So when Irving Berlin wrote the lyrics to "Everybody's Doin' It Now" he literally meant everyone? Wow. There I was thinking he was using hyperbole as some kind of literary device.
[USER=959487]@FlippaDomains Hi Kevin. The main problem Flippa have to deal with is the fact that you went from 1,000 domains on sale last year to 130,000 this year. This volume is hard to deal with. You will have to find a way to EQUALLY serve all your users and not just a handful. The good point is that you are victim of your own success! I wish you good luck in dealing with this and make all you users happy. [/USER]

Can you list some of the auctions you're currently seeing this with?
"Everybody" is a generalization. I feel bad for ppl who think the term always means its literal meaning. There are billions of ppl in this world. If EVERYBODY was doing something.... lol
Perhaps "everybody is breathing" or similar...
@Grace Delete thanks for the advice. learning... learning...
@KCGroup Wow! Passing a $170,000 sale is courageous! Or maybe you bought this domain name for 6 figures + and that would explain why you let go a $170,000 sale? Or the reserve was not met! That must be it... learning... learning... Too bad you are now at 78% success down from 100%
@ImageAuthors I admire your guts! I totally agree with you. Flippa seems to be geared towards high end users that can afford loosing the $350 Premium add-ons if the site or domain don't sell.
Also, this "Front Page Feature" thing is so UNFAIR! Everywhere on the Internet, when you post something, you get the very first page position until someone else place an add or whatever. It can be very short but still, you get the first place like anybody else. Fair play for everyone.
When I post a domain name or a website for sale on Flippa, I DON'T SEE IT ANYWHERE on Flippa unless I search for the exact term. Hey! Where is my offer???

@Grace Delete So am I doing good?

I'm not running this place but I would not recommend overusing the @ because you can subscribe to threads and set it so you get notified on [quoted] so it's overkill unless you want to bring someone new into the fold (or you are taking someone's name in vain in which case it is fair to give them an opportunity for rebuttal)[USER=153719]@Grace Delete So am I doing good?[/USER]
Well maybe then he should have said..Sorry, I think that one went over your head. I know he didn't literally mean everybody but to say it in such terms
You’ve been invited by KCGroup to participate in the post-auction negotiation for Whiskey.com, which ended unsold.
KCGroup is willing to accept $1,224,000, or near offer, for this domain.
You have 72 hours to accept or return a counter offer.
If you do not take action within 72 hours the offer will be rejected automatically.
You have a point here this_username_was_banned. I understand this BUT maybe Flippa was more "variety of users" oriented years back and now because of those very big value domains and lots of domain on sale, it is not the case anymore. I think Flippa made it because of newbies like me starting domaining and continue to do it because of a certain amount of success on Flippa.Why would a $10 sale be treated the same as a $50,000 sale? That doesn't make any sense.
It's all about quality and truthfully if your domain isn't worth at least $349... What's the point in listing it?

He's just the broker with an exclusive listing on Flippa (though the name is also on Sedo).
Would have been an $18,500 loss on this name.
Everyone knew reserve was much higher... could just have well had member 100 with $100 of prior bids put in $300,000 and see what happened. Worse case? I'm sure the email / proxy-ip would have been banned.

Bees do it
Even educated fleas do it...
People say in Boston even beans do it
Oysters down in oyster bay do it...
Even lazy jellyfish, do it
Though it shocks 'em I know why ask if shad do it
English soles do it
Goldfish in the privacy of bowls do it
The monkeys and the birds, bees do it
In, in water gates they quarrel but they do it
And if they can make up and still do it baby, how about me and you?
Hey let's do it now
Let's do it, let's all fake bid on domains...
Flippa collects a lot of listing fees and commissions for listings that sell below $349 Shane, I agree if you have a quality name then you can justify it, but there are plenty of names selling and even more that all pay a listing fee to get on
That was Cole Porter John, not Irving Berlin.
1 Super Premium = 39 standard listings.
Not to mention 10% of $1,000+ is worth a lot more than 10% of $100.
It behooves Flippa to cater to the high-end market rather than the low-end.
Nice catch but IB was "Everybody's Doin' It Now"..... different toon.

Congrats on ITMagazine, I saw someone regged and put InformationTechnologyMagazine.com on Flippa, it sold for $18.
Yeah but since when all newbies have only shitty domains for sale?It's best this way. Once all these free credits are used up, we'll likely stop seeing shitty domains there. If you have a bad domain, go to eBay, ppl!
I wonder thought if that include the "free" portfolio listings?
That's what I though too but then, Flippa should show us how many domains are in auction now NOT counting the domain catalogs.Pretty sure it's the domain catalogs of all sellers.

I've been domaining since May 2014 and managed to purchase a $24,000 Estiboot valued domain name.
There is a filter, when I click auctions - 3,947 Domains
You would probably get a better appraisal here, Estibot can be very off.

Because you're just starting in domaining doesn't mean you wont get valuable domains.
Every SUPER DUPER DOMAINERS have been newbies first

This said, I'm looking forward to Flippa's removal of the free credits in exchange of bogus domain evaluation too. 150,000 domains for sale on Flippa is ridiculous. I wonder thought if that include the "free" portfolio listings?
Oups! Just realized that I need a $5/month account to ask for a domain appraisal here at NamePros. Sorry about that. Thanks Archangel for your valuable input.
Thanks JB Lions too for your input on my domain.
* is it worth $5/month to post $2 to $10 domain sales here like I see a lot? How can someone sale a domain that they purchased for $8.95 for only $2?
