I am trying to get a handle on whether various factors have influenced the acquisition practices of domain investors. If you have been in domain investing for more than a year, please vote.

Note that I am asking about the total amount of your acquisition spend, not the price per name, or the number of domain names being bought.

Feel free to comment in the discussion on how your acquisitions are changing, for example same total dollars but fewer, better domain names.

Thank you in advance.

Interesting. For curiosity: how long does it take for you to sell a domain after you buy it?
No fix time at all. Rarely within 24 hours and mostly years.

I have been letting my portfolio dwindle over the years. Hadn't bought much if anything, until this year. I bought a lot this year and reloaded my portfolio with some new names. We shall see if it means more revenue (or losses). Jury is still out

I am spending less now because it really hasn't worked out well for me.
I would recommend to read ebook and to connect with top domainers and learn from the best to be a better domain investor.

I honestly feel like we may need a fresh thread to re-take this poll. In my experience, the cost of acquisition has actually gone down quite a bit whereas it was the opposite for me when I first voted on this thread.

Where are you finding prices dropping? Are you finding less competition in auctions or have you switched acquisition styles?
