Blujay marketplace 404, domain registry changed 4/17.
Could it have been sold? Or the owner just decide the Google ads weren't making enough cash?
It also looks like it may have switched to a new shared DNS with all registry info private. domain: blujay.com created: 05-May-2004 last-changed: 17-Apr-2009 registration-expiration: 05-May-2009 Although the owner seems to have let it go for some time, I hate to see this one go. A site like PH or WP doesn't stand a chance and never really did, but Blujay was able to produce quite a bit of business for many sellers friends. It produced more traffic per listing than Ebid and Bonanzle, and worked well as a secondary store for hundreds of sellers.
