[Amzymayor]

Sold Edprogram.com for $80.

Here is the story. I reg this domain name when I started domaining June last year. It costed me $9 to reg (namesilo). I also renewed it early this year.

The reason I didn't drop this name is because of the high Estibot valuation ($2,700).

So I decided to test water with Flippa auction. I paid $59 (home page and listing fee) 4 months ago. I listed for 10 days or so (can't remember).

Before the listing period got to the middle, a man contacted me. He offered $300. I countered with $499. I was firm with that asking price. Then he started telling me of the spam score and bla bla bla. I just ignored and focused on receiving other resonable offers.

Then the time lapse. No other offer. Not even "hello."

And before that time I thought I could relist my domain just like the $9. But to my greatest surprise, I wasn't allowed to do that.

Then the first bidder came again with $100. I ignored him.

4 months later, I decided to mail him because I needed money. I wrote,

"Hi XXXX. I've accepted your offer of $100 for this domain. Can we begin the transfer process?"

He replied later with, "Hello. I can only buy that for $80." Guess what? I took it immediately.

Then I transferred the name to him and he paid me after two days. I received $76.5 after commission.

So, in total I spent (59 +18) -------$77
Sold for $76.5
LOSS (-$0.5)

Thanks for reading! Hope to report something resonable soon!

D/e/l/l/a/r/o dotcom

Sale venue: Outbound/Escrow.com
Seller: Me
Asking price: $500
Sale price: $250

Details:
Bad purchase, few .cctld's were developed but when I bought it I didn't realize that they never needed the .com and it would be very hard to sell. Emailed the potential buyers only a week before expiry date, no reply, followed up 2 days before expiry, domain sold on the day it expired. Renewed and pushed to buyer's account.

Offered it for $500 in initial email, after follow up buyer said they could only pay $250 and they don't really need the domain.

Me: "No problemo, I'll take $250"

Thanks.

Thanks!

Mostly I don't give a price in my initial email, I ask the buyer to make an offer. But when I have to sell quickly I give a price. This domain was about to expire and I didn't want to get into negotiations.

Hey NP,

I have a couple small sales to report. The first was through Sedo, details below...

Domain: L/o/n/d/o/n/A/r/c/h/e/s
Extension: .com
Marketplace: Sedo
Sale Date: November 22, 2017
BIN: $95
Expired/dropped reg: $13
Net: $22 ($60 Sedo comission)

The second sale was through Afternic. At first I received an email that someone had initiated a PayPal transaction through my Efty lander for this domain. I eagerly waited for confirmation that the transaction had completed. After thirty minutes or so I started to assume the buyer backed when suddenly I received an email from Afternic that the domain had sold via their fast transfer for $50. Not too sure why the buyer chose to purchase through Afternic (especially when the domin was listed at half the price on Efty lander), but I guess they were just more comfortable with a reputable marketplace. Details below...

Domain: F/r/e/e/S/t/u/d/y/C/o/u/r/s/e
Extension: .com
Marketplace: Afternic
Sale Date: December 12, 2017
BIN: $50
Expired/dropped reg: $13
Net: $22 ($15 Afternic comission)

It's funny how both sales netted the same amount from different matketplaces.

Thanks,

@rothex
Londonarches.com .. have more confidence in your names. Don't know what it refers to exactly, but that's the type of name that when someone shows interest, it's min a 4 figure name.

@Ali Azam
MineForCoins.com was a $2500- 4500 name. Coin names are flying and one that was spot on like mineforcoins.com was sold far too cheaply.

If you're starting out in the industry and want to have some sales under your belt, sure. If that's not the goal, then you guys need to revalue your domains.

One $2000-3000 sale is like having 80-100 of those small sales.


Also by selling too cheaply, if there's alot of these sales, it somewhat lowers the benchmark of these types of names.

- continue to buy these types of names
- BE PATIENT for right the buyer
- Be confident

I say this with love

 

[Rothex]

@platey Appreciate the input, that's definitely part of what drew me towards the name to begin with.

@pokainc Thanks for the constructive feedback. This was one of my first purchases and with those came a few that were unmistakably poor decisions so much of that dissatisfaction likely poured over into my approach on this name. These types of sales though definitely continue to boost my confidence on future purchases and give me enough foresight to have patience when selling. Thanks again!

I know.
Bitcoin/Zebra was a full-fledged site, but now it's just parked somewhere.
I tried contacting the guys but that didn't work out.
At the end of the day, it's just another brandable that had to go for some quick bucks.
