I bought them. This thread said both bought and sold, so I'm just saying I bought these names through GoDaddy. Am working on two more acquisitions as we speak; Quotron.com and FinancialPlanning.org
I remember quotron sys.

Thanks

can u plz comment if overall based on your trials so far you find that setting low or lower bin prices on afternic increases sold names percentages? if so then is the increase considerable? i guess in the end it is still the old age dilema whether it is best to sell 10 names for $100 bin each and make $1000 or wait to sell one or a few of them for $1000 bin each...

Yes definitely. Works great on Make offer landing pages when I counter with a lower asking price and also works great when I set lower BIN on Sedo and Afternic.
The reason is that some people don't have a good budget and by setting high BIN prices or countering with high price those leads are not converted to sales. I have rejected so many low offers on my average domains and didn't hear from those people again but whenever i lowered prices for those domains after some time the domains got sold quickly. Happened many times.
I remember once i got a price request on Afternic (the time when i was not using BIN for my domains). I set 2K USD price for that. It was an average $79 dropcatch domain. Nothing happened. I removed the 2K BIN after few weeks. Then after a couple of months i set a high XXX BIN and the domain got sold in the next few days. I think that person was informed about the price drop and he immediately bought it.

Now my strategy is to set lower BIN's on my average domains and will stick to higher pricing for my good domains so that i don't leave money on the table...

There were a couple of ~$700-1500 domains sold in 2019 as well, just a few.
In all sales on Afternic they charged 20% commission (prices shown above are gross sale prices)
Afternic minimum price list is $50 for buy now, for your information.
Most domains were purchased from expireddomains.net website when they became available(I mean I bought on other registrars' websites, but found out they became available at expireddomains.net)

P.S. Sometimes looking at Estibot valuations for some domains, I feel like I had to keep listing prices at least ten times higher, but thankful still ;)

too many letters, could be typos. but I tried..


Nice work mate although no big sales but multiple little sales still count. How did you manage to find the target buyers? Did they come to you or you went out there and search for them? Cheers

So far my efforts to connect with potential buyers have not resulted in sales.

Thanks!

Should I not put dot in the domain name here but rather slash?
Thanks

The slashes help keep the name from being indexed in Google and other search engines. This helps keeps your buyer from seeing what you paid for it. Also keeps future buyers unaware of tis purchase price if they are ever resold. Not perfect, but helps.

Name: Alloy/yed.com

Sale price; $36,000

Hold time: 15 months

Total cost
: $17

This was a moonshot. The inquiry came inbound from an Epik SSL lander. I asked for $100K and the negotiation took months. For the right buyer, it is $100K. This buyer did not have that. We settled at $36K.

Domains ending with "ed" are popular. They are past participle form of verbs. These domains make great brandables. If folks have them, happy to check them out.
wow

I understand ed is the past of a verb? but two y !!!?

I think the verb is alloy -using two metal together

Sold a golden ‘oldie of my domains. Set the price low for this domain and left a lot of money on the table but will allow me to hang on too many quality domains for the upcoming downturn covering a few months of renewals until the next sale…

Domain: GoSwordfish (com)

Venue: Sedo

Price: $2499

BTW… Sedo has done great lately….
Have you parked your names in sedo?

Thanks.

Expired domain -- it is actually the same expiry stream that is active here today:

https://nameliquidate.com/
https://marketplace.epik.com/daily-diamonds

For example, someone on NP recently picked up the domain name Multi/plied.com from our expiry auction recently and now has a legit 5 figure offer. It is another domain ending in "ED".

I see more "ED" domains in expiry now so they will be coming through those auctions soon. Daily Diamonds has the deals for sure. Some folks are doing great flipping names from there. Happy for them.

Sorry I want to get something clear

Did someone actually submit Multi/plied.com as a domain he/she chose to liquidate?
