I was desperate for a sale… so I INCREASED my prices
A domain investor eager to complete a much-needed sale, played hardball with the potential buyer. When they declined the original asking price, the domainer increased theirs and the sale commenced half-way. That's the way to go, as far as negotiating with tight-wad buyers!

AI .com Renewals Coming Up — Any Keepers Here?
You don't have to register .ai domains to have AI domains. There's an open playing field for .com domains (and other TLDs) that use the popular "AI" keyword. Registering entire verticals can take its toll at renewal time, however. This domain investor shared his personal list of "AI" registrations for a quick evaluation of the keepers. Help them out!

Holy Shift: Is the New Pope Rewiring Our Investment Landscape?
Domain name trends changed a bit once Pope Francis died last month. Investors eager to capitalize on the opportunity sought out potential official names for the new Pope. While there were a few winners after Pope Leo XIV was eventually selected, there's a lot to think about the potential benefits of such ventures. Share your thoughts in this blessed thread.

Fix this! Domain offer
Despite receiving advice from a friend savvier in the art of domain investing, a fresh domainer is having trouble getting his buyer to accept their asking price. What is he doing wrong and how can it be fixed? Share your thoughts and hopefully he'll score a sale, based on your own perspective about the domain's pricing.
