There is a time limit of 9 months before you can resubmit (unless you ask manually for a reconsideration).

Login to your back office.
Go to the Domains tab.
Click on the 'submitted' button
Click on any domain that is not accepted.

This takes you to a list of all of your domains submitted that were not accepted. The last column tells you either how long you have left until you can resubmit or provides you with a tick box to resubmit.

Hi,
What's the domain name and also the member who is selling it.
Also when was the domain rejected?
I know BrandBucket gives you an option to resubmit rejected domains after several months, but just curious to know the time line that domain was resubmitted and possibly approved.

Not sure when it was resubmitted, saw it by chance browsing names for sale.

@iAchilles I bought it in GD Closeouts in July 2016. I wasn't aware it had been submitted in the past until I just saw your post today.

Thanks for letting me know. From my perspective as a BB customer, it's annoying to see this type of inconsistency with their selection process and it cost me money too. 2015 BB published domains were trading higher, I can't recall who I sold it to but it went very cheap. Sure, we're only talking 20-$30 difference but repeat this over 20 and 100 submissions and it adds up fast.

Anyway, I've no plans to submit any further names, that's a decision unrelated to this.

Domain evaluation is subjective and trends can change. That's why BB has a procedure for resubmitting names for a second look. Usually they are rejected a second time but once in a while they get accepted after a second look.

There is nothing perfect in domaining. Not Estibot, Mike Mann or Drew Roesner. Non-liquid, domain value is in the eye of the beholder and two domainers will rarely agree. This is doubly true with brandables.

Does anyone know how to change the price of a listed name? Do I have to contact the customer support?

@guilty You just go into your control panel, find the domain, click Edit Domain Details, and you can adjust +/- 20% from the suggested price.

This same thing happened to me. When I asked, I was told things change all the time so sorry it happened:(

OK BB spokesman. I would love to get the list of all 191 members of your bb group and add them with krell Margot and boxador and see how many sales are left for the little guy over the last 6 months.
I am on Slack too:) And NO , I dont get any benefits at ALL just because my account qualified for being on Slack As for sales since 2015 ,I had three names sold of which all came in 2016 (2 in June2016 and one in Dec2016) and all handregs. Of course there are a lot of things I send as feedback to BB and as I always say, the choice is with the seller. If the seller thinks it is good then he should use if not then he should leave it. I am not happy at all with how things are and I made it known many times on Slack, here too.

I had some names like this, but I have noticed that if the person who submits has a few hundred names or 100% of the accepted names are listed, then there are big chances to be accepted. I had one keyword+suffix which was rejected and after a few month, somebody else has submited the same name and it was accepted at 2.8k. I think that they are acting like somebody who thinks that they are on the summit and nobody can touch them, but I think that this will come back to them very fast.

Once they told me things change from time to time , I said OK no problem:) .Nothing more to do or argue about or lose energy for. There are a lot more important things to dk than complaining to them :)

25% I think this number is a little low, Also don't forget to highlight boxador for another big percentage of the sales I dont keep track of Margot or the rest of the brand bucket team or THERE SPECIAL BB SLACK GROUP that you are not in. In my opinion, the brand bucket squad makes majority of the sales for them while collecting fees from the little guys to put towards there advertisements so they can sell THERE STUFF!!! I also can tell you the brandbucket crew and Micheal krell gets SPECIAL PLACEMENT FOR HIS DOMAINS AND SO DOES THE REST OF THE GROUP. To the little guy do your self a favor create a efty page or get your own landers. Deal with your own leads. Dont give these guys your money so they can sell there stuff first. My brandbucket experience sucks! I don't recommend them

Speaking of Mr.Krell getting special placement , let me give you this : The following domains are his and are currently featured on the homepage of BB:

Co/Ratio
Cactus/Rose
Real/Pivot
Capital/Bell
Rebela
DripDrops
ZenFam
OkCycle
Track/Pixel

Of 20 names featured , 9 are owned by Mr.Krell , 1 is owned by one of their Ambassadors , 1 is under privacy. Attached screen shot of featured names as of NOW. Of course hardcore BB supporters will not like this, I like BB but I dont like this too, but truth must be told. I had great and at times intense discussion with avid BB lovers in Slack when I brought this up a couple of months ago. Any name featured, even if it is mine, was getting better replacement in all the keywords assigned to that name. Another member on Slack showed that 40% of search results showed Margot and Krell's , and their Ambassadors domains in the first page. Example of featured names getting better placement than others? I showed many on Slack and here is another one. Simply search for UP names, then you get names like

