Entire Portfolio of 123 Domain Names
Brandable, Unique and Valuable with a few hidden Gems!

believe me i saw much weird things than that. and this one is not selling to resellers it's aim is to end users or newbies.

 

[Miyavi]

I made the initial $1.00 bid on them and then stopped. :hehe:

But yeah, way too mean -ie and -y suffixes for my liking.

 

[Ronald Regging]

Simple. I'd pay $3,300 for boootie.com alone!

If you click on the list of bidders, it's actually quite obvious that theres some major shill bidding going on.

 

[notlikeyou]

What a bunch of nOObs you all are obviously you all don't recognize the true hidden gem in the list

beerie

now that's a million dollar name, it would only be better if you had a muggie, to pour your beerie into before you drinkie it. What's wrong with you all?

What a loser!!

believe me i saw much weird things than that. and this one is not selling to resellers it's aim is to end users or newbies.

No end user with any brains would buy any names from this list. This seller is a domainer looking for fools! To register this crap, the guy has to know about domains. I mean, I would have to work at it, to come with sh*t like this.
I agree he is after newbies, but it's more like "preying on the gullible".
This domainer also has to be well "kinda dumb" to register all these crappy names, and think he might rip someone off later. I hope he gets stuck with every last name, and winds up being the big loser he is!!! Ok, Merry Christmas!

beef and bean shillie, or shilley anyone?


Funny how all the ad-on bonus names had $3500 and $4000 as targets.

And "Buyer" has right to cancel auction at any time? (Freudian slip) So I should bid 20k and then cancel my bid "at any time".

Seller also states this is a multi venue auction ? But he ads due to soo many requests I'm stating wont sell off ebay

Then go to the Q: and A: section for this gem

"Q: Hi got a quick question for you - do you have any more of these in stock? tanks! Dec-18-07

A: NO - i don't have any more of these in stock. They're specific, unique domain names...Not mass-produced items. '


LOL you have to be kidding.

c-a-s-i-n-o.us had to be the hidden gem, as they say, "Casino" dot extention names are always worth money :hehe:

 

[lzy]

$3.5k highest bidder

 

[MyNameIsDomain]

The only domains with little value are

footballstadiums.us
vegas-buffet.com
vegas-gifts.com
witchcreek.com
widgetsplus.com

but not nearly 3500 dollars.

Filling a portfolio like that is no art, and most certainly not business.

thanks for letting us know.

He got a $3,500 bid from a decent ebay user...

maybe a fake sale, the buyer had no high budget domain purchase in history, mostly 5-10$ purchases, and jumped with a 3500 bid to these weird domains, which is weird also

How could it be a fake sale? The buyer had a 74 rating had paid 3600 for them.

 

[ulasbbtr]

if two ones know each other, any fake transaction can be easily occur, noone will know about it. It is also not difficult to maintain a 74 rating with 5-10$ purchases on ebay.

Thats not a fake sale. Its very possible the two people knew one another and the one person continued to bid with no intention to buy simply to raise the price. Notice how the winning bidder was not one of the previous bidders Very simply the person continued to bid to get the price out there and make it a known auction, then stopped and allowed the real buyer to place his bid. Unethical? Yes, Fake Sale? No.

Check out this timeline:

1) 12/17/07 - Auction Begins

2) 12/18/07 - Question "Hi got a quick question for you - do you have any more of these in stock? tanks!"
Answer "NO - i don't have any more of these in stock. They're specific, unique domain names...Not mass-produced items."

3) 12/18/07 (Note the same day as the question above)
"Extra Domains Included:coldsandwich.com, Bikini-Babes.us, Mini-Vans.net"

4) 12/21/07 Bonus names if prices are reached "suzy.ws, roxanne.ws"

5) 12/23/07 Extra Bonus names includes "ficoscore.mobi, apartment.com.mx, vegas-nudes.com, suicidally.com, sexymommas.net


What happenned to "I don't have any more of these in stock...not mass-produced items"? It seems he does have more in stock and he is adding them. Tanks for nothing.

Anyway, the bidder seems legit. Looking at his previous purchases, this group fits right in. He buys a lot of multiple word, alternate extension tld's, as well as a lot of alternate tld's with hyphens. Maybe he will see this thread about himself eventually, come over to Namepros, and stop wasting his .


Oops. I missed 2 more mass produced names: 12/24/07 Pussie.ws and toosexy.co.uk added
