showcase First big sale ___ damnf*ckinghot.com

[Ariff BD]

Hi guys,

I got my first big sale. The domain is damnfuckinghot com



It was taken for 9800 usd from namecheap directly.

Though i asked him for 15000 & thought i would settle for 12k.But rediculously i forgot to change the price in Namecheap marketplace where i registered it & left it from the bigining.

So the buyer must have found it & taken it without telling me so i dont close the Namecheap sale & ask higher price.LOLS

Also i tried to sell it in Nampross sometimes in a way cheaper rate when i needed some cash,I was mad for getting a sale.




But I never expected such a big one in first year of domaining.

I handregistered it this year 2019.

A friend of mine once visited Thailand & explained the girls as damn fucking hot.I knew the term was cathcy so i registered it.

I started listing it in Godaddy,sedo & some other platform. But the best thing i did,i forwarded it to my facebook id. So somehow someone who put it in the browser,directly found me & contacted my fb inbox.

I did not notice the massage untill the 9th day,than while checking old massages in FB inbox, i found a blank profile asking me about the domain damnfuckinghot com. I was not as excited becasue i got offers from 100 to 600 usd previously.

But I replied him with my email id. I couldn't negotiate that much because only after two back to back mail, I found my domain was gone.

I asked him about NDA, so he was not interested to disclose his identity or contact.But said will have no problem if I share the story of my domain sold.

Here is the email i got from namecheap in my gmail

& this is my namecheap balance page after sale...



I did a lot of outbound with my mena & insurance domain but never forwarded them to my facebook. So now i am going to do that with all my domains.

Previously i sold customizedsmartphone com in 180 usd & cbdyahoo com in 125usd.

cbdyahoo com is developed & being used in ny based it company.You can check. This is my email of sale of cbdyahoo com that was not forwarded to facebook but outbound a lot to cannabis company.





wish you good luck for your domain sale. Wish me luck.

He didn't. He told me in DM, DamnF.. was sold for 40 USD on Namecheap. Though I didn't believe even this one too. But had to say "congrats".

Sorry Ariff, this is bad.

Shameful that he felt the need to manufacture this story.

Potential gain: strangers on the internet give you props.

Potential loss: your entire reputation.

The risk/reward doesn't pan out, boys and girls. Don't lie about sales.

Well for anyone reading this, it may be that this sale was a fake but let me say that I have had multiple sales of hand registered domains within 90 days of registration sell for $X,XXX. I haven't had one that quick for $XX,XXX yet though.

Though i asked him for 15000 & thought i would settle for 12k.But rediculously i forgot to change the price in Namecheap marketplace where i registered it & left it from the bigining.

The moment I read this, I knew straightaway this is a FAKE SALE report badly but together. You asked him for 15K but he discovered it from where you listed it for 9.8k and just paid without further contacting you?

If this name sale for 9.8k. I'll organize every domainer to go to the streets and protest the injustice.

Reading the original post I thought it was a high price for a name that would have limited application. In a lot of cases the domain would be filtered by peoples router settings or parental controls. Notice even namepros filters it, so immediately your market application is cut in half.

I am always rooting for members to have a big sale and was looking forward to it being legitimate. I am the very first person to be happy when a new member strikes gold.

Seeing his account closed pretty well confirms what everyone is thinking and therefore we can probably chalk this one up to someone being overzealous to post a sale.

 

[transistif]

thats sin!

 

[hawkeye]

The sad part of this is all the gullible ‘domainers’ praising and congratulating on this obvious ‘as-if’ sale. good grief.

NP has changed its so negative now.
now pros knocking others for their congrats
Sure I gave a congrats, but do I believe the sale? I only believe in my sales tbh.
The sad part to me was the exchange of so many likes to those calling this fake.
(even if those were my thoughts)
and yet..
I tried to share some positive knowledge and focus on something we know to be real from this thread but not a single like.
Even (some) pros sometimes forget a BIN somewhere from time to time.

It's not a case of 'pros' knocking others for congrats, it's more the case of so many 'newbies' wanting to believe all/any reported sales as 'true', and not knowing or seeing the obviousness of truth stretching on a wtf reported sale.

The sad part to me was the exchange of so many likes to those calling this fake.

Some can see/tell the difference of what would/does sell. Others want to believe everything that looks/sounds great, to justify their 'it-could-happen-to-me-too' dreams.

