strategy Sold domain name to a large corporation, buyer was just an anonymous individual

So I sold a domain name back in March 2017, to an individual who made an initial offer of $400., on Dynadot Marketplace. We closed the deal at mid four figures, a fair price, maybe even on the low side, for a five letter domain name of mine that consisted of a real word plus a single digit...

I sold a domain for low to mid five figures a few years ago, and @Silentptnr recently alerted me that the domain was in GoDaddy auctions. Thank you! When I sold the domain, it sat there with my name servers for about a year. Then about a year later a business appeared on the domain, but in...

discuss I sold a domain for $XX,XXX now it’s parked

Just over two years ago I sold a dot com domain for low to mid five figures. A great sale. I've had many like it. For this domain, the buyer, a Hollywood producer, didn’t even change name servers on the domain for a year. It kept resolving to my for sale PPC parking. At the time that I sold...

offers Dealing with very low offers: Flat out reject or offer/counter ?

I did get one of these 50 offers up to 4000 and closed the deal but in general the lowball offers end up going nowhere. I do respond to all offers politely.

As GoDaddy changes commission rates at Afternic, DAN, Uniregistry at what point do their actions become monopolistic?

As I discussed here, GoDaddy has now increased the commission rate for sales not using their landing pages at Afternic and at DAN and Uniregistry. One by one GoDaddy has acquired all three of these formerly independent marketplaces, and now, will make the commission rate 25% at all three for...

discuss So are you INVESTING in domain names or just flipping them?

As with any investment, it also depends on what you are holding. Crap wine ages to still be crap wine. Only very fine wines benefit from aging. Same with domains.

Bob is nice guy, appears to be the type of person I'd have over for dinner and relax with in my living room. He appears to be a quality individual with integrity. Here's to Bob!(y) But whether he knows his stuff with regards to domaining, has nothing to do with how nice or gentlemanly a...

I did not look up the above case yet, but I note that you quoted the DISSENT. He might do better putting up a website where the domain is used for legitimate purposes that have nothing to do with Lamborghini. For example...say someone had the domain ibm dot com and had maintained some kind of...
