Domain Estimation if Developed [Surchers.com]

I just picked up Surchers.com, and I'm planning on turning it into a high quality paid directory.

Any estimation on domain value if I develop it?

I wouldn't think it's worth too much. Because it is mis-spelled, it's going to be very hard to get type-in traffic. If you can develop it into something, that's a different story, but right now, it might be worth the registration fee.

Well www.Surch.com is a pretty established search engine. So I could be getting some traffic from that.

Plus I'm planning on this being a high PR (6+) directory.

I would also say the domain itself is worth nothing, its a good memorable name but you need a site to go along with it.

It is a good name, but as always, you will need promotion.
In my opinion.

Yes. Once it's developed and has brand recognition, then of course it could be worth more. But it does not have that right now.
