discuss Funny replies by possible end-users

[kite26]

As we know, many domainers send emails to promote their names to the buyers. Do you have any funny replies by them? Don't post names or addresses, only the messages!

Before 11 days i had this conversation:
Me: Hello sir do you want ''this'' domain name?
He: (in french) No, this is my name!My name is my!

Hahaha, he went crazy when he met the perfect ngtld for his .com!But he recognized me as thief!

Got these two replies when doing outbound for two domains:
"f...off"
"I will give you $50"

 

[usernamex]

This was not an outbound reply, this was incoming from my "Request Info" form on my hack domain pea/rs (.RS is Serbia)

I like pears but I don't need a domain. Maybe next time!

 

[Houssaine]

Here's another one I got yesterday after doing some outbound marketing on one of my names:

"Hello

Please be serious and study a little before buying domains in the hope to sell it with a larger price.
I'm not a company, I'm offering a free product ... yes free still exists!

Good luck and please don't contact me again to sell things

Greeetings"

I got one a few days ago asking if I would just transfer the domain to them.

Inbound inquiry..

 

[kite26]

-(I) Do you want this name?
-(He) No, but i hope to get $1.000.000 for it!

Outbound on a VR domain, they own the reverse reg which is undeveloped, I assume they have plans for it.

Me: Are you interested in this domain?

CEO: How Much?

Me: Low $xxxx

CEO: Don't you think that's a bit much for something that cost a few dollars?

Me: My cost is irrelevant, if you bought an ounce of gold for 5% of market value, would you sell it for the same price because that's how much you paid? Please note that all alternative keyword combinations are in use or locked down, there is no further .com digital real estate left pertaining to this keyword.

Him: You'll have to find another client, I mean victim, hah.

Me: As a CEO of a company based in two continents, you'd be wise to keep an open mind and do some research on the value of domains, and how they can improve your online presence. One last question, is your brand and company image only worth $10? Is this the value you put on protecting it? Have a nice day.

I was courteous but I had to get a dig in.

Maybe he goes off and does some research but I doubt it. Afterall, domains are only worth $10.

I recently received a reply from an outbound email where the reply was that I should just give them the domain for free because they were young, struggling entrepreneurs.

After I gave them a price they countered with a low offer bordering on reg fee.

We went back and forth for weeks until we decided on a price.

They told me to send them an invoice and I haven't heard back from them in weeks.

Reply from an End user:

I registered the Facebook name XXXXXX for a music event. Within days it seemed your client had registered the .com after seeing the new name! This was sneaky and underhand. We do not use this name currently so any offer for it would be minimal.....i also feel like my name has been stolen by your client. I offer you £25 for it as it no longer has any real worth to us.

I dont visit my FB account frequently, How can i know his new FB ID--

I quoted too high for him..got a fast response.

"Oh, that is F-ing hilarious. Thanks for the humor!!! ROFLMAO"

"exact match domains went out of style a few years ago"

lol

Got this last week:

"That kind of sounds like a gay porn site. We'll pass."

 

[usernamex]

"That kind of sounds like a gay porn site. We'll pass."

LOL - You can't possibly post that response and not share the name now : grin : (obfuscate if needed)

 

[Jv1999]

so I actually spent over 2 minutes reading this thread. Nothing's funny at all except for maybe the child trade response.

They all sound like they're flipping you all the bird -- and that's not funny .

I feel fortunate I haven't gotten such responses at all with my outbounds...

If anything this thread made me not want to domain LOL. It is kinda underhanded to see someone make a facebook band thing, and then reg the name and try to sell it to them??

 

[Eckhart]

I burst a bit into laughing when I saw his reply cause I could see his perspective, though it's a drag, he just wanted to say no in a badass way. Ill pm you the name.

Got another one:

"Dude,

People don't buy domain names for big money any more, just doesn't happen."

Fyi, big money was xxx

 

[jamaltq]

My domain was 4L.com quad premium pronounceable.
Got an offer from them for $100.

I sent out some emails today and I just got back the weirdest response.

I emailed a guy in New Zealand about a name, telling him it was available if he wanted to buy it and this was his response ->

"Thanks"

That's it!!

Just "Thanks"

Nothing else.

??

I think he thought I was just some nice person telling him about a name that has come back on the market, and I was just "letting him know about it".

In other parts of the world people's culture's dictates different ways of responding. So that might be their way of politely declining.

I got a simple "thanks" once. It ended successfully and he was from US, so no cultural stuff. I think you have high chances of closing this one.
