Keep seeing a lot of very rude and strange blunt buy requests

Would you reply to request posting this?????

anything sent to me other that what I have asked for will be reported, I will also post on here for people to laugh at too!

Are domainers too desperate to sell ?

Lets discuss ...

It makes little difference to me if someone doesn't conduct themselves well, with regards to a business sale. If you're paying what I want, great. If you want to be nice about it, great

Your gut will tell you if its worth it

Nope, I find it totally ridiculous how some domain buy requests are worded. Rude and cheap.Especially those with budget s like10$....upwards for your best dot com haha. Laughable. Mentally showing them my middle finger.

I have posted WTB threads as a buyer in the past, and I get it...you get flooded with unrelated domains to what you are looking for.

Still, I am not likely to deal with someone who comes out of the gate with an attitude problem be it domainer or end user.

You know the problem with the mental middle finger holding. It only hurts the guy doing the mental stuff. Nobody else feels it :)

There are rude people on both sides, seller or buyer side. Rude person is a rude person. I always try to be nice in all kinds of communications not limited to business.

Buyers want to buy cheap. Sellers send junk names.
It’s a lose lose situation most of the time.

i agree, if it starts rude then negotiations are just going to be worst. I can hold it and sell to something more civil anyway.

I don't get angry at rude people. I accept them as is and move on. They may had a bad day, may be facing financial, health, social, etc. problems or simply being rude can be one of their default settings.

I get angry at the ones who misunderstand my positive efforts to protect not only my but also their interests.
Some people are unable comprehend any positive effort from others in building fairer deals. Probably they do not believe there are good people in the World after dealing with too many bad people.

I have been abused for saying no to $100 offers on various occasions without countering as we aren't starting at the bottom.

In my experience, that section is good for selling rubbish names, & buying less than average names.

No shortage of names out there, the best names are for sale everywhere, no need for these threads.

If it's addressed to me I answer them with a sentence that makes them forget their English and answer with 3 spelling mistakes per word, and I walk away

I just don't reply to them. Some people were beginners in domaining and was looking to buy xxx domains(by NP standard) for 10. I just said thanks but no.

No I just read the threads for a laugh. Very few actually buying here very few have the budget they claim.Total waste of time and yeah I want a b c and d criteria for $10 to $100 is typical here and delusional. You want a good name? Stop being a cheapo.

Agreed, the ''Buying'' section is a waste of time, whether the buyer is rude or not. I kinda understand where some of these buyers are coming from with anger and threats to report irrelevant names - they probably get some 200+ copy/pasted list of domains from some of the public here, no matter what they ask for. So, they kinda try to ''discourage'' certain people from doing so.
However, it does not deny the fact that 99% of so-called ''buyers'' are looking for good stuff not even for peanuts, but for peanut peels.
They are not gonna buy for ''wholesale'' price as they claim, they need an ultimate liquidation price. Type of price that you would only accept if you just won the 50 million lottery, decided to go to a tropical island for the rest of your days, to lay in the hammack, slowly scratching your balls. Then for sure, before doing this, you may want to liquidate your carefully collected thru years portfolio to the ''buyers'' of NamePros.

Who in their mind will sell a domain intended for the end user for xxxx to some prick for $20? Who would sell their BB or SQ domains for 1% of their estimated cost?

The only 1% shot you have is for someone who needs something very specific for a certain project or for a client.

If the request isn't nice, wordings or whatever, I simply ignore it.

FYI,

Here
Every letter is a vowel
Every name is pronounceable
Every name is brandable
Every name is one word dictionary
________________________________________________
A lot of people wanted one word dictionary for $500-$1,000
SH, BB, BP approved names
and a lot of people said "PM sent"
________________________________________________

The domain business is about to come to an end....
