IMO, some of these domains are probably worth more than $250 anyway.

Huh? A domain is worth around £10, not $250, not £1000 and definitely not $15,000+.

I don't think you understand. By your logic, everything should be equally priced based on its constituent parts, totally ignoring availability, desirability, demand and countless other factors.

Are you seriously saying that if you owned the domain name coke.com and the domain name jkkjs7e98wesj.com that you'd sell them to me for £10 each?

Worth and cost are not the same.

Very true, but when it comes to a domain, to have a fair and equal system - they must be the same.
