Well those numbers are based on appraisals i got. I posted to get a reality check. Although some people have shown interest for LenderPortal.com at ~10,000$. No deal went through yet though...

Hi,

I honestly don't think they are worth the amounts listed, I'd be really surprised if anyone out there would be willing to pay those prices for them.

I know for certain that if the above listed ".com" names were posted with other tlds they'd get a pretty unanimous thumbs down with $0-type valuations. Despite having an optimistic stance about the new tlds even I'd agree with that type of valuation. The hard fact is that the current/future value of domains would depend, imo, much more on whats on the left side of the tld....obviously .com on the right would, as of now, increase the value by 5-10 fold. The days when names with strings of words (2-3) commanded mid-to-high 4 figures are long gone and that unfortunately is true even for .com. Payoll & Steel are very strong words though I'm not familar at all with .CC's re-sale situation. Good Luck.

Man, sorry, but none of the domains are worth even close to these figures. Some of them are een close to $0 if not $0. Let me be stroke by lightning, if Im wrong. :D

Reality check..

I have to agree. There is not a single one that I would pay a reg fee for. Hope you will do better but in today's market I can't see those doing anything.

I have to agree - and the appraisal you had must be from a few years ago?

The appraisal was done a week ago or so. Guess they are off. Although i did have some people emailing me their interest for LenderPortal.com for ~10,000$

Dunno how legit the offers are, still working on them.

Sell immediately if you get the chance.

Like i said dunno how legit the offers are. Got contacted after sending an email ad through AllForDomains.com. But i'v heard they may be a rip off. So there is always a chance that the repplies are only coming from them to get me going and buy ads from them.

One of them wanted trademark papers to say there was no infringement and also like ~10,000 unique visitors/month. Sine it's a new domain, even with type ins, it won't get that much.

Another few potentials havn't gotten back to me yet. It being the holidays, it's understandable that things are being slow.

And the other one said he didn't have the current finances but had some potentially interested contacts and would try to negociate with them (for a comission).

Will see what comes out of it...

Welcome to the board spudleyk.

I hope you didn't pay much for those appraisals. I'm guessing you probably did since you mentioned allfordomains.

Their sales tactic is quite crafty. They send mails out advertising your domains then have one of their own employees e-mail you (posing as a buyer) expressing interest in one or more of your domains.

This is done to encourage you to purchase paid appraisals from them at $30/ea (they also own fastdomainsales.com) and more advertising. Stay clear.

More accurate appraisals:

OnGet.Com - 10$
LenderPortal.Com - 60$
BestHostingNow.Com - 20$
JavaEdu.Com - 40$
BenefitGateway.com - 10$
LocateWork.com - 200$ << nice, usable name
Payroll.cc - 40$
Steel.cc - 20$

Thanks RJ.

Indeed one of the replies did ask for an appraisal suggesting FastDomainSales. Unfortunateley i did spend some to get some of the domains appraised.

Guess i was duped. Well see what will happen....

Thanks for your honnest appraisal...

Really? I don't think anyone here is more skeptical about non .com domains than me, but come on. Even I would pay more for excellent one-word .cc's just to have them.

Interesting... Well i got the .cc by pure speculation. I understand the situation with those TLDs but guessed that since they are pretty strong one word domains, i'd be worth a try. What's your guess on their value?

I wouldn't. I think -RJ-'s appraisals were right on the money (maybe even a little high). It has been demonstrated over and over that these names have no resale value. If you want one word .cc's they are still available by the boatload (as are .ws and the rest)

Well, I agree with everyone above ... so here is your Reality Check. By the way, where were you provided with THOSE appraisals??
The .CC's are the lowest form of domain extensions! Good Luck.

fontrowmktg, if you're open to buying .cc or .ws domains, now is the time to buy them. You can buy many great keywords in these extentions from sellers unloading them in the sub $100 range. Go make a thread in the Domains Wanted area.
