Also agree...there's very little chance of that ever being the case.

LLL.com will continue to appreciate faster in value than the rest IMHO :)
I'm not an hyphen believer anyway.

Across the board, reseller prices?
Never. Maybe 10% is more realistic, but may take more than 2 years also.


However there are plenty of enduser sales in the low - mid xxxx range
That's the target customer really

as a percentage roi i disagree

i sold z-z-m(.)com for $1k the other week to an enduser
cost me $7 last year

zzm.com is not obviously for sale, if it had been then maybe they would have gone to high xxxx for that i dunno
the original registrant may well have have hand regged it back in the day.
if not and you're buying it for say $9k now, you may have to wait years to even double your money

i think L-L-L.com are the next best thing to LLL.com and for small -medium endusers offer a great affordable way to get their acronym in com

the reseller market is slowly burning upwards but in answer to the o/p's question, 'no' is my opinion.
these are better to hold for endusers, as are LLL.com of course

not bad, did they contact you first?

I think for an end user it's not that sensible to think of L-L-L.com, I'd imagine they'd much rather go for LLL.net, or LLL.org first etc, although I may be wrong here as I dont have any L-L-L.com's

I've had a few
They have all approached me

Over 25% of L-L-L.com are developed so stats show endusers do choose this type
As far as LLL.org and LLL.net are concerned, they are nice enough but i personally wouldn't use them as an enduser. I personally hate net but LLL.org are very underpriced but not sure whether big business would choose an org, or even small business

I'm actually working up a list of developed L-L.com
It's interesting stuff.
A lot of these firms chose L-L.com over LL.com even when they had chance, and always over other extension alternatives

Fact is a lot of them are solicitors, engineers etc
Must say for a solicitor i would think LLL.org would work beautifully

As you know Michael in the UK people use co.uk and .com
net is not used, rarely

never

actually L-L-L will be names with a good value in 5-10 years
it will happen due to many reasons such as internet growth, increase of value of small names and scarcity of good names to be used by end-users as they are great acronyms like LLL and hyphens mean nothing when you are serching for them, they hurt their values though

today internet has a penetration of just 18% worldwide and BRIC (brazil, russia, india and china) will bring more than 1 billion people to the internet in the years to come; i dont know how many new businesses there will be in the internet in 5-10 years

i sold in february a L-L-L for $2,500 and i have more than 100 (including words) to sell for end-users

LLL.com will be very very valuable in the future, so i think L-L-L.com will have between 10-20% value of a LLL.com

I have 70 odd L-L-L domains

I bought only bought those combinations till of which LLL.com's are developed.

So i was thinking let's say in 2 to 3 yrs time.If LLL would value any where from 50k to 60k minimum so L-L-L might be at least 5k

LLL and L-L-L are 2 totally different species that cater to 2 different kinds of buyers IMO. Large firms have deep pockets and will spend whatever to get their LLL (unless its developed and then they might become customers). While L-L-L is a cheaper (but still quality) option to startups etc that still want to own 'their acronym .com' but at a better price.

They are very brandable especially in print and if they spell a word they are very/extra easy to remember eg- F-L-Y , how brandable is that? Plus how much did FLY.com sell for back in 99? They both get the point across and are both memorable.

I have about 100 of these bad boys and have had many offers and one sale of XXXX to a major world bank in the past 6 months - C-G-A. I will not sell mine for under XXXX and every month I see sales that back this up.

It really doesn't matter to L-L-L holders what the "wholesale price" is for these and/or if other domainers see value in them as I am selling to endusers and monthly XXXX sales back this up.

good luck all, gary.

interesting thoughts...

I think L-L-L will never be more than 15%-25%-ish of the value of an LLL

I do like the look of both though...

what would this one be valued at - in your opinion ??
1-4-9.com

thanks in advance...

Frankly i have not seen a single sale of N-N-N lately

so putting a price would be difficult

I have heard most of the N-N-N are developed.

I sold 2 L-L-L.com just this week to endusers.

The first one contacted me and was from Germany: we agreed on 350 Euro (about $550)

The second one, I contacted them, they are in Spain and offered me 200 Euro (about $312)

There is demand but I`d say that a fair value of L-L-L.com could be between 10 % and 20 % of their similar LLL.com
