Someone has offered to buy my orienteering domain (online-orienteering.net) for a 4 figure sum.
Of course I accepted.
I have no idea why they decided to make this purchase, but I'm getting much more than its worth.
I even told them in email that I am not going to guarantee any residual PageRank. I've already setup 301 redirects which will be live for about 2 weeks until they take possession of the domain and I've submitted the change requests to DMOZ.
The site does have some odd links out there, but most of the PR it has comes from DMOZ and my other sites (mostly my other sites).
They paid via cashiers check, the check is already in my hand. I called the issuing bank and they vouched for it's authenticity, I will still wait for it to clear but it looks legit to me.
The company making the purchase is called "Verisoft LLC" a quick Google search shows they've bought other domains.
