.tv Proof Of Ridiculous Premium Pricing At .tv

[MillersCrossing]

Again and again, this issue arises where some of us use the premiums as some sort of reflection of true value in either the name itself or a very similar name available at non premium pricing.

I just checked and saw that LEARN.TV is available at $25,000 per annum!!!!

Yet EDUCATION. TV was bought (leaving aside the 70% discount upfront and 50% discount renewal fee) at alot less than half that price - even at full whack.....which is a better name??

Now prices have jumped on alot of premiums since it was last available, I know of four so far where the price has gone up 100%, but there is no way that LEARN.TV should be anything more than $4000 - at the very most.......

Buyers beware!!

Are they just aiming to target end users and leaving out the rest? Not much of business plan IMHO.

So far that was always been the plan as far as premium domains go, see previous posts on this topic by EQ.

One has to wonder why .Mobi, whose development of sites has bigger hurdles to overcome, seems to have welcomed domainers with open arms.....

For one, .mobi is not a threat to .com, but .tv is.....think about it.

Sorry Sanch...thought about it - donnt understand what u r trying to say!!

My point was that if development of .mobis was even tougher tha dev of .TV, surely .Mobi would make it a priority to get sites developed, not enccouraging domainers to gobble up as many domain names as they want......result all LLL.Mobis gone

Why do you think development is harder for .mobi?
