sales Sedo sales report of the week, topped by Elek.com

[Acroplex]

Sedo has released its latest weekly report of domain sales, topped by Elek.com that was sold for $40,000 dollars.

Retail domain pricing is really something. PetFoodie.com sold for $17.5k. InvestingInsights.com sold for 2k. imo it would make much more sense if those amounts switched places. It does make me wonder about the investors I see price everything in their portfolio over 10k.

PetFoodie = actionable brand
InvestingInsights = long-winded financial term

Bottom line: it's a matter of two parties agreeing on a price. Keep also in mind that unless you ASK you don't GET

 

[magnificentdomains]

not to mention a high amount of luck involved. Petfoodie was likely a very unique buyer. You could easily be sitting on that domain for decades before a buyer comes along ready to spend 10k + on that particular name. Without looking at data I would bet you get a few leads / year on the investing domain.

According to archive.org InvestingInsights had a 8k bin on sedo for the past few years, and PetFoodie went to a sedo make offer lander. If I owned PetFoodie I would probably have it at 2k and make offer and when it sold I would never know that the buyer would've paid 17.5k.

I like the strong 4l sales for the semi pronounceables.

I can say the same and would have had petfoodie at 2248. It's always food for thought when I see these kind of sales. Simply from an investment standpoint I think the investinginsights.com buyer could easily get his money back within 12-24 months if his project doesn't work out. I really cant see the petfoodie buyer getting even half of that back in a reasonable time frame.

That's so long......

 

[Revisiting]

I do agree with the reverse valuations. But, once again we thinking like domainers and not the end-users. The investing domain may well have gone to a domainer and the foodie domain to someone who needs a sales-line. Like all of us, I do enjoy analyzing the sales data, But, I think there is only so far you can go.

As we know, You do get the feel for nature of your buyer when your in negotiations. The domainer is always in the 'Take it or leave it' mode 'time is money' etc. The end-user doesn't usually give-up, even if it drags on for months.

 

[Acroplex]

I agree that without knowing your buyer you might be leaving money on the table via a BIN setup.

Indeed, that's always the dilemma. The sales sites would always rather you had fixed prices (saves any hassle at their end) also a quick payday for them. Whereas that 'Make offer' requires confidence in your negotiating techniques. I consider myself a reasonably good negotiator But I set as fixed price to stop myself settling for the Quick-Buck. So priced as what I would be happy to accept in negotiations. And of course I can forget about them.

There's too many domainers out looking for bargain pick-ups these day. Yes, of course there's the minimum offer, But why invite those offers if that's not what you would settle for. I can't say I've ever enjoyed negotiating over a domain. Horses for Courses.

Had a recent buyer who spent two years Whining and moaning before paying 80% of my asking price. Jesus, but the sales sites compel you to respond to every offer under a 'Make offer' tag
