How many LL.TV's will be over $xx,xxx? I'll say 13... MR, HI, XL, IQ, JR, HO, PO, MO, KY, IL, WV, KO, VA No LL.TV's will sell for under $1k Go ahead give your predictions if you dare.

| I'm not very good at predictions at the moment dotstop.  I just hope they all sell and do not let the tv extension down.  I must admit I think you are right about lawyers being a good name.  I do not know much about snapnames and certainly hope they contact possibly clients for their auction names. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=707579 If not, then it might prove to be a dis-appointment. Here's hoping. I think your predictions are good though. Keep up the good work. Kim  |

    | 500K is a lot of money and I don't think there is that much money in .tv domaining. Current bids total: 65,916 But I have to say many names have a low reserve.

| I put my guesses at another forum - in case anyone wants to see. I won't link here but I'm not duplicate posting Just sayin'. I'm not as bullish as The Dot Stop and I doubt as bearish as SDSINC.

The Sedo auction last year was I believe over $750k total and there were only 115, well actually 111 names. take out last years top 5 names (Business, Christmas, Learn) Lets say that is taking out $200-$250k which brings last years total sales down to about $500-ish. Now fast forward to this year...TV has picked up some traction. Also this auction has 169 (I believe thats what I counted) so that is an extra 60 names. Lets say there is close to 100 LL.tv's also whereas last years Verisign/Sedo auction I dont remember any LL.tv's ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=707579 I clearly think my $500k Total sales is VERY low given my safe and overly cautious example from last years big auction... We shall see | ||||

| Hate to link to them but theDomains has the list: http://www.thedomains.com/2010/04/08...inners-losers/ Surprised when I looked. Few names seem high still but in the face of recent sales... so many seem so low now... 0.tv $3,100 Wow.

One things for sure, I'm sure it will do better than that silly dot co auction. and thx for the compliment Kim.
I am glad you got this info from there... Berkens is the man. Looking at these LL.tv sales from last year... I sure as heck hope the Market is better now. I cant believe it, only 2 LL's got into the $xx,xxx range last year! in.tv $16,550 re.tv $10,100 ca.tv $9,500 au.tv $8,100 dr.tv $5,800 jp.tv $5,200 id.tv $5,000 to.tv $2,550 xo.tv $2,550 bf.tv $2,200 is.tv $2,150 vs.tv $2,150 bs.tv $2,050 of.tv $1,650 At least none of the LL's sold for under $1650 last year. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=707579 If we look at the overall average LL from last year being...about $4 - $5k each and there are about 100 LL.TV's in there this week, well thats $400-$500k right there in LL's alone! How about these 2 sales last year... japan.tv $10,099 germany.tv $10,099 WOW! ---------- Post added at 12:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:13 AM ---------- I just counted all the LL's in this auction. I came up with 99 LL.TV's I really need to get my dot tv blog started. Does anyone know how to install a WP template on my Analyze.tv domain for me? I had a friend who was gonna do it this week and never got around to it. How cool would it be to own and develop MR.TV? I love my Analyze but being "MR DOT TV" would just blow anything else away. There are only about 5 people who I know would want this for that reason only... Damn, How I wish I could compete w/you Big Dogs!!! If anyone wants to borrow me about $20K I promise I will develop it ASAP.

First off, I have to ask... ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=707579 Are you picking these as the Top 10 sales today? Second, here are my final prices for your 10 picked...(Mine are in red) air.tv 3,500 $13k big.tv 2,500 $2000 british.tv 2,500 $3k hi.tv 5,500 $10k iq.tv 1,800 $4k no.tv 2,500 $6k php.tv 1,500 $1k rant.tv 2,500 $1500 stocks.tv 5,500 $5k tax.tv 2,000 $1300
A Lot of the Big Boys are being VERY VERY quiet this week. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=707579 ------------------------------------------- Whats up w/GG.TV taking the lead right now, a WHOLE entire $1000 ahead of the BEST LL.TV in there...MR.TV??? Hey, As I just picked my picks against ErdInc, I saw Rant.tv and thought about that one... Wouldn't that be a Killler name to have as a video site...ranting about any subject at all??? That could be a sleeper here. I just also noticed a nother brilliant LL.TV ER.TV = Emergency Room.tv!Doctors, Operating, First aid, Health, et... I am liking this one more and more. This may be worth placing a bid on... ONLY 5 more hours left!!! .

| the dot stop, I picked them from domains that have bids and reasonable reserves and are likely to sell. After auction finishes we can check who has more guesses closer to sale price. Example: air.tv sells for $9,000. You are 4k off. I'm 5,5K off. You win. Of course we will exclude domains that don't sell. |

I've went back n forth a few times on my final prices and want to keep changing my mind...Of course I wont now that its locked in. This is tough. I hope Im way off and everything sells for very high today but there are just so many LL.TV's here that I think it could hurt the outcome a little bit. We'll see shortly. ---------- Post added at 08:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:12 AM ---------- So, I'm wonedering wtf is the big deal w/this GG.TV being already at $4600 with 4 hours left. I search for 10 seconds to find some potential end users and this is what I find... http://www.gardenerguy.com/GGTV.html ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=707579 http://ggtv.blip.tv/ http://www.guamgaming.com/ggtv_stream.php This really is an incredible opportunity to grab one of 99 insanely short and brandable LL's today. Will there be any LL's that will sell for under $1k??? Good Luck to everyone. ---------- Post added at 08:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 AM ---------- GG is at $4800 now!

But you still need a 2nd bidder, just as interested... and so far there are 8 bidders on GG. ---------- Post added at 10:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 AM ---------- Less than an hour left now. Does anyone know how many minutes before auction close you can bid and NOT re-start the clock??? | ||||

| It says on their web site final minutes will restart the auction for another 5. Depends on their thoughts on "Final minutes" I would guess 2 minutes to closing will restart it ???

| Automatically extends the auction if you make a bid when there's less than 5 minutes left. That's why some of the .tv auctions are still live. ---------- Post added at 04:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:57 PM ---------- Here are some of the final selling prices. Pretty disappointing:
