How did you chose this name?
Did you like it as you scroll from a list, or some other criteria? Even your other .co chnge
Do you also register brandble typos. I understand these are popular in .coms on brandable platforms

icon/ico is a dictionary word in some language so i registered it as a hack.
And i register brandable in .co only in rare exceptional cases not generally.

$600
Sedo
inbound at BIN
price
hand reg on discount promo so nice ratio :xf.smile:
hold time about 3 months

Sold yesterday. Incredible speed from Sedo -- was just over 12 hr from sold until it was transferred and I was paid in my PayPal.

This is my first .link sale (I started investing in some this summer, all at discounted hand reg).

I had slightly decreased the BIN a few days earlier, not sure if that had an impact. I also had changed where lander pointed (the lander was not at Sedo before or after, but guess buyer preferred to buy there).

I have no idea whether buyer views it for the extinct bird, as do do!, or the myriad of ways the term has come to be used. I probably should have researched it more on acquisition and setting BIN price. It is taken in 187 TLDs, some for sale at big prices. Oh well, I am happy with my return.
Good and congrats...
How much is sedo commission from the sale??????????

Congrats! B/u/i/l/d/i/f/i/c was originally registered by me back in 2016 and I sold it in 2018 to another domainer. It seems that it was dropped later. I should have kept it lol :D
@Keith DeBoer For a possible podcast story on "liquidator's remorse"? :P

Alhamdullahi. Thanks to Allah. First sale on SH.

SH registered.

SH portfolio size: around 55 [Creative+SH owned]

Handreg coined out of the blue:

AUVERO/king

Now a developed techy site within few days of purchase.

Also want to thank Rob of Epik; he's being a good guy.

I was thinking the same. It's pretty much robbery for SH to take like 75% in commissions..

@alcy @alienbaba That remuneration formula makes sense if it was a SH-registered domain. There are different ways to submit domains on SH.

Nah, if you know the terms of the payment and accept it, that's on you. Good for the seller for their 1st ever sale(and hopefully many more to come.)

It does make me wonder if the sale happened because it was listed on SH and found through their marketplace or if the person landed on their landing page. Always had been a bit skeptical about brandable marketplaces and their high commissions, but if it works, it works.

How does that work? I figured that 25-30% was just standard. Wasn't aware there were different options.

Basically, a user can suggest domains that are unregistered and SH register them and give you around 25% of the sale amount if it's sold. So the seller did not spend any money on this domain, only his time thinking about names.

SH is paying the reg fee for this and the renewals until it will sell...so the $700 is just because he came up with the idea of the domain, SH has done the rest of the work.

@KTC That's because you haven't read the Terms and Conditions. 25-30% is only standard if YOU own the domains you've listed. Otherwise it's essentially the other way around if you had Squadhelp register the domains you've submitted for approval and that were approved. See screenshot attached.

Thank you both for your answers. That's a very solid ROI for thinking of a name that eventually sold. I can't knock that hustle.

Gotcha. Can't knock that at all. Making cash and not having to pay for it sounds great. I'd just be more skeptical on actually getting paid for it, but glad it works for someone out here.

yea exactly. nice trick they use to force people to use their landers. if u had it on dan or bodis lander or other cheap ones it would sell too

that's how they make their cash...cause most people do not realize that they know that by forcing u to their lander u will never question or say...damn I could have sold it for less fee on my own lander.

seriously... 700 out of 2700...that's an insult .. I couldn't sleep at nite if company did this to me. I already take sleeping pills when gd takes 20%

Now, that I can agree with. I have a supremely hard time wanting to give up that kind of data that could help me make decisions.

You got the point. The terms and conditions of the company are obviously clear on that type of sale. Nevertheless, domainers should be proactive to see value in their names and ensure to register them. The seller is happy with the sale for the income, but he will learn to invest more with the income. Thank you all for your open-minded contributions.
