Sedo mobi's

noonoo1 · 08-10-2007, 03:22 PM

I looked on sedo auctions earlier and they only had 3 mobi's listed. Where have all the names gone? Domainers on holiday? Lull in the market place? Developement of mobi?

Looks like no demand for .mobi. Even here on Namepro's .Mobi Marketplace I notice many .mobi's for sale but nobody that's showing any interest.

strong premiums (of the unreserved nature, of course) and names of the NNN/LLL.mobi variety are still being bought and sold rather consistently. I think more people are beginning to realize that aftermarket purchases of 2/3 word non-generics are a sketchy investment at best, under current market conditions.

Market is soft, it's that simple. It'll pick back up again, just wait.

'08 is going to be the year my friends. Hold your good names, sell or drop your dog names. Everything will be fine, trust me.

Could be a buyers market in the near future then. Its quite interesting how the mobi phenomenom changes. Big surges in passion for the extension then it disapates then comes back even stronger. Its almost like .mobi is a living thing.

Wrong!! It is active at ebay with plenty of bidding for .mobi.

You should not be surprise at the slowing of listings and sales in DotMobi domains. The domain auction market is not insulated from world events. Markets worldwide have been falling and credit is tightening in the U.S. Just as these markets go through their correction, so will other markets as well.

Do not worry though, domain sales will pick up when the world debt markets and exchanges stabilize after this major correction. The 2nd wave of buying will be much slower and at a trickle from corporations but it will gain momentum in 2009. That is my prediction. ;-)

I've just sold a mobi so there are buyers out there, and i'm getting massive traffic on them at the moment! So i guess it's just a matter of time before we all get inundated with offers etc!! But i hope it picks up quickly and not 2009 as quasar predicts because i want to rehome a neglected Harley!!! LOL!

But saying that sales have been slow but i've had many offers, but i'm just not getting high enough ones to convert to sales!! But Sedo has been very slow as i was getting approx 3 offers per month at one stage and lots of low ball offers from afternic for my LLL.mobi's. I recently got a few offers from moniker but they were for premium LLL.mobi but saying that they the offers were above the average for LLL's, but just no where near premium LLL asking prices!!
