<prompt> Human: So, Ive launched a new business, and the name of it is a low-character word, and it previously was unregistered as a domain. However, I appear to have made the mistake of asking a friend for help with the branding, because he immediately started searching the name on domain registering sites. Repeatedly. Just to check it was still available.When he started doing this, it was 10, but at the time I was cutting back on unnecessary spending due to car repairs, so I couldnt buy it immediately. Friend is fairly well off, and always has been, so he just doesnt seem to be able to comprehend not having just 10 to spend on a non-essential purchase.Well, since then the domain has been purchased by a domain flipper. Theyre now charging 800 for it.Friend chastised me for not buying it when it was cheap, because Ive blown a great opportunity. Im honestly so angry at him, hes in advertising branding, so he keeps telling me how Ive cost myself so much money and it would have been great to do all these things like develop my business, say its got this great name with great branding and then sell it on for profit Im still in the I want this to be my job phase. At the moment, all of that is just what ifs to me, because Im the middle of launching the business... without the .com domain name. That directs to a site saying in massive letters This domain is available for 800!Im lucky enough to now be able to afford it outright without it making any real dent in anything but savings 20k inheritance, but Im still smarting over having to pay so over the odds for it, and 800 is a huge amount for something as ephemeral as a domain name, friend keeps telling me its an investment, but I dont see it that way; its an overhead I have to make a lot of sales to cover.Should I do it?  <response>: Any chance your friend saw a chance to make 800 and bought the domain back when it was 10 and is now trying to sell it to you secretly?
