[QUOTE="Mr.Domains, post: 2212813, member: 11593"] The global recession, I would say. Going back 4-5 years, people had a lot more spare cash, and could quite happily blow $200 - $300 each month on renewals or new registrations, etc. Many of them were college kids, and many of them, like me, never even really made a profit, just traded domains for a hobby, like some kind of adult baseball cards. Now days, people have a lot less spare cash, plus the cost of renewals has more or less doubled, (I used to pay $7 everytime, now it's more like $13). So I guess only the serious domain traders can afford to cover their costs, and most "hobbyists" have been driven out of the game. Just my opinion... nothing more. Edit: I've also noticed a big drop in the value of "low end" domains. Two word dot.com's that would have fetched $60 - $70 a few years back are now selling for $20 - $30. Domains that would have sold for $20 on here are now just dropping because nobody wants them. [/QUOTE]
