Investing or Dreaming?
What type of domain investor are you: one that invests in name for a long-term gain, flips quickly for a reasonable profit, or dreams that the end user will find your domain name and purchase it for a nice retirement fund?

New Verification Process at Flippa
Flippa recently introduced a new verification process wherein bids over $5,000 must be verified with a $500 deposit per auction to deter shill bidding and fraudulent bidding. Some users believe that this is too large of an amount to be held in order to participate, while there are many other differing opinions.

Premium Name for Non-Premium Prices
Everyone wants to purchase a premium name, and many want to purchase one for a not so premium price. Though, everyone has to start somewhere, with an exact budget in mind. However, are people dreaming when they believe that such a small amount can buy a great domain, or are they perhaps hoping that they can secure a quality domain name within their budget if they wait long enough?
