AmericanCenters.com

Plural, not niche specific...could be used for a ton of things. One example would be for commercial real estate developers i.e a company that develops mixed use retail centers across the US.

low-mid xxx

Thanks for your opinion. However, I don't plan on selling it for less than low x, xxx. Considering the annualized renewal costs, even if I was the original owner low xxx or mid xxx would be unacceptable given the amount of money already invested in the name.

U quoted everything that has American in it with no regards to the rest of of the domain lol

Look, your comps are a bit more niche specific than my name, that does not discount them from the valuation but, makes them less relatable due to the fact that both are less commercial and more limited. Headquarters is very limited and institutes seems like it would be better in .org, not to mention it is a more research/education oriented word.

There are a lot of $xxxx sales with "centers" being the 2nd word BUT. the problem is, American and Centers don't go along well.. American Centers for what mate? imo

American Centers for anything. I gave one example of a group of mixed use commercial retail centers. It's not niche specific.

Sorry, but I don't think it makes much sense.
As for the retail centers example / idea, it looks like AmericanRetailCenters.com has never been registered before, and to me it's even better since it's specific.

BritishCenters.com is in use by a place in the UAE, and they simply hand registered it last year. So on the off chance (very slim chance, in my opinion) that within the next year some random business wants yours and is willing to pay a premium for it, I would probably price it around $750.

You can hand register BritishCenters.co.uk, CanadianCenters.ca, CanadianCenters.com, AustralianCenters.com.au, etc.

Also looks like buydomains has had centersofamerica.com for a loooong time
http://www.hosterstats.com/historicaldns.php?domain=centersofamerica.com
Right now, it's listed for 1k on godaddy, 664 min offer.
http://www.retailcentersofamerica.com/

Thanks for your appraisal Jaco. You provide some relevant points, however, there have been only 73 reported sales of "Canadian"+anything and 47 sales of British+Anything, so I'd be wary of buying those combinations...the levels of liquidity are minimal in comparison to American+Anything which has 471 reported sales. With that said I don't find it reasonable to even consider the other two combinations because they are of largely lesser quality, You'll see plenty of businesses with the word American at the start but British and Canadian? Not so much...and that comes down to demographics, overall capitalization of the markets with respect to each country, liquidity, brandability and overall feasibility of use in the open markets. You're always somewhat thorough in your appraisals however, your overall outlooks are relatively skewed given the fact that your appraisal focuses on an analysis of unsold names of lesser quality, which you use to tailor your appraisal into a valuation that suits your own predetermined conclusion.

My honest appraisal for this domain.

Reseller: low $xx to high $xx.. optimist re-sellers who can't differentiate between good and bad domains determine the value of a domain based on 'comparable' sales and age. They will pay up to $99 for this.

End-user: I will be shocked if an end-user buys this domain. But I have sold crappy domains to end-users too and it rarely happens, but no end-user will pay more than high $xxx for this one, honestly.

You wanted an appraisal, you got one, an honest one, from the one and only, the best domainer of the end-times.

 

[slader23]

Yeah, I wouldn't register British--, Canadian--, etc. for investment, unless it was really great. I was just saying that no one even has bothered to register BritishCenters or CanadianCenters because it's a combination that is rare and does not normally stand on its own.

The number of reported sales for American+X doesn't really matter, especially if your own combination makes little sense. I mean I could gather data from namebio, find the most common keywords at the beginning and end of domains, then throw them all together and find some really bad domains that have high ranking keywords. It might actually be an okay method for finding domains to register or buy if you know how to choose ones that makes sense. But there are probably much better ways.

The point was that they are using retailcentersofamerica.com because it actually describes they're company. CentersOfAmerica is too vague.
But here's an example of one where they are using the shortened version of their brand name "American Central Transport, Inc."
http://www.americancentral.com/
And the BritishCenters.com company name is "British Lasik & Cosmetic Surgery Center", of which they have two.

This could happen with yours too, I guess. Maybe a company named "American Centers for Rehabilitation, Inc." could want this domain, but it seems unlikely that something like that will ever happen. (plus they have to want it badly enough to pay you $500+, or per your expectations, 1k+)

Thanks for the added insight. There are many "American Centers", I will likely be targeting mixed use retail center developers as this name fits the kind of commercial offerings they would have in their portfolio. As an example, I recently contacted the owner of Word+Center/s.com and was told that my offer was too low because they would be using the domain for a group of mixed use commercial retail centers. Thanks for the first link though :D, thats one end user though http://americanfinancetrust.com/#, buys exactly the type of real estate properties I am talking about. In simpler terms, I am going to be targeting developers/REIT's/Real estate companies that own or are planning to develop groups of mixed use commercial retail i.e shopping centers/malls. I'll probably ask $5k and settle in the $2-$4k range.

Thanks for your opinion. Next time post your actual opinion first rather than trolling my thread with nonsense. You told me this name was crap in the chat, so there is also a log of your actions. I'm not saying there is malice in your appraisal but heed your words carefully. I saw your post coming a mile away.

You're welcome.

You're right, I should've posted the appraisal in my first post. But as @todaygold explained to you, my post was not irrelevant, that post was posted in order to explain that "a bad domain is simply throwing together words, like you did".

American and Centers don't go along well. When you go to namedroppers.com and paste "american centers" in the search box, you will understand what that post meant, there are american accident centers, american acne centers, american addction centers, or
american centers for trial avocacy, or american centers of cardiology etc. But "AmericanCenters" are just 2 words thrown together and AmericanCenters.com can probably be a directory of all kind of American centers but nothing more than that, imo.

 

[slader23]

What is predetermined, is ones love for the domain, for which they can't get a refund. I have experienced this, don't worry you'll get over it, it's just $79.

Your valuation was predetermined. You told me in the chat "AmericanCenters is crap" and then you posted even more crap on my thread , like I said you've gotta be more sly with your intentions. Never leave an opening to exploit your mistakes. Again, I appreciate your appraisal, you brought added insight and information.

I'm going to lock this until a moderator/administrator has a chance to review it. I can't lend a hand here at the moment.

Update: Opened again.
