.tv You Snooze - You Lose!

[GoneWalkabout]

Woke up, checked my list...

Several great names available including:

Derby
Supermarket
Pilot
Patient
Med
Forum

Ready to buy, but had a shower, made a coffee, and then decided to call a TV producer I know to let him know that I have also noticed there is a name available that would suit his current project.

Then we end up on the phone for 90 minutes at the end of which I realise that from his point of view, and that of his colleagues, internet TV (and by default the .TV extension) is growing faster than ever.

End the call even more buzzed and then start on some ideas. More wasted time.

Finally check my names again - FOUR of the SIX ARE GONE - and two of them were priced at over $1000 each.

Could kick myself! However, I did manage to get Patient and Pilot so all not bad.



Make NO mistake, the real landrush is happening right now.

It would be really good to see figures for the rate at which the repriced premiums are being sold?


Anyone else snoozed and losed?

How can I hate you? I still managed to get PILOT and PATIENT - names that have a quality future!

Forum is a FAB name and you deserve it for publishing your lists during 'Frenzy 1'


Actually, I can't wait for you to turn Forum into a channel - just so I can go on it and talk about you!

Supermarket is also taken already by one great guy

Thanks
During last 12 months I developed about 20 sites and I'm still developing.
I have 2 in the list and then I will develop 2 or 3 .tv I took during this days madness.
My only fear is the fact that all my websites that are going well are in Italian. The english one are not performing good at all...

TwoMoon you've given me a BlueMoon moment!

But I'll get over it.

Good catch!

Patient

Interesting. I think that name wouldnt be sold for reg fee in NP TV marketplace 2 weeks ago. IMHO.

Thanks It would be a good addition to my Supermarkets!

Totally agree.

However, that was two weeks ago! - a completely different era!


The name then was a $1500 a year premium - and, in my mind, with good reason.

We all have different ideas and strategies. I didn't just blow $660 on this on a whim - I know there is a market for it.

Quick clarification (and concur that we all have varying ideas, opinions, and strategies);
was it $660 for PILOT.TV and PATIENT.TV (and/or others?) ... and what's the (new) market for each? :gl:

Thanks much,
Jeff

I need help, I just got Government.tv. For some reason, this name just keep nagging on me to get it. Maybe, because we have "Government tv stations in the United States and maybe something could come of this name. What do you guys think?

Thanks, Jim

The list is endless.

A TON of opportunities, sweet one!

Good Luck!
