As far as I know a 409.mad doesn't exist either

What ever..

U.S., try reading up on Consumer Protection laws. If a registry was to report a sale that didn't happen, which deceives consumers in to buying their product, this is a big no no. And this is why there are no proven cases to date but rather speculation.

Deceptive Advertising
Under both federal and state law, an ad is unlawful if it tends to mislead or deceive, even if it doesn't actually fool anyone. If your ad is deceptive, you'll face legal problems whether you intended to mislead the customer or not. What counts is the overall impression created by the ad -- not the technical truthfulness of the individual parts.

FTC Enforcement of Deceptive Advertising Laws
Over the years, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has taken action against many businesses accused of engaging in false and deceptive advertising. If FTC investigators are convinced that an ad violates the law.

Consumers often have the right to sue advertisers under state consumer protection laws. For example, someone who buys a product relying on a deceptive ad might sue in small claims court for a refund or join others (sometimes tens of thousands of others) to sue for a huge sum in another court.

if there are sales reported by third parties they are not engaging in advertising.

Not all of your so called fake sales come from 3rd parties, you know that. You can surely do better than that, you act like you joined this site yesterday and not 5 years ago.

but I have a question for you: what is your goal here if you don't invest in new gTLDs????
You lose hours and hours in new gTLD discussions... Why???

This is more exciting. There is a fake demand created in the market by the Registries and many registrars making domain investor's believe that the market for new gtlds are high and people will start buying more and the next generation is for new gtld's only. But been 3 years i dont see any mainstream market for new gtld's as of now. If there is some one who can share the list of 100 multi national corporate clients and we can know the scenario of the ngtld's impact on market.

This actually interest me in doing a research. The traffic of the new gtld domain of a corporate company with the .com domain of the same company. This might give us the logic behind this.

Probably in a month I can share more interesting figures. But what ever I am saying is not static. Changes in the mindset of human can happen with any factor. Suddenly someday the people might start buying new gtld's for any factor. but the real truth now is that the buying factor have not been found by anyone yet. No one have a valid reason to buy a new gtld other than that it is launched and it have many fancy names and few of them are very cheaper for registering.

In this answer we have only your point of view about new gTLDs and dot coms...
This is not the answer to the question: why bashers are always here? without forgetting that they are not here for charity...

No one have a valid reason to buy a new gtld other than that it is launched and it have many fancy names and few of them are very cheaper for registering.

For you: No one have valid reason to buy new gTLD......
I understand, for you new gTLDs are stupid and millions of new gTLDs buyers are stupid. I am one of these millions...
And for you the dot com domain is smart and buyers of dot com domains are smart.
This is your point of view. I respect that. I disagree but I respect. No problem.
The only problem is that I personally have in my portfoglio 50% of dot coms and 50 % of new gTLDs, then I do not understand if I'm stupid or smart... Fifty-fifty maybe

This is not discussion about who is smart. You are talking in the point of view as a domain broker. I am talking in a point of view as a normal internet user. I would like to put a simple point infront of everyone. Its simple for anyone to understand. The internet is the only medium of free communication at this point of world. We as in world is facing lot of threats and difficulties. Lets make internet less complicated and make it easy for everyone to understand accessible.

If you really think why the android and iphone apps are more popular than the new gtld's if anyone one can think in this point of view. Earlier people are bad in remembering numbers so the naming system came. The naming system is getting complicated now a days so people are preferring to use apps in their mobile devices. Where you don't need to remember anything and you get access in just a click.

Simplification is something necessary. The ngtld's complicate things. I know about two tld's .property and .properties. If I own a real estate business why will I buy both the tld's and increase my IT investment. What is the difference between both of them other than singular and plural. If my logic is wrong then yes every one is smart other than me in the world.

You can't expect a common end user to be genius and remember or learn the technicalities. The things should be make simple and easy and the experience would be really amazing.

I would always prefer internet as a medium for communication than a place of business and scammers. Lets make internet easy and safe.

