Debate and Discuss.

Topic:
Domain purchase requests below $10.00

Example:
When someone posts "Looking to buy domain names" from BB and SH.
Paying $1.00 to $5.00 per domain.

There are many more examples that Name Pros members have ranted about.
Share a some of your own examples.

Question 1:
Should Name Pros remove offers like these altogether?

Question 2:
Does this type of request give Name PROS the appearance of being a
"Less than PRO forum"?

Would love to hear your feedback!​

Hello,

A couple things to keep in mind:

1. Buyers sometimes buy domain names in bulk that are otherwise worthless; they use them for purposes where the quality of the domain name and their expiration date do not matter.
   • So, if you have 10 expiring domains that you're not going to renew and a buyer is willing to buy them from you for $9, you may bulk transfer the 10 domains and pocket the $9 (or, perhaps, buy a new domain with it that you will renew).
2. The buyer requests can be filtered so that you never see $10 or less. For example, you can view only budgets that are greater than $5000.

Typically, it's not healthy for a market to limit what can be done within it as long as it can serve some legal purpose.

We hope that helps.
