question Wank.net was sold for $405

[YairDD]

The domain Wank.net was sold for $405 on Godaddy Expiring Domains Auctions.

Isn't the price waaaaay too low? how did no one bid over that price?

how did no one bid over that price?

why should anyone? why didn't you?

 

[YairDD]

why should anyone? why didn't you?

I didn't know that it was available, just saw it today ( after it was gone ) on NameCult's list.

And what do you mean by why should anyone?

Isn't it an insane keyword to have? and only 405?
maybe I'm wrong, I dont know
thats why im asking here

A pron .net domain ? Waste of money.

But I wont be surprised if they flip it for 2-3 times that to some poor sap.

nets are tough sales.
they sell rarely.. and when they do, they fetch little.

adult related and in this case terms considered as basically vulgar by dictionary, have those sale odds decreased tenfold

something like spank..net... kinky/kink..net
would probably do bit better.. just due to the lesser vulgar factor.

I'd never pay $400 for wank..net.. personally.
and if you threw it here on np for reseller auction.. its unlikely you'd get more than $100.

cheers

Interesting.. I also thought it might be a decent name for resale but you make some good points so I agree that name in that extension isn't that great. However, in my opinion, vulgar or not, if this was a .com it could be worth 5 figures.

You can get a decent LLLL.com for $400.

you can, but I very much doubt you can get a LLLL .com that is a real / slang word for that much.

true.

my main point was that its net...not that its vulgar... but it is vulgar..and therefore it would reduce both com and net value imo

but now with 4l.com ... pronouncable etc...were entering a category apart as well..just cause its 4l com

i think 5figs possible for com..

could make nice adult company brand maybe.. but for nonadult its hard to be taken seriously when yer called wank.com
