Drop reg, hold time 5 weeks, sold for $4199 gross, net $2941. no further details.

 

[accuname]

Sold: Afternic, negotiated
Hold time: 13 Months
Lander: offer DAN
Cost: Dropcatch $471+ renewal
Details: When I acquired the name I initially listed it for 7.5k BIN at Dan before changing to offer. I set a minimum at afternic of 2k and a 3k offer came in. I never had any intention of selling it that low but I lowered my expectation a bit and responded 6.5k BIN. Buyer came up to 5k, which was my floor price and I told agent to close the deal.

My portfolio size is about 250 atm. I've gone over 300 domains only once.

No further info.

Sold @ Afternic (BIN)
Purchased for $165 at Dynadot expired auction
Hold time 10 months

Sold @ Afternic (BIN)
Purchased for $1 at NameCheap (hand reg)
Hold time 10 months

 

[accuname]

Sold: Afternic, negotiated
Hold time: 14 Months
Lander: offer DAN
Cost: $14 + 2 renewals, Namesilo expired auction (namesilo adds a renewal to every winning auction).

Details: When I acquired the name I had a value of 3.5k in mind and stuck to it. A month ago had an offer of 500 come in through afternic. That didn't go anywhere so I upped the min to 1k. Same buyer came back with 1k min offer. I responded with the same bin (through email to agent) as before and this time it sold.

Very lucky with these back to back sales, especially with the economic conditions. Dry spell incoming now... lol

No further info.

Sedo BIN, hold time 1.5 years. Drop reg. Sold via the Sedo network, 20% commision applies.

Note: Last month my Sedo sales have went better than Afternic. Although all my landers are also pointing at Afternic.

In the past I was getting close to no sales at Sedo. Now I'm getting constant 4-fig sales at Sedo.

What's going on.

If you check which partner, you'll most likely see NameCheap for 80%+ of those. Before NC and GD debacle, Namecheap sales would go to Afternic. Now, Namecheap checks for Sedo feed first and will go to Afternic feed only Sedo doesn't have the same sale. So for sellers there is no incremental change.

2021 Sale
Sold: Squadhelp, outright purchase
Hold time: 23 Months
Cost: $50 + 2 renewals. Dynadot expired auction. I was the only bidder - I guess dynadot algo also saw some value in it and priced it like that.

Details: I knew the prefix "only" was an ok word for sales along with it being similar to the site that really popularized "only" so I took a chance. My initial thoughts weren't an adult theme for it though but gaming, sci-fi, ect.

I submitted to SH initially but it was rejected. My valuation wasn't all that high after that and I prob was starving for a sale too so I listed it for $500 on my ebay store. Not sure how long I had it up but it was prob 3-6 months. Had some watchers but glad no one bought it. I had it on DAN lander for a while too. At some point I reevaluated it and submitted to SH again and on second try they accepted.

Sold pretty quickly after being accepted - like a month or two. Nameservers still point to SH.

No further info.