Upcentive , Privacy , Upsmith, UpEditor, privacy,

Uptivo , Upvera , UpViva, UpSpell (Ambassador's name)

Uphatch (Ambassador's name)

Upliva ( Margot )

Krell's Names

Upbeast
, Uptos , Uplance, UpSharply ,Uperation , UpMeasure, Uplon, UpTheGut,
InfluenceUp , ShapesUp , Upvon , UpSly, SoftenUp, FluffUp, UpGears, SpendUp , BuilderUp

So guys , of 48 names displayed in a 67% screen display(so five names are returned in each row) , Mr.Krell owns 17 in first page, that is not counting the privacy names.

One ambassador owns 4 Names while another owns 1 . Margot owns 1 . So that is 23 names ( many under privacy I didnt count ) for Krell, Margot, and two Ambassadors out of 48 names returned when I searched using the keyword "UP "

The names I made bold are names I am 100% sure were featured names. On the other hand, I have 6 UP names which were published , before some of the names I made bold but they are in nowhere to be seen.

I talked about this on Slack as did another guy and only got defense from BB supporters while the concerned people of the company simply ignored but , I would say one thing to avid BB supporters, when you see such data it is really really important that you acknowledge and for once agree something is not right. This was just a small sample of 1626 names classed as having "UP" so imagine what might happen with other keywords.

So for Krell to sell more names is very very understandable under these search results. If I get 17 names in one search ALONE, I am sure I will sell more.

BB supporters are thinking that what they are doing it's 100% right, because they think they will get something extra featured or some free credits, but before you sell yourself for peanuts you should think if it's worth it. I wonder what they will do without BB, how can they survive in the domaining jungle without the comfort if some free help. It's like defending Trump and saying that the humankind will not survive without him and ignore what the rest of 99% of the population it's thinking. Now BB it's something like a Trump of the domaining, when they act like they are the bread of the industry and we will not survive without them.

The whole BB marketplace is screwed by their own people because of greed.

Earlier they used to accept very few names. They were giving free credits by voting for domains which they stopped because for them money wasn't flowing in.

They become greedy and expanded their marketplace and accepted thousands of mediocre domain names. This brought them a lot of listing fees. These domains eventually got buried in that ocean.

Now that the domain marketplace is already flooded with thousands of domains, they are accepting less domain names.

But again greed can't be stopped. They started something called as growth program. This way you can submit unregistered or closeout domain name for $1 each submission. They may either accept or reject. Mostly again these domains will get rejected because they want to keep the money flow in. This way they will also reduce the number of domain submissions in the marketplace.

With front page already taken by their own people, to me it hardly seems like they are doing anything special to sell those domains which are sitting idle for more than 2 years. But you will listen folks saying "hey a domain which was registered a month ago got sold today for xxxx, you know its a great name".

What seemed like a Quality marketplace is now a Quantity marketplace. Numbers game.

Then again BB supporters would jump in here every time you talk anything negative about BB. O_o

So for Krell to sell more names is very very understandable under these search results. If I get 17 names in one search ALONE, I am sure I will sell more.

Following up on my post above , I decided to check the second page of the results :

2 under privacy
3 owned by Ambassadors.
1 Margot
1 is mine


Krell
  1. SchemeUp
  2. ElevateUp
  3. FuseUp
  4. AdjustUp
  5. UpBonus
  6. Upclix
  7. Hoverup
  8. UpCruise
  9. SuitsUp
  10. UpBloom
  11. CoachedUp
  12. StorageUp
  13. UpModern
  14. UpHandle
  15. UpAvenue
  16. FiberUp
  17. AccountUp
  18. UpCapsule
  19. Uplandia
  20. UpHabit
  21. UpSavvy
  22. UpVis
  23. UpFader
  24. Uptimus
  25. UpVos
  26. UpBunny
So for the second page, of 48 names, Mr.Krell owns 26 names , I own 1 name, Margot owns 1 , and the Ambassadors own 3 so the house owns 26+1+3 = 30 names of 48 displayed.

When you own 43 names of the first 2 pages of a 96 names, you bound to expect sales and top them too, specially when a marketplace has 44K+ names.

Uplance (MK) is the first result returned when I search 'Up' @ $4,995....

Yet, they rejected Uphance when I submitted it.

They should have accepted. The data I posted is based on default filters.
