DQS 50 · .shop · 6ch · brandable
Directional only — a gut-check range, not an appraisal. Uses DQS + TLD + length; doesn’t know about comps, trademarks, or brand context. Treat as “worth looking at” vs “skip,” not a bid price.

elbows.shop is keyword-driven: the SLD "elbows" does the positioning work that a brandable would need marketing dollars for. Short names like this (6 chars) tend to be the sweet spot for SaaS brandability — memorable without hitting the premium-tax of 3-4 letter names. The phonetics are balanced between vowels and consonants — typical for a pronounceable English-style name. .shop has established itself as a commercial TLD — SaaS and dev-tool brands in particular accept it as first-choice rather than a fallback. With zero Wayback coverage, the domain's prior history is effectively a clean slate from a content perspective. DQS 50/100 is the mid-band: the domain has real signals behind it but isn't an obvious standout. Mid-band names reward buyers who understand a specific niche. Redemption-period status means the owner has about 27 days left to reclaim the name. Any outside party can only wait and watch. The keyword component is the honest hook here.
