bad economic times. "noone" has money now, and alot people need liquidity now, so why not give it a shot?



The difference between euro/ us$ in only 1 week > 15$ cents. I bought a 16k domain last week wich would actually cost me 2400$ less now

thats almost 18% difference in 6 days

If domains are "virtual real estate" then maybe they are mirroring that market and are only worth 50 - 70% of what they were before the real estate meltdown. [ except for generic one word domains and category killers ]

Its the flood of ROOKIES who think they can buy your quad premium LLLL or generic domains for Pennies! They get offended if you tell them, your offer is to low!


Quad premium - Rare letter combination - Rare bla bla


All AIR, any domain is rare, only 1 person can own it.

The air is coming out the bubble, wich is about time. New round, new chances!

tell me about it, however.. i would suggest you decrease your minimum offer... in the long run, its better to see 100000 offers made on your domain vs 4 :eek:

What do you expect.. look at buydomains - their the biggest low ballers in the industry

they are so loowwww in their offers, they make me sick! :disappointed:
Yeah but I hope they dont send unsolicited offers pretending to be some kind of small business. Though I guess if they really wanted to hide they wouldn't of used one of their domains to send the email.

I'm happy with what i have done now, I think if some one really wants the name he will pay no matter how many offers it has had, offers dont mean nothing to me loads are fake on sedo you see people advertising a name very cheap for like $60 and you know its worth a few k they get loads of offers to make it look good but again its waysting peoples time .
