That is way too expensive for a domain name. Think outside the box (otb) otbfinance for outside the box financing...just kidding...but $1000. for a domain name is insane. spend $100. throw the other $900. into marketing. and it will balance out.

All I have to say is: Once you do decide on a domain name you like that's available, buy it ASAP. I thought I had an original name for a site that I wanted to start, so I took a month to make the site, then went to buy the name and someone had already taken it within that short span.

Buy it....well take his advice then...sounds like very sound marketing practise. btw, just because you like it doesn't mean its good and if you break the marketing bank to buy it. I'll buy the one that's not as good and drive traffic to it through marketing. Don't over think it though. Go with your instincts.
