Selling Newly Registered Domains

[DomainBoogie]

What are the options, besides eBay, for selling or auctioning newly registered (or newly transfered) domains? I see that for some of the auction sites, the domains can't be within 60 days of registration or transfer.

Any recommendations on one over another would be helpful, too.

great question.
even with ebay, how do you deal with such sales - so people don't have to wait 60 days for their name? or are people happy to wait for a good name..?
are there any registrars you know about that offer transfers after only a short month of time? (i rang godaddy and they're still 60 days...)

The larger parking companies like Sedo, Parked, Afternic all have accounts at multiple registrars. Domains can't be transferred to a different registrar, but they can be pushed to an account with the same registrar.

For example I registered a name at GoDaddy in January, parked on Sedo, got an offer in 3 days, and sold it at auction a week later. I push the name to their account, they push the name to the buyer's. This means if the buyer didn't have an account at GoDaddy, they would have to have created one, but it's free right?

P.S. Don't expect to get offers that fast, it's only happened to me once.

nice work! thanks for the info, too.
what about if it's not thru an auction, just privately? any tricks/ good registrars for fast transfers for recent regs?
ps, i'd love to know what sold 3 days after regging!

Most buyers who are domainers will be looking for "pushes," not "transfers." If the buyer does want a transfer in the first XX days, the method that has been mentioned before is for them to create an account at the registrar in question, have the name pushed to that account, and then they can transfer the name to the registrar of their choice when the clock has run.
If you are registering domains at a registrar that most folks do not want to do business with/at, you may find it is in your best interest to move to one that people recognize and are more willing to accept a "push" from.

i sold 2 domains on sedo 2 weeks after regging them, the buyers doesn't like godaddy and dynadot, so sedo is now waiting the 60 days to procede.
