there's no money in domain names.. this industry full of bullsh*t.
It wasn't a thread, it was a post inside a thread. I hate when mods delete my posts for no reason other than "it makes some people uncomfortable".Threadi isn't closed yet. Maybe you should should study how to close a thread.
@ksusha64Domaining is obviously very profitable and fun for some, but there is lots of misinformation on this forum.
The appraisal section here is a total nonsense and bs. Nobody here would pay 1% of their own appraisal there. People imagine 'endusers' as some sort of 'alien suckers" who would pay 100 times more for a name that domainer would not renew. There are also people registering insanely bad names and getting likes by others. It encourages them to buy more terrible names and lose money.
You need to use your own judgement and read between the lines. Domaining could be life changing for someone who is ready to work hard.
It is a team, but they don't work full-time for me (yet)How many accountants have you got? ?
Indeed, there is too much dreaming in this industry, this is what leads to big disappointment. The problem is that end users are not interested in domainers' dreams. Don't try to reinvent the wheel. Look at what sells, then understand why, then you'll make better purchases. Ignoring consumer demand, buying bad names in nTLDs guarantees that your inventory will not sell, and you will waste time and money.I agree with you all many parts of this industry are full of it, and people are trying to sell you a hoop dream, or picks and shovels to extract crapola. You are right to a degree.
I would love to hear about your 5 figures declines on sub $100 acquisitions, I think we all would, especially in the plural sense.
I think you kind of constitute the bs
portion of his comments, if you can’t back up your statements.
Funny Charlie Sheen use to say the same thing.
There are a few reasons why I'd be a fool to back up my statement (at least not at this time).
In any case, I came here to brag
Don't hate me 'cos I'm winning.

Either your bs’ing or trading in TM names, but good on you. Imaginary sales are the best kind, no commissions!
don't take peoples comments personally. its just that everyone on namepros has seen countless posts of people making statements like you.. wthout backing up.. so people just get tired and bored of it.. and nobody believes them anymore here. cheers.
You sound like Bikini Tara, timing sounds about rightThe domains in questions do not have any clear TM, certainly nothing registered. But sure, I do own names with matching TM's. Some of these are TM under common law, maybe a few have registered and active TM's. That does not mean I'm doing anything wrong or unlawful. It means I'm an awesome domainer that doesn't dabble exclusively in pigeon sh*t domains.
I know how the Internet works baby (pics or it didn't happen). But the premise of this thread has nothing to back it up. That's why I came here to gloat
You're just half right Premiums...I agree, this industry is "full of bullsh*t", but there is money in domain names. I've been self employed since college in 1970, but you might even say I was a budding entrepreneur when I was cutting grass and shoveling snow starting in the late 50's. I've been involved either directly or indirectly in most major industries, and the domain industry is without a doubt the most f'uk'd up starting with the "appraisal" piece, and Go Daddy gets a gold star for that.there's no money in domain names.. this industry full of bullsh*t.
You were join on Nov 2016there's no money in domain names.. this industry full of bullsh*t.

Bought on Sedo for $6k on 16/11/17 (seller began an auction using my counter-offer, but no other bids)
22nd Nov: I got the domain into my account and set up a landing page on hypernames.co - with an asking price of $45k. Had a couple of inquiries within the first few days, but nothing serious.
28th Nov: I had a five-figure inbound offer (via a broker). I countered at $30k, which was accepted.
