Is "higgs.com" for sale?

No. It's not for sale.

If you're one of the brain-dead lowballers who keep emailing us, demanding that we sell our domain name to you for 2/6 (half a crown or 12+12p), you need to know that:

  1. it's our legal name, BOTH personally and professionally, as a properly registered incorporated entity
  2. we've used the domain name daily since before the dark magic of the World Wide Web was written
  3. it's not for sale to you or anyone else
  4. we let our lawyers off their leashes when provoked

Now if you are still delusional enough to think none of that applies to you, you should carefully read the following...

We calculated that we'd created thousands of accounts on other websites in the last 30 years using email accounts at this domain name. So, naturally, you'll have to compensate us for having to move our email addresses to a new domain name. This is just one of many expenses you'll have to cover, and that's over and above any purchase price.

5,000 accounts x 20 minutes = 1666 HOURS AND 40 MINUTES
At $100.00/hr, our rate back in 1993, that's USD$166,666.00. Taking into account 31 years of inflation brings that up to USD$362,246.53.

That barely pays our time & expenses for the laborious job of moving our emails to another domain name. It doesn't include all the other costs the buyer must cover.

You're well on your way to spending half a million dollars, and you still haven't bought the domain name.

Have you ever done this before? No? We have - multiple times.

You must rethink what it involves. The expenses are only a tiny proportion of the cost.

Why? Because we say so. We aren't negotiating. With you, or anyone else.

Here's a tip. If you DON'T want to insult anyone (an epic failure on your part so far), you need to come up with a realistic offer for any domain name you are trying to flip (we see you).

Don't dick around in US Dollars. If you can't come up with a solid offer of AT LEAST 100,000 Bitcoin, don't even think about bothering us, you dirty, filthy cheapskate.

 

After all, who doesn't have that kind of collateral lying around?

Oh, that's right. You don't.

If, by some bizarre coincidence, you do have that much lying around, we'll make an extra special deal just because it's you.

If you call in the next 15 minutes, you can beg for our domain name for the low, low, low price of only 99,999.9999 Bitcoin.

But operators aren't standing by to take your order, because we're not selling.

The truth is, everyone here is really, really hacked off by your Scrooge-like demeanor, and has no plans to sell to you, or anyone else.

And since we have no plans to sell, why don't you just f#ck off, and stop wasting our time.
