4) MR
5) Attorneys

Highest price paid...
$30-$50k for Lawyers and Streaming

Highest priced LL.TV will be MR.

How many LL.TV's will be over $xx,xxx?
I'll say 13...
MR, HI, XL, IQ, JR, HO, PO, MO, KY, IL, WV, KO, VA

No LL.TV's will sell for under $1k

Go ahead give your predictions if you dare.

 

[blackjack21]

I'm not very good at predictions at the moment dotstop.

I just hope they all sell and do not let the tv extension down. :ghost:

I must admit I think you are right about lawyers being a good name.:gn:

I do not know much about snapnames and certainly hope they contact possibly clients for their auction names.

If not, then it might prove to be a dis-appointment.

Here's hoping.

I think your predictions are good though.

Keep up the good work.

500K is a lot of money and I don't think there is that much money in .tv domaining.
Current bids total: 65,916

But I have to say many names have a low reserve.

 

[DU]

I put my guesses at another forum - in case anyone wants to see. I won't link here but I'm not duplicate posting

Just sayin'.

I'm not as bullish as The Dot Stop and I doubt as bearish as SDSINC.

Well, If you think about it.
The Sedo auction last year was I believe over $750k total and there were only 115, well actually 111 names.

take out last years top 5 names (Business, Christmas, Learn) Lets say that is taking out $200-$250k which brings last years total sales down to about $500-ish.

Now fast forward to this year...TV has picked up some traction. Also this auction has 169 (I believe thats what I counted) so that is an extra 60 names. Lets say there is close to 100 LL.tv's also whereas last years Verisign/Sedo auction I dont remember any LL.tv's

I clearly think my $500k Total sales is VERY low given my safe and overly cautious example from last years big auction...

We shall see

 

[DU]

Lets say there is close to 100 LL.tv's also whereas last years Verisign/Sedo auction I dont remember any LL.tv's

There were a number of LL.TV RE/DR/ID.
There were a number of N.TV also.

 

[Vito]

haha,

My memory is GREAT...but it's also short!

:lol:

How many LL's and N's were in last years, anyone remember?

 

[DU]

Hate to link to them but theDomains has the list:

http://www.thedomains.com/2010/04/08/sedo-tv-auction-ends-with-800k-in-sales-our-winners-losers/

Surprised when I looked. Few names seem high still but in the face of recent sales... so many seem so low now...


0.tv $3,100

Wow.

This auction is necessary in creating a nice healthy aftermarket and bringing much more exposure to our investments so however it ends up, It will be a very good thing for the tv extension.

One things for sure, I'm sure it will do better than that silly dot co auction.

and thx for the compliment Kim.

Wow.

Thank You for the link.

I am glad you got this info from there...
Berkens is the man.

Looking at these LL.tv sales from last year...
I sure as heck hope the Market is better now.

I cant believe it, only 2 LL's got into the $xx,xxx range last year!

in.tv $16,550

re.tv $10,100

ca.tv $9,500

au.tv $8,100

dr.tv $5,800

jp.tv $5,200

id.tv $5,000

to.tv $2,550

xo.tv $2,550

bf.tv $2,200

is.tv $2,150

vs.tv $2,150

bs.tv $2,050

of.tv $1,650

At least none of the LL's sold for under $1650 last year.

If we look at the overall average LL from last year being...about $4 - $5k each
and there are about 100 LL.TV's in there this week,
well thats $400-$500k right there in LL's alone!


How about these 2 sales last year...

japan.tv $10,099
germany.tv $10,099

WOW!

I just counted all the LL's in this auction.
I came up with 99 LL.TV's

I really need to get my dot tv blog started.
Does anyone know how to install a WP template on my Analyze.tv domain for me?
I had a friend who was gonna do it this week and never got around to it.

How cool would it be to own and develop MR.TV?
I love my Analyze but being "MR DOT TV" would just blow anything else away.
There are only about 5 people who I know would want this for that reason only...
Damn, How I wish I could compete w/you Big Dogs!!!

If anyone wants to borrow me about $20K I promise I will develop it ASAP.

Yeah, but as we close in, the prices are rising...i believe there is gonna be a LOT of action here.

A Lot of the Big Boys are being VERY VERY quiet this week.

-------------------------------------------

Whats up w/GG.TV taking the lead right now, a WHOLE entire $1000 ahead of the BEST LL.TV in there...MR.TV???

Hey, As I just picked my picks against ErdInc, I saw Rant.tv and thought about that one...

Wouldn't that be a Killler name to have as a video site...ranting about any subject at all???

That could be a sleeper here.

I just also noticed a nother brilliant LL.TV
ER.TV = Emergency Room.tv!Doctors, Operating, First aid, Health, et...
I am liking this one more and more. This may be worth placing a bid on...

ONLY 5 more hours left!!! ​

.

 

[Erdy]

the dot stop,

I picked them from domains that have bids and reasonable reserves and are likely to sell. After auction finishes we can check who has more guesses closer to sale price.

Example: air.tv sells for $9,000. You are 4k off. I'm 5,5K off. You win. Of course we will exclude domains that don't sell.

gotcha.

I've went back n forth a few times on my final prices and want to keep changing my mind...Of course I wont now that its locked in.

This is tough.

I hope Im way off and everything sells for very high today but there are just so many LL.TV's here that I think it could hurt the outcome a little bit.

We'll see shortly.

So, I'm wonedering wtf is the big deal w/this GG.TV being already at $4600 with 4 hours left. I search for 10 seconds to find some potential end users and this is what I find...

http://www.gardenerguy.com/GGTV.html
http://ggtv.blip.tv/
http://www.guamgaming.com/ggtv_stream.php

This really is an incredible opportunity to grab one of 99 insanely short and brandable LL's today.

Will there be any LL's that will sell for under $1k???

Good Luck to everyone.

---------- Post added at 08:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 AM ----------

GG is at $4800 now!

 

[blackjack21]

gg.tv

I think you will find gg.com is the reason for gg.tv leading the board.

You cannot beat gambling for high price domains.

Good luck, everyone

You may be right.
But you still need a 2nd bidder, just as interested...
and so far there are 8 bidders on GG.

---------- Post added at 10:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 AM ----------

Less than an hour left now.

Does anyone know how many minutes before auction close you can bid and NOT re-start the clock???

 

[blackjack21]

It says on their web site final minutes will restart the auction for another 5.

Depends on their thoughts on "Final minutes"

I would guess 2 minutes to closing will restart it ???

Hmmm, I don't like that wording.
Not specific enough.

 

[silentg]

Automatically extends the auction if you make a bid when there's less than 5 minutes left. That's why some of the .tv auctions are still live.
