This is what triggered my gut feelings.

Yo,

I got an offer for virtualglasses//net for $15k , is it worth more?

How did you get an offer if the domain is set at WHOIS privacy and no sales form on the site?

Sell this quick, its not often you will get a x,xxx offer on a .net domains

You can still get Sedo, Afternic, Godaddy offers etc

Sell and run imo

I checked and it was not listed on any of them, the name is parked with no contact info or sales banner, is it then still possible to get offers with a private WHOIS? Edit: maybe and outbound.

I have previously received offers via email through private whois, so it's definitely possible. But I don't think the average end user buyer would know how.

The account of "TheResurrection" has just been closed. Have asked management (after following my gut feeling) to check if it is a duplicate account of "maybe" someone who owns the .com version here on NP.
And yes, just got a message back from management stating that indeed it was a duplicate account which has now been closed and that the original account of user "mrcurly" just got a warning, believe it or not, the OP of this whole virtual reality thread! It is now 100% confirmed that the accounts of "mrcurly" and "TheResurrection" belong to the same person, and it seems "mrcurly" owns the .com as seen on his website, go to virtualglasses.com redirects to highfivestudio.com "A MrCurly Venture"

So this is what triggered my gut feelings, just before "TheResurrection" posted about the offer he "supposedly" got of the .net yesterday, I was trying to buy the .com 4 days ago and trying to come up with a deal even today. That is why I was questioning how "TheResurrection" got the offer of $15k for the .net if his WHOIS is private, no sales banner, no contact info, no listings on the big reseller sites like GD Sedo Afternic etc. I asked as seen above in the QUOTES because I was not sure at all but had a strange feeling and still hope I am wrong. But now after confirming the link of duplicate accounts, I guess he was trying to trick me and others into offering higher for his .com version by increasing the perception of the $15k offer for the .net.

This is the only thing I will say, everybody please be very careful what you read guys, do not just believe everything by anyone blindly, because they say it is so and so (do not even believe me blindly, nobody, not even the best of the best of all domainers or anyone else), follow your gut feelings, seek facts and proof, find out for yourselves what is true and what is not, be open minded, but cautious.

So if you respond like that they close your account?

No. If you create a support ticket and ask us to close your account, we will close your account.

Poof...Integrity, Gone with the Wind. Thanks, he's getting off easy...imo.

Now he is trying to sell the .COM for $6k to me which is valid for only 1 hour (he is pressuring, because he knows he has been caught), after his duplicate account got closed. I am willing to risk my whole reputation to show you guys the truth, to protect others from these kind of acts, as I was hesitating to say it in the open, but I have to do what is right even if I am wrong, but it seems pretty clear to me.

 

[Digital Nomad]

Obviously he's been here a long time, but I don't know him, as I just pass through every few months. If you reach a deal after all of this...be sure to use escrow. P.S I love the name, but believe I have better VR names for the money.

I will never go for a deal after all of this, it is very disrespectful and sneaky.

@mrcurly tried to scam me a few months ago. Check his negative rating I left him. He also received a bad business infraction from management.

Be very careful who you deal with on here.

Damn! Seriously that is all kind of f+$&%d up stuff.
Can only imagine how many times he must have leveraged this thread to pump up his VR sales.
Guy is smart. But guess he took this song a lil too seriously.

Thanks for the info. I think we all knew that supposed 15K offer looked WAY too high for that .net domain. It all makes sense now.

[Elad n]

don't mind buying good domains for cheap.
Thats the seller problem if he undervalues his names.

 

[DNWon]

You have been trying to scam the domain from me for the last 2 days

@mrcurly Please explain to all of us NP members in detail how @URLU supposedly scammed you? Because from all the facts we see here, you used a form of pump and dump, to try and get more money for virtual/glasses/com by claiming virtual/glasses/net received a $15,000 offer. If this is true, please post a screenshot of the email offer for 15k from a few days ago, and try to regain some of your lost integrity.

It also doesn't help that a few other members have come here and said they have had bad dealings with you, so please clear this up! Thanks!

You should probably change your avatar too? or at least refresh yourself with the ten commandments! Oh, the irony of that avatar!

@Grilled just burned mrcurly (got it? lol)

That's the whole point of domain investing, buy for cheap, sell for profit.

 

[Keith]

You make numerous attempts to get my domain cheap and didn't succeed! Don't be bitter!

Buying good domains cheap is the name of the game and making low offers just makes sense. But what makes no sense is creating multiple accounts and posting fake offers. Can you explain that? The majority of members here wouldn't even think of doing something like that.

 

[-EM-]

This is getting very funny. Oh boy domaining is going so obscure....

#EveryoneHatesLowballOffers

 

[IRON-MAN]

I am very disappointed about the way @mrcurly treated me. I thought he was a good friend and one day he changed and let me down BIG TIME! it's not very nice using people. I don't trust domainers anymore because of this experience.

@mrcurly does have something special spotting great domains.

@mrcurly = tart without a

 

[Keith]

5 figues, lol......sure you did #fakenews

Of course it was and the buyer is here at NP. GoDaddy actually owns the singular and has it listed at $35k. You might want to warn them of the TM...

Please refrain from personal attacks and name calling. This thread was created to discuss a situation that took place, but it may not be used to bash and nitpick each other on unrelated matters.

Thanks for understanding,

There's so much BS in the domain industry, it's almost unbelievable. (Not that there isn't BS everywhere where money is involved.) Tells something about the difficulty of making money in this industry. Newbies might wanna take note.

Well all I know is, he posted to all here on the board his fake .net offer, with his other ID. Thanks for more info on the poster.

 

[DnEbook]

Wow I thought anyone with a duplicate account got banned?

 

[Keith]

Your the biggest scammer of the lot keith!

Really? You're the only one that's ever said that. In what way and who have I scammed?

I've been a member here for over a decade. Never had another account, never had a negative trade review, never created a thread that contained false info...

You're digging a deep hole. The mods should really ban your "real" account, assuming you don't operate under others as well. @Eric Lyon
