Mike Mann has announced two more domain sales this week. The was a $17,000 sale of SweetLegs.com, a domain that Mike acquired in 2004 for $900. This has been acquired by the owner of SweetLegs.ca, a Canadian clothing company. The second is PivotalCommunications.com, a $6,000 sale from a $7.50 purchase in 2011. This domain hasn't been transferred to its new owners yet.

Here's this week's Top Topics.


What Does It Feel Like to Sell a Domain?

A new domain investor has asked the community what it's like to sell a domain name. After acquiring a several domains and letting many of them expire, this investor hasn't produced a sale.

So what does selling a domain feel like? One of the best responses in the discussion is an investor who says it gives a feeling of reassurance that you're doing the right thing.

Three Self Driving Domains Sold for $1,000

After registering three self driving domains earlier this month, @baseballworld has announced the sale of these three domains to a single buyer for $1,000.

It's a fantastic return on investment to get in just a matter of weeks. This investor also told the community that he has now totalled 13 domain sales within the past 60 days. Impressive!

I Turned Down Two $10,000 .TV Offers

In contrast to the discussion above is this one, in which the owner of FreshDrop.com and Pheenix.com shared the fact that he has turned down two $10,000 offers on two different .TV domain names.

The two domain names, listed in the discussion, are three and four character .TV names, and the offers were submitted via a broker. Was @gorilla_bob right to turn down these offers? Would you have accepted these offers?

How I Blew a Domain Deal

Another domain investor has shared their story of a domain negotiation that went wrong. After receiving an initial offer of $350 for a domain that was hand registered by the investor, negotiations went back and forth until the potential buyer offered $900.

According to the investor, they told their potential buyer that they would not accept less than four figures, and so the deal was lost, even when the investor went back to the buyer to later accept their $900 offer.

What Is Your Favourite Domain Name?

Everyone has their personal favourite domain names, but what's your favourite out of those that you own? This is the question that @Steven Pilditch asked this week, and the community have been responding.

Some of my favourite names from this discussion, submitted by investors, are QUE.com and BuyAny.com.
