Those stats will need to be changed as they are from the 'old' project on which SellApp was based/rebuilt (toffee.com), but they are indeed correct. That platform didn't convert particularly well, heh.

oh hey! you're the toffee guy. Did you swap the name because it was bad, or are you selling the domain? I thought the novelty of the toffee.com domain would be quite valuable to users -- but clearly not.

Hey, I am indeed! I actually obtained the toffee.com domain on a lease from a company (venture.com) back when funds were very limited and the lease made sense.

When I raised funding earlier this year and inquired about a potential outright purchase of toffee.com, the answer was that they didn't want to sell.

So instead of staying on the lease plan (which'd increase by a sizable amount y/o/y), I started looking for a suitable domain we could purchase outright, and luckily found sell.app for sale.
