Offer on Sedo for a LLL .net with 3 stellar letters: $60 from a Russian bidder.

My response: that buys you a bottle of cheap vodka.

Am I being too harsh? :D

Sedo let the comment through, btw :D

$60 is like 3 months with a Russian prostitute + vodka. :D

even if they were the crappiest of letters, $60 is still too low

i think these bidders hope you will take the name to auction with these low bids, i've gotten quite a few lately

LOL

yes, like seraphim says, as long as you're outside moscow, you can pick up a bottle of vodka in some supermarkets for 50 cents

the moonshines cheaper, but dont touch that if you like your sight :uhoh:

I value domains based on a secret formula I have developed: gut feeling :D
Therefore, even if an offer for a LLL .net (for example) is $1k, I don't send to auction on Sedo.

My recent large sale started with a $2,000 bid. At any point during a negotiation, one needs to rely on their own evaluation of a domain's worth before considering a sale or an auction.

gotta admit,you guys in this forum got this game downpacked.maybe i'm trying to run before i learn to walk or even crawl,but i'm trying to get on your guys level.i blame rick schwartz though lol, he's going on these magazines telling people how easy this game is and showing off bracelets and cars and all that just dangling meat in front of my eyes.

but i realize that this hustle is one of studying, patience, trendwatching, and more patience.

To be fair, you can set a minimum bid price for your domains.

At least that's what I tell myself whenever I'm cursing someone for submitting a $60 offer :)

Yeah, I just had to do this as the Russian psycho returned after I canceled the first round of offers with another $60 bid :D

I think you took it easy on him actually...coming back with the same lame offer...

I set minimums of a couple hundred $$ for all of my names ....so I would not get the 10x a day $60 offers though...Although this may be a mistake on my part as I am sure a $60 offer has turned into a couple of K for some...

No worries. I think Sedo sets the limit of offers by the same person to 3x before they lock their account's ability to place further bids for that domain.

Cute message:

I'm NOT gonna use this domain for busines. And that's why i think my price represents the facts.
