debate If a domain is 1 year or younger in age, are you less likely to buy it?

I hand regged a name on 11/2017 and sold it for $8500 on 5/2018.

I only hand-reg.

Was handreg'd with immediate X,XXX offers.

Age is something I do personally look at, I don't usually pick up domains that have a history of being dropped. A good rule of thumb -- is if it has a consistent owner, there is a reason for that.

It's very bad and namepros members who do it are teaching the newbees how to lose money. We need threads advising against it. One or two a year at most. Then the other 50 - 100 domains you buy should be dropcatch or from some auction platform just try to get them below wholesale. Even, better get them off here and flip (although domains do sell super high on namepros there are some good deals).

Every good domain is taken and domains drop for a reason. If, they drop they and are worth even a little they are picket up by snapnames, dropcatch, dynadot expired auctions, etc. Registers are not morons they don't let domains be registered by hand. Chance, are if you have hand-regged a domain it was either dropped (it's a bad domain), or was never registered in the history of the internet. It is foolish to hand-reg from all we are learning, 1 to 2 domains a year is too many!
