Just refused an opening offer of $5000 for a nGtld.
Good or Bad only time will tell.

This is what I want to study, the value of a nGtld to a end user.

You turned down a $5k offer on a $9k BIN domain, is that correct?
Why would you flat out reject as opposed to meeting in the middle at $7.5k?
Of course you should. And also brag about some $xx,xxx name sales you made but can't tell what the names are. It'll even be better if you say they were in some obscure new gtld too. Especially ones that have a 'very light' sales history of.I rejected multiple offers today. I can't say the offer prices, or domain names.
Should I start an individual thread to discuss it?

Why do you guys harbor suspicion, just because it was not reported on some website or talked about in here does not mean sales don't happen, you just don't know....
In general, I've just found it ironic that gTLD sales claimed often have a shroud of secrecy to them. Not just in this case, but in general. It seems counter productive. For example, if I was selling .net domains like hot cakes, wouldn't I want to put my sales out there to show the rising demand and help drive up industry pricing even more? We always hear that all of the best gTLDs are taken anyway, so why the secrecy?
Statistically speaking...
.graphics
Registrations: 6,844
Sales over $5,000: 0 (just yours for $25k)
Probability of selling a .graphics over $5,000 is 1/6844 = 0.014% (1 in 6,844)
.group
Registrations: 69,442
Sales over $4,000: 8
Probability of selling a .group over $4,000 is 8/69442 = 0.011% (1 in 8,680)
.tours
Registrations: 11,519
Sales over $5,000: 0 (just your offer of $10k)
Probability of selling a .tours over $4,000 is 1/11519 = 0.0086% (1 in 11,519)
So let's say you have 100 of these gTLDs, which it looks like you do not. Even if you owned 100, after 5 years, statistically you should only sell 0.012 domains. So the likelihood that that you've sold 3 in 5 years at this price level is extremely unlikely unless you own about 25,800 gTLDs. Do you own 25,800 gTLDs?
Even if we said 90% of domains sales are not reported, which I don't believe is true, then statistically you would still need about 2,580 gTLD domains to make this true. At that point you would be paying about $51,600 (2,580 domains * $20 per year) per year in renewals , so it wouldn't really matter anyway.
I'm not harboring suspicion. I'm just saying you are one of the luckiest men alive!

I agree with you here, but sometimes it take time to provide the data and in some instance you cannot because of a NDA. That does not mean you doubt the capabilities of other domainers and their methods of sale.Most of us are here to learn through information sharing. When you provide a data that can't be processed the aim is defeated.
It would have been better to wait when you can provide some info or avoid sharing what you don't want to share.
I don't doubt you, just hungry to learn.That does not mean you doubt the capabilities of other domainers and their methods of sale.

Out of 400+ sales over $1,000 I’ve had 0 people ask for a NDA.
...embarrassment factor??Interesting how almost all ngTLD buyers seem to insist on NDAs...
Why embarassment factor? I have read recently here on Namepros that you yourself have made some smaller sale of .xyz domain, I guess it was 3 worder for approx 3000 (if my memory serves me well). So should your buyer be embarassed, or what do you mean?...embarrassment factor??
Go right ahead...can I have 1 public guess of keyword (just for fun) which you will confirm whether it is this one or not, or you prefer to keep it private?
Did you? Really?Out of 400+ sales over $1,000 I’ve had 0 people ask for a NDA.
Did you? Really?
So its all about pro badges and post count in hereWhy yes I did. All disclosed with actual proof to NamePros for my Pro application.