I tried to share some positive knowledge and focus on something we know to be real

...and this was...what??

 

[hawkeye]

Sure I gave a congrats, but do I believe the sale? I only believe in my sales tbh.

But yet you gave a 'like' to a sale that by your own admission, you don't really believe. ....ok.

 

[NamesCost]

yet you gave a 'like' to a sale that by your own admission, you don't really believe. ....ok.

I did not click like no
(unless by mistake)

 

[NamesCost]

...and this was...what??

It was in all my posts in this thread until responding to you. Just read.

 

[NamesCost]

Call it what you "like"


I call this

But yet you gave a 'like' to a sale that by your own admission, you don't really believe. ....ok.

a LIE.

 

[hawkeye]

I did not click like no
(unless by mistake)

You gave a 'Congrats', same as a 'like'.

It was in all my posts in this thread until responding to you. Just read.

I did read, you said this - I tried to share some positive knowledge and focus on something we know to be real
What was the positive knowledge?

I call this
But yet you gave a 'like' to a sale that by your own admission, you don't really believe.
a LIE.

You wrote - Sure I gave a congrats, but do I believe the sale? I only believe in my sales tbh.
So if you only 'believe in your sales', why would you 'congrat' someone's sale you 'don't believe'??

 

[NamesCost]

I really "like" the way I am quoted here then ask a question that is answered by very next line that was omitted.
Can't bother to read the other posts or even the next line.

 

[hawkeye]

What kind of could bother to read the other posts or even the next line.

Calm down, you're getting too excited trying to explain yourself.

 

[NamesCost]

Calm down, you're getting too excited trying to explain yourself.

Not explaining myself there. Just explaining the trick.

Thanks for the well wishes, may you find calm as well.

Hot tips:
Try reading the entire post (or thread even)
Don't just respond with misleading quotes.
Calm down and slow down.

 

[HSNZ]

Well done brother ive always enjoyed our chats they be no more now...

 

[hawkeye]

Not explaining myself there. Just explaining the trick.

Oh, so there are 'tricks' to justifying your congrats on an obvious non-sale. I guess we all can and should learn from an experienced expert like yourself. I'll pass myself.

 

[NamesCost]

I guess I will be forced to explain.

Let's start with the "trick"

The trick I was referring to was your trick where you quote me, then ask a question that is answered by the following line which you omit. The same line that might be better understood with the context provided by reading previous posts.

What is the level of vetting we are expected to do before clicking a like button or before saying congrats? Asking for a friend...

 

[Bob Hawkes]

So I see the account is auto closed, I guess related to this all.

@Joe Nichols said something very well I just wanted to underscore:

Shameful that he felt the need to manufacture this story.

Potential gain: strangers on the internet give you props.

Potential loss: your entire reputation.

The risk/reward doesn't pan out, boys and girls. Don't lie about sales.

There are good reasons to not disclose sales, and I respect those who choose not to.
I am appreciative that so many do disclose sales data which provides data to analyze what is happening. But it never is right to post fake sales data. As Joe says, a tiny questionable upside and a huge long-term downside.

Anyway, I hated the domain name and would have been upset with a name of that 'quality' had commanded those dollars, even though I do realize it only takes one eager buyer who likes a name.

Maybe you can relay to your friend that for me at least when I am in the Report Completed Sales thread I am pretty free and easy with the Like or Thank button, and as long as some minimum content is posted I just press the Like/Thank. And in the vast majority of cases, I do believe the sales there are genuine. Of course I am a trusting person....

I think as in Twitter people say a Retweet or Like does not mean endorsement, we should operate that way on NamePros too.

Agreed. It's a rare case that I question sales I see posted in the official reporting thread.

As reasonably intelligent people, I think we all have at least a moderate degree of instinct that can help us to notice red flags when sales like this one are posted:

• Relatively new member.
• No established trust or track record on NP or in domain industry.
• Reporting a near five figure sale as basically his first sale.
• Domain name has no sensible reason to command such an amount.

It's not to say that head-scratching names don't sell regularly for good sums of money (just ask Mike Mann), but... when a few of the above factors present themselves all at once, the responsible thing to do is to take a step back and ask a few questions before clicking that Like button.

 

[MapleDots]

NP has changed its so negative now.

Not all negative

I am always rooting for members to have a big sale and was looking forward to it being legitimate. I am the very first person to be happy when a new member strikes gold.
