.tv Daily .TV Drop Lists (Pending Deletes)

[MicroGuy]

Does anyone know of a good source for daily .TV drop lists?

I've been creating my own which is time consuming. It would be nice to find a site offering a daily list available for download.

Ahead.tv is a great resource for thr drops but be warned that anything decent is away within about 2 minutes of the drop.
I've went out of my way all this week to see the drops and in that time i seen about 5 domains i liked (that had not been made premium after the drop) by the time i went to reg them, they were gone to the same NP members who get the majority.

You dont get ANY time to sit and think, anything decent is gone within 60 seconds (no exaggerating at all there)

Its not so bad in the UK as drop time is 9 in the morning, though that still is VERY early to somebody like me who has no set hours.

Good Luck! %%-

Thanks + rep added.

I see nudes.tv dropping today but it's a premium. I wonder if DM will jack it up after the drop. Hmmm?

 

[seren007]

Nudes.tv = $2000

Don't know what it was before.

 

[treebytheriver]

enom is out of control. They made "expat" a premium name, $1500 per year.

Ronnie the list is made available at 4:01, if there are good names Polin has already regged them. I lucked out the drops did not happen for 4 days and got Experts.tv. You need to have the list before 4 am eastern so you can try to reg right at 4, getting the list at 4:01 means you will never get the great drop.

 

[treebytheriver]

I have a question, how do they get this info? Is it a special software database that they have designed?

 

[equity78]

ENOM API I believe Heidi.

EQ i knew that part so i was never expecting the best domains, i do know of a decent number of good domains that have slipped through the 2,3 NP members who get most of them.

If anyone picks up a Geo on the drops then PM me if your looking for a quick flip. %%-

Is there any particular reason why the list will be realised a minute after the names have dropped ?? I am guessing that the site is run by someone who is grabbing some of the best names the moment they drop ??

Thanks anyway for the heads up about the site - its one I have heard many times of but never got round to visiting.

Polin, which is the admin of ahead.tv, is also a very active catcher.
So yes, he is ahead lol

I owned Nudes.tv - It was $1750 before and now it is $2k.

I also owned Hardcore.tv which was $3k and dropped last week and now is $4,500.

Surprisingly reasonable raises IMO

 

[TheBulldog]

Actually, I don't see them as reasonable, I see them as a money grab.

IF DM had half a brain, they would raise the prices all they want, but they would advertise the shit out of tv in order to raise awareness.

Raising with no push by the "marketer" of the extension is just stupid.

 

[equity78]

I agree with you Bulldog, but I do not think Demand Media perceive themself anywhere close to how some domainers perceive them. I think they look at .tv as a line they carry and not their top line or their main focus. I think after there were not 500,000 CHannel Me regs and people building channels that .tv went to the lower rung of things on their agenda. Again IMO

 

[TheBulldog]

I agree with that as well. just the constant upping of pricing is hurting things.

Oh well, another day, another.......scotch.

 

[equity78]

Oh absolutely, someone lost their mind. Because LLL.tv have always been $500 a year, if one wants to argue that $500 is a joke then that's fine. IMO that was reasonable with the min wholesale for a .com being $7000 to $8000. But now these lunatics are making LLL.tv $5000, $10,000. MGM.tv dropped obvious limited use and they made it $10,000. MGM could have regged it 8 years ago so they are not putting up $10,000. Anyone else interested has a potential UDRP unless they have a legitimate business using the acronym MGM. They are lost at Demand Media IMO, they just want the market to get better so they can go public and Rosenblatt and the VC can cash out. I have no problem with that been around that business a lot longer than domains. But they should have a clue at marketing an extension. AGAIN IMO

 

[MicroGuy]

Totally agree regarding premium pricing.
