How much should I pay for a domain name?

The domain name I want is already in use (it's a random site that just lists other sites) and there is a link on it saying it is possibly for sale. I clicked this link and it said to put in an offer price (which could be anything - there are no guidlines). Does anyone know how much people want for domain names? - I don't want to spend too much but I also don't know if what I want to spend is too low!<br />
 
Don't pay a dime (network marketing) .. there are sites that sell domain names and if you get other people to sign up too you make money back!
 
If you have your business plan in place and are working it then pay what works to acheive your expected results. If not, make up your own name and just pay the basic listing fee. You can always add another later.
 
Sounds like the domain name is already owned by a private entity, in which case its just a case of offering a price that the private owner wants for it. If it is through a registrar, then certainly no more than $20 at the very most - more like $8/9.
 
If you are going to register a domain then the best way to register a domain for free is to purchase your domain and webhosting together. In this way it is possible to get your domain for free. Some webhosting companies offer this as a gift . I am using bluehost webhosting for mine

There is a website that does a rough domain valuation called www.estibot.com. You could start there. You could also hire a domain appraiser to give you an idea of what the domain might be worth.
 
As it is purchased by someone before, so you have to offer an attractive price to get it. You may start with 100 dollar, but I think it will cost you about 500 dollar.
 
There are some free domains but really good, like co.cc, cz.cc or .tk. You don't need to buy one if not really necessary.
