Share your previously sold names that are available for registration.

I manage list of domains that I sold in the past and that were dropped and are available for registration. I re-register some of them but some are still available.

So I thought I would share some of such names, maybe someone would like them, register them and try their luck. Please do the same!

Men dot do $1,500, sold at Sedo. It used to be registered for a few years after the sale. Registration fee is $79 at 101Domain.com.

Thanks Kriss. I saw that you have been sharing some impressive sales for nGTLDs over the past years, and you seem to have also registered some "exotic" ccTLDs (e.g. the sale above). Would you be willing to share your ideas about the current ccTLD/nGTLD market? Are you still investing in the same way as you did many years ago (I remember you were one of the early "nGTLD proponents")?

The ccTLDs that are being repurposed for other use cases (.ai is currently the most prominent one, but there are others), make it for some not even obvious anymore whether a particular extension is a ccTLD or a nGTLD.

I don't follow cctld market closely nowadays. From what I know .in is emerging market (I was deeply involved in it in the past).

I like and always liked "exotic" cctlds, domain hacks etc But so many people these days

Regarding ngtld market, I think it is doing well. Maybe not so many five/six figure sales at the moment, but still well, especially in $xxxx-low $xxxxx range. I see high domainers activity in catching/registering ngltds. Lot of interest in crypto/AI/fintech names. I think domainers activity has been slowed down a bit by Identity Digital (they increased prices on available premium ngtlds multifold).

Our portfolio is much less now than in 2017-2022, but quality is much higher. I now regret I was selling many ngtlds at Namepros for cheap in 2017-2022, wish I keep them for myself. Now it is much more expensive to build good ngtld portfolio due to high competition. It is still possible to find some gems although, so I keep registering them.

Thank you for your response. The carrying costs of nGTLDs remains an issue: not only the fact that many are significantly more expensive than .com (e.g. .Finance and .Capital are $40-$50 USD each), but also the (unexpected) price increases are pretty significant. And as you mentioned Identity Digital has become a domainer themselves making more domains premium and increasing their prices.

That said, it also creates opportunities as some people are dropping good domains because of these high carrying costs.

Thanks for the link.

.in has always been risky business. At the same time, I see more .in sales now, and my friends fellow .in domainers also say .in market is emerging.

I misread the title which happens when you have insomnia and haven't slept for 24 hours. Feel free to delete if you wish. I was not trying to hijack your post.

Great Topic! Last week I tried to find the many Expired domains I had on Godaddy but unfortunately what they told me, which is not not always correct, is you have to go individually to each unidentified Godaddy purchase you ever made which is a royal pain the ass. Godaddy in my opinion could make this information easily available but they won't. Instead the customer has to go by each unidentified purchase one by one to see what it is. Aboutt 20% of the small amount of purchases I sampled were picked up. NoHarris.com. hikingmetaverse.com, TRR1.COM 1-VA.COM Iwere picked up. I held them for 2-3 years There are a lot more. I just didn't write them down last week. Many VR and words .com. I just know that The History of _____com or History of __________ .com were total losers no one picked up. Unlike many members here I am willing to share things and not afraid of them using and having some success if possible on what I tried and gave up on.
