NY/Fashion/Photographer
in DotCom

Sale venue: Outbound
Seller: Me
Asking price: $500
Sale price: $350
Purchase price: $10.99
Domain Held for 9 Months

Notes: I was looking for a super-quick flip. Did outbound to 10 NY Fashion Photographers. I only got response from 2 in 3 days. One accepted my $500 price tag but was taking too much time to transfer funds (24 hours payment time), and failed my deadline, so offered it to the 2nd highest bidder. I needed the money, and ASAP!!!

Damn I almost think you could have sold that for more by placing it thru godaddy auctions with no reserve, at a $12 start. Lots of people go to hollywood, and need a bailbondsman. Good recovery of capital if you weren't going to renew it though.

Thank you--I wasn't going to renew that one. But I have 3 others that I think I'm going to use to test cold-calling....the worst that can happen is that they hang up on me, lol.

When sedo sells your domain for $99, what do you get? $39??

pretty sure sedo charges 60$ min. hence the 90$ min price
so sold for $100 shoudl get him $40.

obviously, sedo should stop being the worst and most expensive min charger in domaining. but somehow they just don't get it.

So sedo made more money than the person who owned the actual sale item.

yep.. pretty much no point using sedo for sales under $300-400

and if u get into some fancier cctld extensions like al, rs or something... its $200 min I think. something like that. its alright for expensive sale domains I guess. but forget sedo for everything else.

Yes you are correct - a whole $39 LOL - min fee for BIN is $60.

Here's some sound advice, don't buy domains you think will sell for $99 since the return it minimal

I was honestly going to let it drop so I'll take my $39

That was a lucky sale. I would have agreed with you if we were talking about the correct word order which is HollywoodBailbonds.com

Domain name: prop.bet

Sale venue: Sold via Escrow.com
Listing type: Cold email to me from buyer asking if it was for sale
Seller: Me
Sale price: $6,500
Purchase price: Whatever the initial registration fee was for .bet at launch... I think I may have paid a premium on it if I registered at landrush but it wouldn't have been more than $150... if it was during general availability it would probably have been around $30 if I recall correctly.
Details: It received no interest on a Flippa auction a few weeks ago but shortly after it ended I was emailed by the buyer asking me if it was for sale and we went from there.​

Love It :)

Always been the way in domaining ..
you get more $ when the buyer comes knocking.

Instead of you knocking.

Top man.

N/u/tr/it/io/nalG/ui/de.Org
Purchase Price: $3 (namecheap discount)
Sold for: $150 @Flip
Net: -$350... Here's why:

Spaceship inspired peeps in chat to try dev'ing their domains because he shared his success on Flippa. He encouraged us to try and said it was easy and that he's sold some high xxx for 14 mins of dev'ing time.

I haven't made an end user sale since KP.com, so his idea kind of seeded into me. I decided I'd try it out -- but with a twist.

I figured that most domainers aren't really well-versed in SEO, so I figured that could make my shoddy dev'ing stand out. I decided to plan on placing some high-quality links on the site to see if the Flippa end users would see their value.

So I used a free theme, found a free slider, spend the better of 2 WHOLE days trying to figure out what was what and where was what and why was what and why rainbows exist! And when I finally got that down, it took me some 6'ish hours to write and post two articles on the site because one was well-researched.

Then I did the backlinking on 4 high-authority sites. The backlinks together would've cost over $500... <-- and that's why $150 really isn't that great.

But I'm still happy with the sale because :D well I sold the domain, so now I know this works. I can now sell off all my registrash if I rinse and repeat. But realistically, it would take over 100 articles to sell 100 domains for $150 each... Not so sure it's worth (:.

But my friends, this is one other way to sell domains you registered and then can't sell. YOU DON'T HAVE TO LET YOUR DOMAINS EXPIRE :D THIS IS A WAY OUT :D.

well "asking price" may also be referred as sold for the asking price... just because it's not the same interpretation as yours doesn't make it ridiculous
