Many Members here know that the Want to Buy Section is a Joke as they keep posting but did not buy anything.

One simple solution would be if you are the sellers and sold names from the WTB section just post "1 sold" from the thread so that people will know if the Buyer is real Buyer or Fake Buyer.

I suggest to remove unsolicited ad threads "BB SH wanted threads" or move it to external section or create new section for BB SH BP users.

They just copy cat each other:
- Brandpa approved $5-$20
- Squadhelp approved $5-$20
- Godaddy and Estibot appraisal over $3,000 - I will pay 5% of the appraisal
- The Chinese Hype is over a long time ago but some still want to buy name with no A,O,U,I,V???
- Budget from $20-$20,000 - Total budget is $1,000,000 - Meaning I will buy $20 a piece.

Let's be honest though, if you've ever posted any WTB requests you know just how much crap is sent. I've posted a couple of requests with ranges I think most would deem realistic, like one word .app names for $xxx, and out of dozens of replies I maybe got three that actually were one-word, and of course all were strange words.

Yes, there are some absurd WTB requests, but man oh man the submissions are a wonder.

Agreed. One thing you forgot. Everything here is dictionary word and pronounceable.

And also the seller should post the amount the domain has been sold. No need to post the domain, just the amount.
Because as you say, people say they have a budget of $20,000 but they are only looking to buy domains for $20 bucks.
So, the seller can make a comment, once hi has sold a domain, saying "1 domain sold for $20" for example.
And if the Buyer keeps bumping the thread without any purchase, then we know what is happening, just another waste of time.

I post in the WTB section and I don't buy every single domain offered to me. Actually, it's more like I buy 5% of domains offered to me. Does this make me a non-serious buyer? Usually the seller is asking for way above market floor value, which I don't blame any of them for doing. It is what it is though. I don't think people are posting WTB threads for "fun" or to waste peoples time. If the buyer doesn't agree to buy your domain @ your set price, move on. It's not like you spend 40 hours of your week to send a couple DM's. It's a free lead, somebody asking for a domain - if an agreement can't be made, that's just business. It's basically a free lead, if it goes no where...big deal, move on.

Iโ€™ve actually made some Threads to buy now and got absolutely nothing but garbage domains which they want xxx for so it works both ways buddy.

oh yeah I thought you were leaving for about the 15,000 time.

You and Ante4L, I dont understand;

Some people have a verrrry strict criteria and even say โ€œwill report youโ€ if send dont match what iโ€™m looking for.

Seems like a non-issue if make tougher filters (character lengths, hyphens, #โ€™s etc)

It narrows down field of submissions, quite bit, hope enough to get a โ€œno thank youโ€ back lol

No clue what you're saying here or how that's related to my comment.

OP just sounds salty.

if narrow down Criteria be more specific
maybe the 5% acceptance goes up, in addition to quality of submissions.

Remember add โ€œwill report if send me names that dont meet my critieriaโ€ (ex: 5L when are look for 4L, or
non-chinese prem, when you asking for CHIPs

basically iโ€™m blaming you

itโ€™s โ€œnot both waysโ€

Have a tougher filter,

If iโ€™m looking for 4l, personally iโ€™d say โ€œno Xโ€
try to be as specific as possible, not broad.

I disagreed with the Chinese hype is over long time ago but some still want to buy name with no a,o,u,I,v

If you donโ€™t want to buy chip, itโ€™s up to you ....donโ€™t judge other people who want to buy it....as matter of fact I bought a couple recently and still buying ....pm me your Chinese chip

You are misquoting me completely.. I didn't say 5% of domains that are offered to me are what I'm asking for and rest are not.

I said, I end up buying around 5% of domains offered, the rest are way over priced so I pass. and I don't blame the seller for that.

Really confused at your posts.

How are they overpriced if you have budget?
Clear budget.. guess you would expand for the right names; itโ€™s tough, i get it, my bad for misquoting the 5% figure. Whatever the low % is just saying, u dont think have more specific standards what ur looking for help raise %?

Would be nice if you applied from logic to your posts. If I say my budget is up to $1,000 per domain, and somebody offers me their domain for $1,000, doesn't mean it's worth $1,000.

Well u never used the $1,000 figure! def cant relate.. not norm see;few worth $1,000 agreed!

I can see how % few names youโ€™d accept regardless of what you write, if $1,000+ for one

If i saw you and my domain met your criteria, iโ€™d submit it โ€”still with the lowest expectations.
but if itโ€™s anybody else, sorry ant, I truly think, theyโ€™re playing games, more than looking.

feel โ€œhigh budget WTBโ€ is domain โ€œcatfishingโ€
