discuss Afternic Suggestion: Enhancing Afternic Broker Negotiations with Seller-Added Domain Facts

[AMRO1001]

Do Afternic brokers use specific domain name facts effectively to negotiate the price with potential buyers?

Why not add a Note field to each domain where the seller can include interesting facts to help the broker negotiate the price with the buyer?

For example, similar sales, the meaning of the domain if it is not in English, potential uses, etc.

You are lucky if Afternic even bothers to let you know when someone has made an offer!

That's the strategy for a lander, not the broker.

The ''free'' Afternic brokers do not reach to no one, from what I know, they get inquiries and go from there. This means the customer already kinda checked and liked the name for his reasons, which makes this ''note'' field pretty useless.

The type of info you are suggesting could help the buyer justify paying several thousand for a name, instead of the $100 or $500 they initially planned to budget to acquire the name.

I've spent much time pondering this question as well as many others regarding the elusive 'brokers'...it's best for us to not look behind the curtain.
