Have an offer at Sedo, need advice ...

[John Doe]

I have a bid $100 (domain was listed with this ask price) on Sedo for milliondollarkeyword.eu.com

.net was sold for $300K
.mobi was sold for $85K
.com.cn hyphenated was sold for $3,5K
.at was sold for $1,5K

How you would appraise such name? What would you do?

1) Sell? Because extension combo doesn`t have great value?
2) Counter offer? $xxx? $xxxx?
3) Auction? Could it work out considering timing - Christmas time and New Year?

Domain is listed at my Sedo parking account and was parked there, but just removed 2 weeks ago to test another parking company. Does it mean I must spend min $50 for Sedo fees or can I spend 10% fee if I remove it immediately back to Sedo NS?

It`s my first time to receive offer via Sedo, so any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

It is my nature to counter offer, so I recommend counter at mid $xxx, higher or lower, but the $1500 does seem to cap it. Anyway, I always try to counter, if even for just $100 more (preferably a lot more).

Thank you Marc! Any more suggestions?

I agree. If you're reasonable in your counter-offer (eg. not 10 times more than he offered), he'll probably just counter your counter-offer with an offer higher than his first offer. Not many buyers (or sellers) give you their best price on the first offer -- just don't insult him by asking 10k or anything silly like that for it.

$500 would make a nice counter imho and try to get a sale around $250+.

Thank you Marc! Any more suggestions?

When you say "domain was listed with this ask price" it means that this's the bid you were hoping to get, and you got it!
Anyway, I'd counter-offer with $350.

I would say any offer you get for a EU.com domain is a good offer, considering this is a subdomain. Also, I'm quite confused with your above stats, considering milliondollarkeyword.com is the only one that's registered. Did the owners of the other extention drop the names?

Most likely these domains didn`t drop. NET sale was private, other sales via Sedo, Afternic etc. I suppose names were acquired by domainers at first Anyhow, I made a counter-offer with $500, let`s see. Some .eu.com names were sold at $400-$600, so I guess price level should be basically ok. Thanks to everyone!

I think you did the right thing in this situation. You should walk away with $200+ if they are really serious about the domain. Good Luck!

I would prefer to work this offer through without posting the name, because this thread could be easily found with friendly help of Google

What is sedo minimum fee for .eu.com domains ? $100?

Their estimate indicates £35 - approx $70 (offer made in £). So, considering renewal costs I need to sell for more than $100 to avoid loss.

so let's pray that you get even better offer...
