Just curios how the market is for these domains right now.

 

[opalxx]

Lets make sure we put any 3D sales on here (doesn't matter how small) just so the thread will stay open.

bluray3d (.) info sold and payment received. I still think that it is a good buy considering there is nothing else to register for the name.

I haven't been on these forums on a while, and having made good use of my time away, I can open a perspective here, that I don't really care if those who want to stay in their matrix don't accept.

The fact is as domainers of the speculative niche, you not only have to be a low income person, but also need some sort of clairvoyance into the future - and I am not talking about the mystical type.

However, those two characteristics conflict with one another; you can show me all of the 'got lucky' examples you want to contradict that too - but if you have nothing (money) to prove your cunning skills of trend spotting, what gives you the mind to think you have them?

3D is nothing spectacular - we live in it. In fact, it was very kitsch thing until they started putting it in big ticket animated movies just recently, and smaller ticket movies hardly received any praise for following suite. Attempts have been made at producing real-life 3D broadcasts which were terrible to watch; not because of the lack of technology to produce the effect, but because it's very weird to try and watch reality with the intended effect of 3D technology.

So do you really envision a future where the programming is entirely animated, or where the population suddenly loves "real-life 3D" (hey go buy that domain) because of how unlike reality it is? If you do, refer to the aforementioned.

What will likely happen, in descending order of likelyhood, is that: a. the hype will continue its trend of blowing over b. they will invent a technology that is actually somewhat true to reality and trademark it as something else (what's that BluRay stuff?), c. it will become standard on every TV and lose its cache (which only currently exists amongst kitschters and techno-dummies) like those power windows we used to dream of.

So am I just here to troll the people who take the opinions of strangers on the internet too seriously, and think others think the same way about them?

No, I am here with some practical advice.

Dump your 3D names before the bubble pops and focus your effort on something worthwhile.

But would I be a hypocrite to have you take my word for it? Yes, I'm just some internet guy.

So read pages 211 & 212 (at least):

http://books.google.ca/books?id=MtA... DON’T EXPAND THE CIRCLE. WE’LL WAIT.&f=false

If you're only making a few thousand a month, go get a job working for someone for capital of your "ventures".

Enjoy the matrix.

I suggest that you start your own thread so that we can keep this one on topic.

Happy new year.

Maybe do a little research on a topic before spouting off

I have had 3 offers on WM3D.com in the last 6 weeks or so as well and rejected them, 2 in low-mid xxx and one low-ball offer. I think its because of the possible acronyms with these letters

WM3D = Windows Media 3D
WM3D = World Media 3D
WM3D = Windows Mobile 3D
WM3D = WebMaster 3D

At least the offers are picking up, whether it's other domainers or not doesn't make a difference to me, its still shows interest in the 3D names....

Have a great new year everyone

Good one, how did you sell it, sedo, end user etc? I think most of us have good names but lack the skills to market them.

thank god dimensions are limited otherwise in no time they will move to 4D :o

Where did you sell it?

Cuz, I have a couple of Great 3DBluray .COM's for sale & want to know where to post them.

Wow that is a category killer and could be worth far more someday.

For anyone that does not know, 3dprinters are real and fast coming down in price below $1k - they fabricate 3d objects from digital designs or templates right on your desktop, like the replicators in Star Trek. They may transform manufacturing and shipping.

In some ways imo 3dprinter is worth more, since it is the actual appliance you need to buy or share.

Nice sale.

This sale reminded me of this statement:

Now people are in here blowing money on things like 3D modeling and 3D printing domains as if this stuff is coming out for the first time this Christmas. Nobody has wanted these domains for the past decade, and now suddenly there is a rush to buy them and supposedly you are going to resell them for big bucks? This thread is an embarrassment.

This sale reminded me of this statement:

VERY nice touch eyedomainus!!!

 

[snoop]

3dprinting.com was registered 8 years ago and the quote by dubdubdub is talking about people buying names for reg fee that haven't gone in 10 years. If the key term and the highest 3d sale on record is 25k where does that leave the people registering names 8 years too late when the taxi drivers are talking about 3d?

If any old one one or two word name sold for 25k would this justify registering a whole lot of weak terms around it? Eg is 3dprininting.com sells for 25k, does that mean 3d-printing.net is worth something which is the kind of reges we have been seeing?

 

[eyedomainous]

With all due respect, snoop, your statement is very presumptuous. Just more of your opinion, stated as fact.

I'll let dub speak for himself. And, personally, I do need you to tell me what the statement says.

The point here is... the 3D Printing of ten years ago is NOT the 3d Printing of today. That's why 3dprinting.com sold for 25,500 EUR a week ago and not in the 8 years since the name was regged.

This is also the reason many more other 3dprinting names were regged in the last year than in the previous eight.

And, IMO, other names in the same space DO benefit when a "catagory killer" sells for a good price.

Even related names, in a given industry, like printing, are bought-up when a buyer wants a name in the space and "all the good ones are taken".

Beyond, my (or your) opinion... there is plenty of evidence. Here is one week of printing name sales from Sept., 2010:

printingforless.com.cn Sep 15,2010 $600.00
printinghub.com Sep 12,2010 €987.00
superprinting.com Sep 12,2010 $4,000.00
homeprinting.com Sep 11,2010 €3,300.00
easyprinting.com Sep 11,2010 €19,600.00
photoprinting.net Sep 11,2010 $925.00
printing2.com Sep 11,2010 $516.00​

"Easy" was taken so "Super" was bought. Then "Hub". Printing was taken, so Printing2 was bought, and so on.

It does appear that domains like Easy3DPrinting, Super3Dprinting and 3dPrintingHub may be worth something -in part because 3Dprinting sold for a good price.

At the very least, to some... like names are at least worth a shot.

Do you have any evidence to support your opinion to the contrary? Merely stating it as fact does not make it so.

I am finding this thread a useful reference, but I am also having to use the ignore button to filter out the irrelevant comments. Maybe the thread could be kept on topic - it helps if you do not feed trolls.
