advice What a time to be alive! (purchased domain name for peanuts).

[Brands.International]

So doing my cardio yesterday, and got a message from a domain seller with whom I initiated the discussion about casino.cool domain name something like a year ago. At that time, they wanted a higher price which was no bargain to me, but after a year, they accepted my initial price offer (which was, honestly, pretty much law ball)

TLDR: I just purchased CASINO.COOL for less than 1K!

What a time to be alive!

But, and to be honest ... as I stated multiple times on this forum ... do not let your best assets go cheap. While I do understand that many of you do not yet understand the value of good new domain names, some names simply scream quality! Do not sell them to guys like me who already have enough, hold something good for yourselves as well!

And what do you think guys? Am I getting value, or is the seller getting value exchanging a name like this for a little bit of money, which are being printed now each and every day anyway? Share your honest, 2021, opinion!

On the fun side, be it tacky, classy or flashy everybody goes to casinos dressed in their version of cool.

"Casino Cool" is a fashion. An iconic dress-culture, on-stage and off. A video montage would be classic.

Lol, did not think about it from this perspective at all Thank you.

Thought this was going to be a thread for share those domains you can't quite believe you got for the price you did.

Anyways, literally a cool domain. Congrats.

hi

It's difficult to say. The reality is that a domain may be very valuable for a couple of people and have no value for the vast majority. It depends on what it's going to be used for I suppose.

Good Luck with it. I hope you make a good profit though!

Regards

Hard to tell.

I personally don't think it worths the reg. fee. and I wouldn't buy that domain.

But on the other hand there is already 2 people who have been interested in this domain name. 1st the guy who hand. reg.ed the domain, and than lolwarrior who bought the domain from aftermarket...

There is no reason to assume that there won't be a 3rd or 4th owner for that name, if it's priced right for the potential buyer.

Where this guy lolwarrior / brands.international had problems was with unsubstantiated claims that were in fact sometimes positively contradicted by evidence that he was making up or inflating sales. Such as in his dot live thread. Otherwise, no one gave him a hard time.

Such as here:
https://www.namepros.com/threads/af...d-my-whole-live-portfolio-until-2025.1136623/

To his credit, this thread is truthfully about buying the domain not already claiming to have sold it.

 

[Brands.International]

I wasn't comparing TLDs but "casino" keyword amongst them. A lot of domain discussions are subjective, but sometimes there's common sense amongst it.

casino.cool
VS
casino.buzz

buzz is better here as the two words make a phrase. "Casino Buzz" has meaning and even good grammar. "Casino cool" is not grammatically correct and has no real meaning.

You are right in this mate, "casino buzz" i a phrase, I get it now

Maybe not the best practice to take a quote from my (sarcastic) replay from one thread and put it without relevant reference and context in another, 1-year-old thread, as you just did, just to feel that you are right.

Anyway, when it comes to online behavior, you do you, and I do me

Thanks, Ahmet, friend .. it is nice to interact after a while

Well, the pricing is now around 200k - I know what most here would say - as one of my friends said recently when checked my pricing "once at brands.international, always at brands.international" - but I rather keep it, than sell for few bucks!

Because when it comes to money, they are PRINTING them now at unprecedented speed...everyone should remember that

I didn't even know .cool existed. I would probably not even register it if I found it on a list of available handregistrations.

That said, I don't spend much time with ngtlds.

 

[3sixty]

I like the domain b.cool. Just checked and it is re-directing to a company called Blaser dot com.

No idea why. But hey, pretty .cool right?

 

[King]

Well, it's a good keyword, also all these people bringing up namebio as if every domain marketplace reports sale and as if private sales don't occur.

 

[Revisiting]

It is always nice to read Brands International actively posting about his personal investments - I just think had he been a native of an English speaking country his investments may well have been better at identifying the 'cohesiveness' of word pairing and its application in the English language.

I do admire the guy for his constructive posts of late, sharing his beliefs (And Not the old Ntld promotional garbage) I just wish he had been Brit Born, He would have been a darn good mind to work with.

Casino dot cool = anything over $50 was overpay to my mind.

 

[Jason Baudendistel]

Congratulations on your polished turd, good luck on SEO with that domain you'll need it.

 

[Jason Baudendistel]

No disrespect intended and I assume your not the type of person you give a shit about others opinions so enjoy and maybe you'll surprise us.

@DigitalRoar As one of these people who are bringing up NameBio- reported data naturally isn't all the data and maybe not even close to it. However, it's an indication of how well extensions are doing. If you want to believe that there are hundreds/thousands/millions of unreported .cool sales and that for some reason only a few dozen have been reported up till now and those too all resulted in sales lower than $600- then that's of course something you can believe in. By all means, invest heavily in the .cool extension if that makes sense to you. But since sales data exists and more informed decisions can be made based on it, shooting in the dark by betting decent amounts of money on such an extension probably isn't a great investment strategy. An investor can get lucky, but paying as an investor more than any reported sale ever is usually a recipe for disaster (especially if done on a consistent basis).

I own zero .cool domains and it will always be that way, LMAO wtf are you ranting at me for?

 

[SuperBrander]

@DigitalRoar Not ranting. Just commenting about your post regarding people discussing namebio. I'll refresh your memory though you made the post today:

"Well, it's a good keyword, also all these people bringing up namebio as if every domain marketplace reports sale and as if private sales don't occur."

Don't make illogical comments discussing people who brought up namebio, if you don't want logical responses from the people who brought up namebio.

Well learn to properly respond, everything after

was just randomly railing on your assumption that I own or support .cool which I don't.

 

[SuperBrander]

@DigitalRoar The comment that you made about the people in this thread who are advocating investing based on data (=using namebio), a group that I happen to belong to, justified a little cynicism about what that kind of thinking can lead to, IMO. Anyway... this exchange is pointless so I'll bow out at this point. All the best.
