Domainers common challenge is liquidating the inventory when cash is needed.

Is domainers benefit from having a platform to auction their inventory anytime without paying any auction submission fees..

The side-effect of allowing free auction submissions, is anyone can submit any names , could leads to the quality challenges.

The other hand, it benefits the genuine domainers who can find a model for constant cashflow.

Appreciate your vote and also if you can leave your comments too :)

Godaddy auctions is free platform for anyone to submit (as long as he has a membership) their names for auction.

Almost all auction sites are free to submit. Flippa is the only one I know of that charges for listings.

Besides most free-listing are much better than Flippa, I have a bad experience with Flippa and in my opinion, domain trading in Flippa is not worth it.

Not really.. to be honest not aware of any free auction submission sites. Fully aware of all marketplaces but clearly unaware of the free auction submission sites, specially a domainer can just go and order a domain name into auction any time ( a self-service option), I am not talking about free auction events..etc. You have every reason to feel suspicious, but this is the honest response.

Sorry if you feel so , its never the intention. I will refrain from posting on this thread further, I will wait for the poll to be completed on its own. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, I never realised it will be interpreted the that way.

Afternic doesn't have a push to auction option.
Sedo charges 59 euros for direct listing in an auction (not talking about the special auctions where you have to send them domains for approval)

Then what the person above listed is true. All of those are free to list.

I do notice you said portfolio, not domain tho. Maybe you're talking about a single auction for multiple domains then, I wouldn't know where you can do that and what the policies on that are.

so it’s not free; you pay annual fees.

Plus the process is complex. DaaZ easiest for me.

and 100% free of the membership fees, that nonsense.

A Damn good one!

@DaaZ listens to the people.

i voted Yes. Been rooting Daaz while!
This will facilitate growth imo. Support little guys.
My one time DaaZ auctions; auctioned off LLLL.com, and paid SAME DAY. Compare that to days Godaddy! Nothing beats “free” And certainly catering to community.

Hi

"is domainers"?


imo...

“Domainer” Not really a dictionary word?

You want Domaineers? Even more awkward. Nice try...

Flippa is the worst out of all of them.
