Post here the domains you regret not getting it when it is available. The reasons why you think you should got it are also appreciated! I think this can shows your domain appraisal criterion!

At first, the following is mine that i think i should register it when it is available.

51000.com Very easy to remember five number dot com domain
GaoDu.com Very good chinese domain, means hight
NameSources.com Although a little long, but a good name for domainning
eBuy1.com eBuy is a good keyword

Any inputs welcomed! :wave:

mine was theowalcott.com

For those of you who dont know who he is - he recently became the youngest english player ever to play in the national squad and is in the world cup squad at 17. he is probably going to become as big as david beckham marketing wise.

It was in my cart at moniker and i thought about it, then decided against it :td:

IofficeLive.com
Someone in india reg'd it a couple days after I found it availible.
Auction.tv was another one years ago.

 

[vichousefc]

mine was

fashion.org - i know it isnt the greatest ext. but I thought it was a great keyword

 

[OHMY!]

Mine was Business.am. Although it was something like $100/yr for registration I still think it would of been a good investment. Oh well!

Jpot.com was offered to me for some redic price 4 or 5 yrs ago (Maybe $75.00??).. I think the current owner wants $8500

I could have registered a ton of 3 letter .nets when I first started in this game and could have probably paid off my college loans with the profit..

With names as cheap as they are I CANNOT stress enough how important it is to register ANYTHING you consider to be decent.. If you end up dropping it in a yrs time it's just a 7-9 dollar loss... Don't let gems slip away

Mine was g00gl3.com

Makes me even more annoyed when the person only gave it an image

 

[HuskyDomains]

mine was

fashion.org - i know it isnt the greatest ext. but I thought it was a great keyword

This one is like a shot to the heart.. I'd of loved to pick it up

 

[IconPacks]

PSP2.net I could have had... it would have been my first .net though and I've always been wary of straying from .com's

Still... damn, I should have regg'ed it :P

Those were regged 1 day after i checked them:

DubaiAgencies.com
DubaiFlorists.com

bots are efficient, always reg good names when they are available, sometimes its only a matter of hours before they are regged after your check

Where did you do your domain checks? I wouldn't check from there again!

 

[diddie]

i think it doesnt matter where you check, because some can read the checks at icann; but definitely i would avoid godaddy, domaintools and network solutions

FYI i checked at domainsite, those domains were regged by some dubai officials:

Registrant:
Siraj Patel
burdubai
Dubai, Armed Forces Other Areas 118326
United Arab Emirates

 

[CFH DJB]

NoteLabs.com
FreewayInternet.com

I thought both were cool, and tried to register them both just days after they were originally purchased!

 

[GreenGambler]

I don't know if it was good or not but I had my eye on MrWii.com for a while then it got snatched up... did I lose out?

 

[IconPacks]

Nahh... I don't think MrWii.com is worth a whole bunch... nothing to get too worked up about, in my opinion.

Now if you had passed on WiiGames.com, Wiivolution.com or WiiWorld.com those would have been head banging moments

 

[deet]

man, for me it was a bunch of LLL domains
could have got alot of them back in the day

 

[DJ-Sound]

hmm, I don't regret not registering very often as I usually register any name I like, but zhumor.com I should have gotten, instead 2 days later it was taken.

 

[lpxxfaintxx]

Mine was GeekForums.net.... I waited 5 minutes, and when I came back, it was taken.

 

[deleted984054565403]

Industryshare.com
Industrystreet.com

I had a few others on my list that had potential value that were gone when I came back to register them in a couple weeks.

 

[mgt]

What?

So how does someone steal your domain checks, I thought maybe that was going on because I've done that frequently, I go back the next day and they are gone!
