discuss Lowballs and Entitlement and Bullying, oh my! How would You handle this?

I was contacted earlier in the week about one of my domains. After the other party's last e-mail, I decided to start this discussion and ask your professional opinions. Here's the transcript: ----------------------------THEM: Hello, I'm interested in purchasing the domain <___>.com from you...

information What is Your Flippa User Name?

As of 5 minutes ago, I am watching every flippa handle in this thread! EXCEPT :: those that didn't include a link to flippa. Is it just me, or is it difficult (or even possible) to search for users on flippa? Even if they did allow user search, most of us (me, mostly) are lazy, so it behooves...

BrandBucket valuation high, low or accurate?

2 of the 3 that I've had accepted at BB, I never went through with the listing, because I felt their number was too low. Interestingly enough, a 1 word .com that BB accepted came in much lower than what you have posted above. I wonder if it's because the 1 word .com doesn't really fit their...

discuss Domain or DN?

When buying a domain, visiting a site, etc., do you fancy "Domain" + keyword or "DN" + keyword? For example, say you love Fletch and you're building a brand around all the aliases he uses. You buy both DomainFletch.com and DNFletch.com: which one do you develop and which one do you forward to...

It looks like removing the bin and floor did work, as I was contacted by an Afternic agent to set those. I used @TauseefKhan's approach and requested that she direct the prospective buyer to the offer page, where they could see the minimum offer. Their response: Afternic requires that sellers...

Thanks for taking the time to clarify further @DU. If I'm understanding correctly, it sounds like you operate more along the lines of @DomainVP's "Too much attention and talk going on." Whereby, a better approach is to offer no explanation, no fluff (perceived or otherwise), just a price, and...

discuss Lowballs and Entitlement and Bullying, oh my! How would You handle this?

I actually get these non-monetary deal-sweeteners quite a bit. My gut instinct is always: I'm only interested in cash endeavors and cash opportunities, so I rarely even inquire. Though, I sometimes find myself wondering: should I at least inquire what they can offer? Mayhaps they really can...

@JimJammy I have a love/hate relationship with this. I suspect you're right because I often marvel at salespersons who are able to put their blinders on and continue to do business with people after seeing what they're capable of. Means to an end, I reckon. I guess the ultimate last laugh is...

Fu*k Flippa for accepting bids after auction ends...

I think I watched this auction, actually...left me wondering what I was missing, but didn't think too much of it since I don't know the platform that well. It was a no-reserve auction and after it ended, I got an e-mail from flippa saying that it sold for $___. The next day, I got an e-mail...
