What're my chances?

[chimaera]

Anyone else watching stylish.net on Snap? Opinions on what it's worth?

I was quite optimistic when I saw only 10 other bidders. Then my eyes fell on benfranklin and saggydimes ... along with the mandatory halvarez of course. So I'm thinking it will go for too much. Ah well.

Ha!!! Chances?? None, now!!!
Good luck anyway!! :yell:

Why none now? It's not like it's a must have name, and I know what I think it's worth, so ...

I think he's referring to the fact that Saggydimes - BenFranklin - Halvarez - Vaxis etc are known for having a rather large budget to play with !!! and do so on a regular basis.

But then again - we don't know what your buget is ??

Basically if that lot are there prepare to spend..spend..spend
Good luck and please let us know how you get on.

those people always bid high, do we know what is the profit margin such as saggydimes et al get?

 

[AmD950]

you got ben franklin in the bidders' list
you got no hopes...

 

[chimaera]

Last domain I really wanted was tutankhamun.net - but mr Franklin outbid me and I assumed would go even higher.

I'm also watching sandcastle.net now, but yet again, dimes, franklin and halvarez are there, and this time vaxis too. Ah well, it's fun watching these auctions even if they aren't won.

 

[aznchong91]

lol. Posting it here would just get more people to join the bidding... good luck anyway! (are Franklin, dimes, etc part of Namepros? lol)

i think you underestimate its value because from where im standing it is a must have name.

If you have an unlimited budget then it is a great name..

This is not exactly correct - In Snapnames you cannot join or view an auction once it has started. If you had'nt already backordered it you are out of the picture.

This is different to Pool auctions as far as I am aware, that's why I prefer Snapnames :blink:

At least you don't have to worry about the curse now ! :lol:

Exactly. Besides the small chance that one of those bidders is watching the name and views this thread, therefore seeing my interest, there's no danger in me announcing what I am watching on there.

Interesting that you view it so highly - tell you what, tell me your budget and I'll attempt to buy it for you =0p

Shhhhhhhh!!!

Next time, if you really want to "snap" a domain, don't mention it on here, or anywhere.... keep it to yourself. You only decrease your chances by letting everyone know. "Namepros" members woudl never try to beat you to it ( ), but people from other forums may be watching!!

It's the same as finding a great deal on www.Ebay.com that you bid on, and then asking what you think the odds are of winning it! :o

Good luck again

Frank

 

[chimaera]

No, because the difference is on ebay that anyone could then go and bid on it. With Snapnames, it's limited to the 10 bidders there already. So I don't really think there's much harm in posting the information.

Anyway ... we'll see how it goes.

 

[chimaera]

Well it went for $650 in the end - probably not a bad price but more than I was willing to pay.

benfranklin won, bidding against saggydimes towards the end.

 

[chimaera]

Man, franklin and dimes went at it again for sandcastle.net - $1,601 to franklin! Next top bid besides those two was $320.

(sorry for the repeat posts if no-one's interested but me ... )
