Mike Mann announced the sale of LightRock.com for $94,888. I posted the info on Namepros and the not legit sale postings started pouring in. Sometimes I’m […]

In 2015 the name went for just $3,000 on NameJet. The buyer back then owns some interesting names like SquattersRights.com where he discusses why typo […]
