is this the biggest PRIVATE SALE ??

shags38 · #1 22-10-10, 08:44 PM

just wondering if there has previously been a single bigger offering of dot com names in here - Private Sale that is - ?

www.Names3D.com - nearly 1,200 dot com 3D Domains (some good ones as you would expect with such a big number

)

I will be adding nearl 600 AU domains when I recover from this exercise

Comments appreciated - orders even more appreciated

cheers,
Mike

site sucks but gets the message out there I suppose - any hints on how best to put an excel spreadsheet on the web??.

You should be able to use google docs to download a spreadsheet as an html file and then just upload that to your site.

yes - a hell of a lot of average ones - great observation given that I had already said that - everyone is a critic - if I get 10 good ones out of that bunch I will be happy - a 200:1 ratio

but yes some crappy ones - if you read the site you will see that I actually use the word crap in reference to some of my domains.

It seems they are all worthless so I am selling the whole kit and kaboodle for $2000 - last count was 2,064 domains, so less than $1 each. My problem is no-one will but them because they are worthless - rock and a hard place right? Trying to get out of the business and still getting nowhere

So thanks for the tips on the excel uploads but I will not be wasting one more minute on this pile of crap.

You'd probably be better off trying to learn from Snoopy than hating him for pointing out the obvious and saying what everyone else is thinking.

No one likes looking bad, but you'll go a lot further if you take your mistakes in your stride. And everyone on these forums has made em... I even made a thread about it:

...and these are only the mistakes people are willing to acknowledge publicly.

The thing about buying crap domains is that they are so hard to do anything with and there is no money spending time developing domains with no end user value.

Maybe you could try to find some black hat spammer who just wants throw away domains names at a dirt cheap prices to create some link wheel, splog empire or something...

Just remember...

Bad investments happen even to the best. Warren Buffett never took a risk that he could not outlive and he did learn from these blunders.

And I commend you for making sure you don't let one portfolio of bad investments steal what is still worth a lot - your time.

Often we get caught in our own psychology of trying to salvage bad investments for no return on our time when we should be moving onto more fruitful projects.

Hear, hear. It's not easy to let go of domains but it's in your best interest once you know the project/domain/whatever is worthless. Everyone makes purchasing mistakes. A few months ago I spent $700 on a domain that is worthless, I doubt I'll bother renewing it when that time rocks around.

My mistake was either a costly one or a cheap lesson. I like to think of it as the latter.

cnc is right, best to see if you can offload to a black hat seo to recover capital. try one of their forums.

By the way: Are you getting any significant traffic at all on these domains?
