Afternic Power Sellers: Do GD-based registrations help generate more sales?

For those that regularly sell at Afternic (at least monthly), do you believe that having/registering domains at GD helps generate more sales (fast-transfer, more exposure)?

I am asking as I will be registering 1000 domains this week - and am hesitating between 3 registrars. The GD rate would be around $0.60 more expensive/domain (+$600 overall). If the domains have higher chances of selling (ex. @Afternic), then it's obviously worth paying a little extra upfront - for the longer-term sales benefits.

IMO nope. More exposure how? As of my understanding everything listed @ Afnic w/ BIN these days gets distributed pretty much everywhere, at least the big ones, GD, NetSol, Register.com, eNom, Tucows etc. But yes, they're (whatever registrars) not part of fast-transfer which might be something to consider (transfer is manual).

I think Dynadot has price of $7.99 (.COM) for the month of June. Maybe consider that? They're part of fast-transfer. But. the domains w/ Dynadot get distributed only after the 60-day period. And registrars that are not part of fast-transfer get distributed right away. Yes, a bit confusing...

As far as I know, all names within their network get the same exposure.

In reference to the 1000 names you are planning to register, I think if you call GoDaddy before proceeding, they might be able to give you a special discount.

Thanks. However, I am not sure there is a better price than the domain discount's club pricing.
