I can see a number of these getting picked up - there a few others I'm surprised they accepted the high reserve and can't see selling because of it. What do you think?

I think you did the right thing, and just view the $1500 as "found money" and use it to beat me down even worse on this week's TBR.

If you insist! But I'm not sure there's too much worth fighting over this week.

No joke, and other than EFS.ca, I don't see anything I'd remotely get into a bidding war over.

I've also found that my "cheap stuff" is selling far better than my "expensive stuff" so I'm not sure my strategy of improving my domain portfolio is working out as intended.

The .CA market is just soooo insanely random. For example, from May to June 2020 I bought 9 domains through dot-ca and I've already sold 4 of them (I call them my Magic 9) with inquiries/bids on them all, while during the same time I bought over 20 from Siber (at a higher per-domain price) and so far I've sold ZERO and had only ONE bid.

Those are truly random numbers.

I'm assuming you've priced them quite differently and that may be the difference? Would be tough to find a common thread with out all the details.

But yeah, unless you're selling at wholesale type prices, end-user sales are always quite random, regardless of the TLD.

Nope, the same opening offers on sales venues, and not even counting sales, the Magic 9 have all received offers/interest while the DOA 24 have received a grand total of ONE offer - it's just the random nature of life.

I own a number of 4 letter domains and sold one this weekend for 7k, easy close, contacted me directly.

Strange one here but I'm also got 3 offers on the domain PAPR and I have not responded yet.

I'm trying to figure out why the sudden interest from 3 different parties on this domain.
I have to do some research before I price this one because something is strange to get that many inquiries.
I might have to send it to auction or something.

A quick search shows Powered Air Purifying Respirators so with this virus, it could have something to do with that.

Watch out, as it might be 3 valid offers, but it could also be a nitwit with 3 GD accounts trying to lure you into sending it to auction. Then you get no bids and he wins it at offer.

Almost certainly, and that's the only thing I could think of driving potential demand.

I decided to ignore all 3 offers because they did not meet my 5k threshold, if they want the domain they will have to try harder.

Exactly, and only go to auction when the top bid of the group is at a level you'd be okay to sell it.

Lots of scams, flakes, and deadbeats on GD these days, and the pandemic seems to have imported them in droves.

I had looked at that but that does not explain why I was contacted by 3 separate people this weekend.
That term has been around since the start of this virus crap so why the sudden interest now?

There has to be another explanation.... something cool and funky, maybe a service of some type.

This happens to me regularly, and the vast majority of times this "multi-quick bid" technique is the same person with 3 different accounts just hoping and praying you fall for the scam and send it to auction.

This is a very, very common trick on GD and one that has been reported many times on NP.

I was also contacted directly via email from a generic gmail account

A typical email.... Hey man what you asking for?

I did not respond, in fact I never respond anymore unless its an actual offer.

DomainRecap · Oct 19, 2020

Cue the "I am a broker and I have a 6-figure offer for this domain, but first I will need a certificate of valuation that is available here.... " LOL

Spex · Oct 19, 2020

Over a month old, but looks like a report was recently released about PAPR

https://www.marketwatch.com/press-release/powered-air-purifying-respirator-papr-market-report-with-covid-19-impact-analysis-size-growth-and-research-report-20202026-2020-09-08

Still doesn't explain the sudden interest from multiple randoms though. But it's interesting

MapleDots · Oct 19, 2020

And I got another offer a second ago

Fourth one in 2 days

A nothing offer, someone is trying to steal it but I don't usually get multiple accounts inquiring on the same domain.

Send some of those offers my way!

I get offers from GD in streaks. Some weekends it’s 1 or 2, other weekends it’s a lot more than that. Probably still people looking for great bargains thinking that some people will sell cheap because of the virus.

Spex · Oct 19, 2020

So that's what a GD offer looks like, I haven't seen one in a while. Lucky you

Also found that PAPR is some type of ETF as well

DomainRecap · Oct 21, 2020

Hey, a pair of .CAs on the Sedo list this week.

DomainRecap · Oct 21, 2020

Damn, I need to go driving all day, as everytime go out I get at least one GD lowball offer, and often multiples.

Crossing my fingers the two latest $20 lowballers have more than lint in their pockets.

DomainRecap · Oct 21, 2020

Very weird that the highest bid on NamesPro.ca (almost certainly for EFS.ca) was only $70, so if that horse comes in, it's quite a value.

nafti · Oct 21, 2020

This is one of the weakest weeks in a long time.

DomainRecap · Oct 21, 2020

It was really bad, but that didn't stop everyone from going hard after the scraps. I think I'm out on most of my meagre picks, but some of them are being bid harder than I thought - probably by RLM.

I'm hoping if you never win anything, you'll eventually just quit trying! Then I can go back to getting names for $20.

But I'm sure you still got something, a lot of domains get picked up each week, I only get a handful.

It wasn't efs. I assume people are tired of using systems that don't get anything anyways, especially on a week with nothing worth fighting too hard over.
