I am a beginner in dn selling and I have registered a few bad domains, I'm thinking of just deleting them because they really are not gonna sell unless I push the boat out and really advertise them and spend more money on then than their worth, what is your advice?

Put them up on eBay if they do not sell there then maybe trade them for other names or develop them. If that does not work or they are that bad and will get no traffic parked then you can just let them expire. Would be easier to give you some feedback if you could list the domain names. Hope that helped you out.

I heard eBay wasn't very good for selling domains.

The ones I think aren't that great are

eBay isn't good for getting top-dollar for a domain, but if it otherwise won't sell, just try listing it on eBay with a low starting price and no reserve. It won't hurt.

You could also try listing it on the Afternic Bazaar if you're a member there, auctions similar to ebay but specifically for domain names.

I agree with David. Even though you will not sell them for high price, but at least you'll get some money out from the unused domain. Or you can try to develope them .You can park them at 1plus.net or buy website if you lazy to develope. Submit them to directories. Try to raise the pr coz it would increase the value of the domain if you plan to sell on ebay coz ebayer love domain with pr, especially pr 4 and above.

I have seen plenty worse names than these before. Don't expect to sell domains straight after registration, it rarely happens. Open a parking account with someone like namedrive, sit them there and wait. If no interest/revenue, consider developing or letting them drop, but don't delete them, its pointless.
p.s. I like taxifind.co.uk, wonder if it could be made into a wap site, could be successful. :)

Park them and see how they do.

I would park them up and see if you get any rev (anything is a bonus) :)

No point in just deleting as even a small sale is better than nothing.

Try ebay if you like or you could put them up for auction here.....nps are always a great way to buy new domains :)
