Been happening a lot to me over the last 12 months.......
Posted earlier that I was messing around a lot last year with nameservers, pricing etc and was not consistent
I have now set BIN's on DAN with min offers in place and on Sedo, Afternic and Godaddy all at make offer ranging from $100 - $1000 to help gauge interest more than anything else......
I have had numerous offers in the $300 - $1000+ range and have flat out rejected them or countered and heard nothing back......also a lot of enquiries that went nowhere......
A few after countless back and forths never budged on their opening offers or raised to a level that I found not acceptable so I have raised the BIN on some and left others at the original BIN and not bothered replying back to some of them......one especially pissed me off so have tripled the price and renewed for a further 12 months
So does there come a point where you have to start accepting some of these offers for cash flow, renewals or do you stick to your guns?
I do not need the money per say so can keep doing this, but sometimes I have a nagging voice in the back of my head (and no it's not the wife @johnn !) saying just accept a couple of them, buy a better domain or renew a few of the good ones......
I'm at just below 300 domains - dropping down to around 230 - 250 in the next few months so on one side it would be nice to cover the renewals on the other side I can wait for a potential better pay day
Asking for your personal experience, opinions etc on what you do when you have a spell of offers and enquiries and no sales..........
