    All, I’d like to provide the community with another update on the recent situation. I appreciate all the opinions and engagement from the community. As we reviewed our policies and procedures, our goal was to do what’s right for our domain investors and to protect the industry from domain...

    Thanks Brad, I'll do my best to update everyone on where we are, but also wanted to address some of the conspiratorial nonsense I've been seeing. I understand that not having me always online addressing each new point immediately provides a fertile ground for drawing conclusions, but let's...

    strategy Strategy to sell domains at least 50-100$

    The trouble with targeting $50-$100 is that the math simply doesn't work. The best portfolios out there have an annual sell-through of around 2%. I would surmise that a hand-reg portfolio is closer to 0.5% or so if done well. So, if you register 1000 domains @ $10 ($10k investment) and sell 5...

    Frank Schilling - Uni - Uniregistry Announces Domain Liquidity

    See this is why we can't have nice things... Frank and Uni are trying to do something that will benefit a certain section of the community that needs immediate money from their assets, but it has turned into a bashing from people who are not in the situation to need the immediate money. Try to...

    Special xfer promo for Discount Domain Club members

    Hey folks, every now and then I'm allowed to do a limited promo by our accountants. With price increases dominating the news cycles lately I thought it would be fun to offer a transfer in promo at below cost to help ease the renewal burden headed into the holidays. So, here's the deal: If you...

    Premium Listing Sold on GoDaddy for $99,999.00, My list Price, GoDaddy Nonresponsive

    Team will arrive in the office soon and will discuss with them. I strongly caution against spending any money from a sale before it is actually in your account, this is a large sale and will go through more scrutiny than smaller sales do, so the payout timeline will be longer. I sincerely hope...

    Wanted to give everyone a quick update before the weekend. We've been having numerous calls with outside experts and internally as we continue to review our processes. We've made a lot of good progress, but this is a complicated issue and there is still more to do. We want to make sure we get...

    Thanks for all the feedback on this so far. I've been reading every reply and can understand your concerns. In the last 36 hours, we've been having some serious discussions about our policies, processes, and ultimately, how we can better serve our customers while protecting everyone's legal...

    information Brent Oxley Loses Access to Create.com, Plus Millions of Dollars Worth of His Domains

    After reading everything here and in the article, I wanted to address some of the questions swirling around about this. There were many factors in deciding if we locked domains or kept domains locked in the India case between Mr. Oxley and Mr. Agarwal. For instance, a U.S. federal court denied...

    Frank Schilling - Uni - Uniregistry Announces Domain Liquidity

    You just described the entire industry, and the majority of all industries. Buy at wholesale and sell at retail is a core tenant of the every retailer. We have bought several portfolios at per-domain prices that look ridiculous individually, but when added up represent a good deal for us and the...

    Premium Listing Sold on GoDaddy for $99,999.00, My list Price, GoDaddy Nonresponsive

    I disagree, with increased value comes increased risk and increased scrutiny. I'll be handling this directly from here on with the seller.

    What's going on with Epik and Rob Monster?

    Why was this necessary? This thread has nothing to do with GoDaddy, I'd appreciate it if you didn't try to drag us into it.

    It's a price test, we're seeing what level will best qualify a lead, that's why the article showed two different prices.
