shitty domain like https://t.co/sX4hOBjxcy, no money, and tons of people doubting you.
And one day - you can have an incredible team, incredible mission, and a 4 letter .com domain ;)
Onwards and upwards Stan team!

Buying https://t.co/qi1hgXRgcL for $4k a few years ago was definitely my best (personal) domain purchase.