I have not said:
For you dot com buyers are smart and I disagree with that.
but I said:
For you new gTLD buyers are stupid and dot com buyers are smart and I disagree with that.
these are two different things... I think you are good for NBC or for CNN...

You have a problem with .proprety and .properties but do you have the same problem with property.com and proterties.com?
we also have .CAR and .CARS.
Maybe for you ELECTRIC.CAR = ELECTRIC.CARS ???
Maybe for you if you buy ELECTRIC.CAR you have to buy ELECTRIC.CARS???
Ok, but what about the dot com?
ELECTRICCAR.COM = ELECTRICCARS.COM ???
if you buy ELECTRICCAR.COM you have to buy ELECTRICCARS.COM ???

Simplification is something necessary. The ngtld's complicate things.

ELECTRIC.CAR is more complicated than ELECTRICCAR.COM ???
360.VIDEO is more complicated Than 360VIDEO.COM ???

I don't understand and I disagree but I respect your point of view.

 

[dordomai]

ELECTRIC.CAR is more complicated than ELECTRICCAR.COM ???
360.VIDEO is more complicated Than 360VIDEO.COM ???

for most internet users this is the case because they are really tech challenged. .com is something that everyone knows and understands. You need to think from the perspective of average joe not average joe domainer.

If you show them ELECTRICCAR.COM they will understand this is a website something you can visit on the internet, a startup or a company.

If you show them ELECTRIC.CAR and ask them what this is they will not know. Maybe some would answer: An electric car?

Also these are poor examples because both happen to be reserved by the registry like most better domains that makes sense. A domainer will not be able to sell these.

360.video is $60k per year and electric.car is not even available.

Why bother investing in a market where most domains that are of better quality can't be traded by domainers?

This is really logic101 that is failing here.

 

[stimpi777]

I guess who ever bought it for $3 million went broke afterwards, the "site" it's just a landing cams page and it's laughably sh*tty

hahaha , I already knew the price of 360.VIDEO and I knew that there will be comments like this...
I personally have many 360. .... domains (Prices: $20 each, only one: $70) and they are good but I'm not here for promotion... And for one of them I received a good offer but not enough for me...

• I bought - News.social via an expired auction.
• I pay for the domain name, it renews.
• The domain goes into my account.
• I was excited since I wanted a News.tld domain for a project for awhile.
• I check previous registrant, it was Name marketing team.
• I'm nice, I email the marketing dept. asking if they want it back, if not I will use the domain.
• 1 week later Scott McBreen, takes the domain out of my account
• I get a paltry account credit
• Scott McBreen believes this is the 1940s, him and Rightside/Name = FBI, and he can take whatever he and his company wants from Japanese-Americans - http://www.densho.org/
  
• He licks his chops since Rightside is secretly using money from premium domain registrations to build new Japanese-American internment camps with gas chambers and ovens. He's leading this effort.
• Jared Ewy calls me and says I can have the name back, if I do marketing video with Name/Rightside about the colossal F$@$-up.
• I try to call Scott McBreen and leave a message, he refuses to call me back.
• I try to call Jared Ewy back many times to try to be reasonable about the situation, he will only leave messages on my phone.
• He admits in one of his messages he doesn't pick-up numbers from my US area code, WTF?
  
• I decide I don't need to be a donkey/horse with a dangling a carrot (News.social) in front of me
• I have nothing against donkeys/horses. At least they are honorable creature unlike the F$@-sH$#ts at Name/Rightside
• I take a positive review of Name down from my website and remove any mention or positive mention. The review still had good SEO rankings.
• I transfer most of my domains out of Name and will NEVER do business with Rightside
• I post here
• I HATE new gTLDs and write to several people explaining the situation who own Rightside extensions. They decide to stick with .COM.
• Will only build on .COM/.ORG and ccTLDs in the future
• Will tell everyone F#%%^ I can what a mistake new gTLDs are, and my story, to anyone that will listen for YEARS
