The first offer I got for my domains: 800USD for block / mx @ undeveloped from a mexican IP

Try to counter for higher or just accept it?

I had this domain for a week and I did only a little outbound with it. I had it priced at Undeveloped for 4888 USD.

It would cover all my expenses for the 90~ hand regs.

Not sure how countering works, if he declines the counter offer, can I still go back to 800 USD? Or does it lose the sale?

Thanks.

Never accept the first offer even if you are okay with it.

Counter with what you think is the right price and then go from there.

Peace.

Thanks for the votes and advice so far.

Since block . SH sold for 2500, I think it has potential to get at least 2500...

I'm thinking about countering with 2500, which is something in between.

I do that to people when I want to buy a domain, bid really low and expect to get an offer in between.

@cixxy - quick edit out the buyer details just in case, simply retype your reply instead of the screenshot

<-unx is paranoid of details botching a deal that is not yet completed

Good luck - your counter seems fair although you might want to hold a while, your BIN seems quite reasonable as well. Yet if cash money now is more important, be happy with it and move to the next deal : smile :

Not sure how countering works, if he declines the counter offer, can I still go back to 800 USD? Or does it lose the sale?

At Undeveloped, the counter will negate the $800 offer. Talked about this with @Undeveloped and they said that if the buyer gets a counter, then later you would attempt to go back to the original offer, the buyer very often still won't complete the sale at the original offer.

Some of my domains have minimums and will get offers of the exact minimum, then after countering closer to my BIN, the buyer messages they don't even want to pay their original offer so it's helped me learn that offers aren't actually binding anyway.

congratz on the offer (y)

I personally would of gone a bit higher circa 4000 as you have dropped your price by nearly 50% which is a BIG drop and not left a lot of room for negotiation

Let us know how you get on.....

Thanks for the advice and sharing your valuable experience. I believe this offer was genuine because 800 USD is no small amount though, right?

Cool, is there a section on sedo for crypto only? I haven't used their auction system before.

and due to that I had to let the price be a more reasonable one. 4000 is quite ballsy haha, I didn't want to risk losing a sale, hopefully my words were courteous enough.

Would it be ok to submit it anyway if he doesn't come back to me soon,, I mean is it possible to cancel an ongoing sedo auction?

Also I don't see a button to apply: https://sedo.com/us/about-us/news-press/newsroom/crypto-domains-auction-september-13-20/

Also, I have Exchange.bz which would be great for this :D

First rule of sales.....summed up quite well in the below article

Great article thanks.

Just submit for auction. Only if they accept it will go for the auction event. But submit fast. I think it starts on SEP 13.

I see, so you just submit any domain for auction and if they think it's suitable for the crypto auction, they will put it for that section.

I don't usually go for sedo auctions but from memory when reading their info recently, if you're submitting for an auction event you have to guarantee it won't see elsewhere in the next few days while they review it. So that might negate any negotiation you want to do with the offer on undeveloped. Obviously you can let him know he can bid in the auction, but just worth considering the possible ramifications of closing the current negotiations with him.

Ah I see thanks for the info. So I have to disable the pages on Undeveloped once I submit it for auction?

I already sent a ticket to Sedo asking if they could open a crypto auction for me since I saw no button anywhere for it specifically.

I would assume you just need to disable the BIN and I guess you can't make a sale to the current offer-er. Someone with more Sedo experience might confirm.

From a sales point of view - always counter offer if you don't then every time a offer comes in and you accept then you are potentially losing money

If you don't want to negotiate then set a BIN price.......

Sedo says once you start an auction you can't sell the domain elsewhere.
So just list the domain as make offer with no buy now prices on other websites.
Redirect the domain to current sedo listing. that listing will automatically become auction page when it starts.
