I have been creating a list however, I don't know if anything I have found thus far is worth the registration price. Who knows, maybe I will take the jump and pick up a couple more.
if sex.com score is a 999 and sex.tv is only a 629 then your ceiling must change- what is the premium start score for coms and tvs
(ex: a .com is a premium -to you- if it has a score of 350? >higher- a tv is premium if it has a score of ??? or higher)
what is the ???

Ooooodles of Videocentric Names for Sale HERE
I have a little fund I am thinking of using, but I am leary of spending more then a few hundred on any single name until we see how the market starts picking up.
My thinking is that what happens if the tools they provide and current confusion over pricing at enom could do more to damage the tld then help it. What happens if people make a mad rush to buy and then start finding the price different on different enom sites. And then they call customer service and get that same top notch service we have all come to see......?
I want this to work well (and I mean that sincerely, I love TV, and for you naysayers, I picked up some aftermarket names yesterday so meh). I just have some concerns for how well enom can pull it off and am not sure I want to throw a few more grand at it before I see what they do.
That and I think the whole "this name is better so we are going to charge an arbitrary 5K for it without any true market evaluation basis" is rather asinine.
Checked it yesterday .. Thanks ... and the ones I really have my eye on I would have to sell the house or the business to invest ... so guess they are struck off my list.
We have a saying in the UK not sure if applys elsewhere but you may get the gist of it if not - here goes.
" Champagne Tastes, Lemonade income !!!! "
Guess thats me for now.. being a newbie (ish) and all.
That aside due to the fab advice ,from so many domainers willing to share and experitise available here, across the various extensions, I can see the quality . So a deserved thankyou .. to those that particpate and guide us!
I so want to own the quality names (Where will my premium single keyword .com / .tv & maybes .mobi come from?)
But the bottle to invest in it at top dollar even at some resale prices sends me fleeing ( take note.. for now! lol )
Maybes as my confidence builds .. I can summon up the courage to shell out for some.??
Untill then, the aftermarket is delivering for me at the moment. So until the slush fund is well stacked ...and a sure fire, stable, financial buffer is well established to carry these premiums for maybes a significant hold time I am watching, waiting and learning and may just take the plunge.
As I said .. Until then
I ... Guess mine's a Lemonade.. Ta (For now!)

Reason: Wanted thank for the expertise available here!
It's a bit like the " Location, Location, Location " It's a widely used analogy for retail .. if you had the right space in the right loaction, would you? should you..? seems a big YES is where it's at.
I guess it is the same on the highstreet it surely must apply ... in the internet space..Keywords, extension of domain importantant like it not!, brandability.. may play a factor..
Its still just a high street or " Mall " is location important .. hell yeah ! ( high street is Mall ) for those none europeans! Internet or Not .. Virtual or physical in store shopping or participation....
There is sound rational in that intial statement and I am more than sure that it must also apply .. online ...?? Tell me otherwise .
Right space? right time? is there one? to follow? an emerging technology/trend at the right time.. It surely has to benefit .. tell me if I am wrong for sure..... If you land on the right space at the right time....

Reason: typing .. Doh !
I will definitely be shopping for premiums on May 1. I was hoping to get a first refusal email but I didn't. Maybe that means that none that I am watching are $5k buy it now which is a good thing.
Isn't this the day we have been waiting for?
I'm surprised that more people are not DEFINITELY buying on May 1.
If I reg any it would be with a solid development plan in mind and probably would be a company purchase. I don't think there are any that I would reg now as an investment. I guess I am waiting to see their list of available .tv's. If it is larger then the last one www.tv had and I see a few good ones I guess I may buy a few. I do have my eye on 1 or 2 that are more then $5k, but at this point I can't see me reging them.
I am also waiting to see if there will be some sort of launch special like $25% off or if non premiums will have a launch special like $14.95/year I think I would sooner reg 20 non premium .tv's from my watch list then 1 $500.00 premium.
The think is I already own 38 premium names and I guess it would depend on which names I still have in my buy list. I believe that the chances for me are greater that 3 or 4 from my buy list will sell for more then one of the premiums for $500.00. But then again I do have my eye on one $500.00 name that I am likely to purchase. We'll see. It will be a fun week for everyone.
