Owen

I can only speak for myself.

I have plenty of domains and at this point I’m only willing to spend money on domains which are a natural fit to something else I have or something that I feel is an incredible bargain.

Not too many incredible bargains in those auctions

1. Is there a list somewhere of Domain Brokers — that are successful at it ??

Well Sedo.com seems to have weekly five and six figure domain sales and hundreds of smaller deals.

2. Is there a source of SOLDS stats — for domains BY Extension…
For Example if for that week someone needed info on solds in
the .tv .info or .org ONLY — is there a place that spits that out for us in that format ??

I don’t have this nor am I aware of any source that has a searchable database.

Ask Ron Jackson if you can take the historical info off of Dnjournal.com and make up a searchable database.

3. Anyone have “connections” to get names INTO the Events…

It’s frustrating to see lots of sub-par names make it in when each of
us KNOW we had something BETTER that wasn’t accepted…
I know.. I know we all think our names are the best… I don’t…
but when one is… well… it is…

I understand your frustration. I do not think anyone has an “in”.

However if you have a very good domain at a excellent reserve you should get into any event.

Mike, would be curious what your take on what this says about the industry and the lack of buying enthusiasm. Many great names were passed and a lot very sold very cheaply. Do you think the big investors just have too much inventory or that if you have $300K to invest maybe domains are no longer the best place to park your money?

I think overall it has to be considered a disappointment but I do think there were some good buys in the group. Unfortunately, there are good buys everywhere and therefore maybe they’re not as good as I think

I wouldn’t have picked OneOfAKind.com to sell for the most our of the bunch, but it doesn’t surprise me. Every domain is one of a kind, and many services as well.
