Thanks abc3200 and JoshuaPz, end user rules.

If you don't mind me asking, how did the negotiation go? Did you initiate contact? How long did it take to finish the sale from first contact? Thanks.

I reached the U.K based company on 10th Sep, buyer interested in the domain and asked me the price. I asked £5,500 GBP and buyer thought it's too high but still submitted my requested price to their board. After 2 months, they contacted me on 18th Nov and countered £4,000 GBP. I accepted their offer and they agreed to wire the payment directly to my bank account to save the escrow cost. Deal completed in 2 days. A typical end user deal.

 

[GiftedDomains]

After 2 months,

be glad that meanwhile you didn't sell to someone else for less than 4000.

i hate late replys.

that happened to me once.
one buyer contacted me after several weeks and accepted my offer without negotiation.

but meanwhile the DN was sold to someone else for 30% of my initial asking price. 8-X

btw, congrats, nice sale

aint that a classic example of end user sale? Did you report to DNJournal? as most would say, do it right away!!

Should get you a spot somewhere in the list IMO, congrats!! :sold:

 

[garptrader]

Yes congrats Owntype on a perfect example of why one needs to market to end users. That same name at BIDO might have gone for $50. I'm seeing a number of offer page views as a result of my recent emails but thus far no buyers.

 

[owntype]

Thanks guys, will get some screenshot and report to DNJ.

congrats on great sale! you were patient and it paid off!

That same name at BIDO might have gone for $50.

why put it up on BIDO for throwing it out to reseller market and get pennies for a pearl? some of the gems go for meager mid $xx to low $xxx value and sellers dont get shit in their hand... I requested BIDO to close my account last month and dont use them anymore.

You can actually pick up few cheap ones from there, however I would never recommend someone selling domains on BIDO!

 

[garptrader]

I agree DONT that BIDO is worth a look to acquire an occasional decent name worth reselling (most sellers use it to dump unwanted domains) but as a seller it is not the place to obtain top dollar for your domains.

 

[Soofi]

(most sellers use it to dump unwanted domains)

very rightly said, BIDO aint an end user selling platform and most of us used to or still use it as a place to dump our garbage portfolio to try and get some $$'s out of it lol
Bido aint going no where in the long run until they get in on action and lure end users to get involved in their platform

Yeah, and the name is a high search volume keyword comes with good typein traffic.
It's risky to develop it as what it means since the word is TMed by Toei Animation Co., Ltd

[dag]

nice, congrats!

No, although that's what I had always figured it would sell to if it were to sell ("High Voltage FM" or something like that).

The buyer was actually the head of a new Farmer's Market!
