Considering offers.

About Sierra Leone:

Sierra Leone is a developing country in West Africa. Its civil war ended in 2002 and the country is now a constitutional democracy.

Sierra Leone greatly increased its popularity and recognition thanks to last year's Oscar-nominated movie "Blood Diamond" with Leonardo DiCaprio.

Sierra Leone is a major producer of gem-quality diamonds. Parts of Sierra Leone are "like Hawaii without the tourists" (NY Times), and massive Chinese investment is flowing into the region.

Comparable Sales

Zimbabwe.com $130,000 (December 2007)

The movie plays in the past. Sierra Leone is at peace now and just held peaceful elections earlier this year. Tourists as well as investors are visiting the country in increasing numbers. Tour operators are looking closely at what Sierra Leone has to offer and if the government can maintain the current momentum, Sierra Leone could become the next "hot" tourist destination in Africa.
 
$90,000 offer received.

Official asking price has been lowered to $135,000.

We're getting very close to a deal here, so if you have the cash and want one of the last country .com domains that are available in the high $XX,XXX / low $XXX,XXX range, you'd better get in touch now. :)
