Everybody wants premium names but check the budgets in domains wanted

[biggie]

just want to bring this up, again

if you want premium names, then expect to pay premium prices


you don't want certain letters or only want specific numbers or want the name to end in "ie" only.....then you gotta pay extra for the extra criteria


you want names with pr, traffic and ppc earnings, you gotta pay extra for those too

also, it's trickery to post that you got $10k budget for the right name, but every offer you make on a qualified submission is only $250

increase the budgets!!!

Hi

seems like nothing much has changed over the years.

I'm looking for a one-word .com
my budget is $50 and up to $100 if the name is really good.
Please don't send me junk names.

Hi

that's a good example that i've seen posted more than once!

when reading such a request,
you wonder if the OP really expects to get submissions at that range, because they don't know that such criteria commands higher pricing?
or if the OP is knowledgeable about such values, but just making a crap shot, in hopes of snagging a decent name for low price?

I stopped reading the domains wanted section years ago. I don't have the time to read thru all the crap, eliminate all the crap, leaving nothing to read. I don't have an easy solution to stop all this nonsense either. Maybe stricter rules. Like. First post gets a stern warning. Second post gets a ban from NP. That might help clean it up Another might be to have a private sub-forum where you need an invitation to join. Where you don't get any warnings. First post gets you banned from the sub-forum. Where you have a right to appeal.

Hi

bumping this thread
to reflect on current DN wanted requests, along with the criteria and budgets they have for each DN Wanted pos

are the budgets within range of reasonable discounts
or are they absurdly lower than replacement cost for that same domain?

what's your thoughts

imo...

I think people are using the "wholesale/reseller" tactic as a way to get 5k+ names for $50.

It's being manipulated at this point.

Dang! Even pawn shops have more integrity than domainers(Some).

As a newbie coming to Namepros, seeing those posts really surprised me. Is the registrar valuation a lie? Aren't they professionals knowing what they are doing? IMHO, it creates a sense of distrust that is likely not deserved for the domains appraised at those high levels.
Perhaps before someone posts their buying request, they may want to reflect a bit more on what message ultimately it sends to other potential domain buyers.
