domainers get seriously abused in fees.
he has a respectable $400 sale amount.... for domain he paid 70$ for..
but suddenly your down to 130$ net profit in the end...
so $200 in misc fees.

domainer abuse/ripoff. this so shouldn't be happening.

All about where you do your business with domaining. Private outbound sales, very minimal fees. If you have to list it to sell it, you're going to pay for it. Those sites need to make money too.

yes of course. that goes without saying that private in/out sales carry little to no fees.
I was referring to using intermediary sites for biz. imo they make more on us than just their fair share of money. that above was a fine example of it.

I don't have exact stats, maybe no one does, but I'd still dare claim that most domainer sales are not private inbound/outbound sales, and therefore do carry a fee... 20% to godaddy or other auction sites... now it's a pretty nice chunk of your sale any way you look at it.

oh well.. such is the domainer life. good day.

Thanks for the feedback. I typically do a combination of outbound/inbound. I have only sold a couple names via newsletter/brokerage. I knew the fees ahead of time in this case. I still doubled my money here and got rid of a name I was having a hard time moving....

Oftentimes around here we're told that if it's available to register, there's hardly any chance of it being worth MORE than reg fee. Well, I'm a firm believer in the power of hand regs, and I thought maybe this post would encourage some low rollers like myself.

I love .com, but I also love the new opportunities (and massive ROI potential) brought to the table with some of the newer extensions. My ngTLD of choice is .online, so let's use a few of those as examples of how to turn a little into a lot. Of course, I'm in it for the long haul with my ngTLD's, but it's nice to make some sales occasionally as well to help fund the addiction!

Did buy it for $550 from a forum last year.

I think sold too low again. But it may have someTM problems.
I am not 100% happy with this sale.

I think CBD.com sold for $65,000. A steal imo.

I sold CBDO.com for $4000 to Media Options last year. Paid reg fee for it.

Paying reg-fee for it doesn't necessarily mean it was a hand-reg? Nice sale by the way.

 

[MR PACKER]

About 2005

It does if I was the one who regged it in 2005.

 

[alcy]
