Auction Domain Names

[Cush]

I currently have two very good .com auction domain names that I am trying to sell, but am stuggling to find a place to list them. Does anyone have any thoughts as to where I should look to list my names? They should be an easy sell considering the surge in penny auction sites.

Thanks!

Try the major players such as Sedo & Afternic. Then there's forums like NP here or even Ebay if you're that desperate!

Duh, head straight for end user sites. Sedo is best.

Godaddy Premium listings work great if the domain is really good, but they take 30% commission.

You just have to sit back and wait to be contacted.

Yea, this is where my problem lies... I paid a good amount of money out of pocket for these names for a pending deal, which fell through. I am just trying to break even on them.

This is a very good thread. Thank you Cush.

I'm looking for a real auction site too. GoDaddy seems to be a bad idea because of commission rate + they make you wait long for the payment (this is something what I read and heard, is it true?).

And Sedo don't let me start an auction by myself. So you can wait for years till you get a bid or offer, whereas seeing an item in an ongoing auction would attract buyers more.

Ideally I'd like to have a reliable auction site where I can immediately start a one-week or one-month auction with a reserve price, and where I can be paid securely and fast. Please share more info regarding this issue. Thanks.

Which is better on Sedo? Featured listing or Category listing?

Doesn't snapname have some auction like that.

Better to wait for the big conferences and submit your domains to them.
Check out Rick Latona as he might accept your domain and put it in his live auction event held a few times a year.

You can try listing the domains on site point or digital point.
