How much would you pay for a domain?

Hey fellow makers 👋 Need your advice on pricing. I'm building a service which helps makers and startups get an awesome domain for their project. Currently, the focus is on great dotcoms, since they are increasingly hard to source. After a few initial feedback rounds, I got a few questions about the price. So I wanted to get your views on what would you be willing to pay for a dotcom purchase? I'm only sourcing short, pronounceable, memorable names. To give you a taste: cinetric.com jugeo.com merketo.com vuovo.com etc. How much would you pay for the above-mentioned domains? Am I going overboard with $195? I would appreciate your feedback! 🙏

For me .com domains are more for prestige that for functionality. Most users just type the name of the company they want in their prefer search engine (mostly Google - which is bad) and get to the site. Of course if the .com is own by different entity that may be problem in the future of the company.

A great .com is a pretty good investment for any startup. $195 seems to be a fair price. (of course it depends from .com name to name) Do you own the domain names or do you try to akquire them?

I might not be the target but for me its much less.. 40-60 for good brandable names, 80 for great. I am a student though so prob doesn't apply for me.
