Closing in on August and only 21 reported 3L.com sales in 2021. A reader asked me why so few sales?
If we look at 2020 there were only 43 and that was down from 76 in 2019 and 94 in 2018 and 147 in 2017.
I think those holding them from an investment standpoint have a higher asking price in mind. These are sought after domain names that those who know the market are not going to sell cheap.
Some of the 21 sales in 2021 have been drops, DYW.com was once owned by Time Inc. IK Ltd. and it dropped. LTP.com dropped last week and was caught at DropCatch. The winner of the auction was the same person who won Alcove.com, ZeeDomainer.
DropCatch also caught AAF.com once owned by The Alliance of American Football. They caught AQS.com which sold for $31,387.
I talk to many people who want to buy a 3L.com but don’t want to go over a certain price and that price is currently below market.
Are you in the market for a 3L.com?
The reason why volumes have fallen is because the LLL.com market has collapsed. Down 70%.
When that happens when prices fall is that most people don’t sell rather than sell at a loss. What does sell wholesale mostly goes for very low prices.
People know these names aren’t desirable for startups and the China boom is unlikely to ever return.
You are so behind the curve you are nearly up your own ….. you’ve been negative on 3L.coms all the way up from 2,000usd Cassandra

They are scarce, so “HODL” your rare LLL.com’s and let the price rise. The real question is, how many more LLL.coms go OTMF (off the market forever) each year?
