“where do “they” get these preconceived notions that domaining is easy?”

October 9, 2020 by Raymond Hackney 1 Comment

Monday I wrote a post about one domain investor throwing in the towel on domain investing. The post has gotten a fair bit of engagement and a good discussion on Namepros. Longtime member and domain investor Biggie asked the question: where do “they” get these preconceived notions that domaining is easy, that you can make […]

When the wholesale doubles the previous retail price

October 7, 2020 by Raymond Hackney 2 Comments

A failed promise to deliver a $9 computer leads to a domain name expiration and an $8,850 close. One of the complaints I read a lot on forums from those who have dropped out of the expired auction game, is that the pricing is just too high for a lot of names. Sometimes end users […]

October 3, 2020 by Raymond Hackney Leave a Comment

I started writing in July about GoDaddy failing to collect payment and it becoming DropCatch’s gain. I wrote about everydaycounts.com closing at auction on GoDaddy for $2,601.
