WTF?

ironically, ultrapremium.com is not ultra premium, lol.

well don't waste your time on .CA's. Efty says no .CA qualifies as ultra premium - not that I could find. Not even Canada.ca - the gov't website, lol. On the upside, all of my .com's I've checked so far and even my one .org are ultra premium.

Not sure why a registrar wouldn't grant their customers the maximum timeline like Baremetal does. And no baloney extra redemption fees. Maybe they made sense when there was more customer service required to do the job. And as far as I understand, there's no real reason it shouldn't all be a...

Yeah, he definitely has a point. Escrow.com is often more hassle than its worth. However, I also understand that they're thorough about the KYC laws, and I very much appreciate that too. So for larger deals where it really matters, Escrow.com is usually still a good option. It would be...

Yeah, I kinda wanted it too. I just don't have the expertise in using backlink domains to have the faith needed to drop $10K+ on it. I think for someone that knows their stuff, its a rare combination of a good domain + excellent backlinks.

Yeah, 20 years ago snowflake would have sounded great. Today, all I can think of is the negative connotation...

And that's why I don't place pre-orders there....

Not saying they do, but, just saying we miss the old days of not allowing domains to go to public auction so that the pre-TBR bidders who put in the effort wouldn't have to compete against the people wanting to slide into post-TBR auctions. And yeah, baremetal and grape's systems are definitely...

Well the issue he's complaining about is that he/we used to be able to put in countless hours of effort each week to identify the small percentage of actually valuable domain names in the list, we would then place pre-TBR bids, and then IF that registrar caught the domain, we would get it at...

It's probably easier, just more expensive.

Lol, yes, we do too. But there is another reality in domain economics too. Critical mass. When you're asking 5 and 6 figures, your sell through rate is VERY low and negotiations can easily last 6 months for one sale. If you only sell 1% per year, and you have 100 domains, you will only get 1...

He's just saying that the price can vary wildly depending on both the circumstance and that particular moment in time for both the buyer and seller. The more rare/unique/popular/valuable the domain, the more that statement is true. And LL's are considered among the most potentially valuable...

That's the nice thing about paying for a workspace account, I've gotten support from real people, not just chatbots. I can see how a free gmail account using AI might get suspended - there's enough abuse with gmail accounts as it is.

ouch. sounds like their AI outfoxed his AI.
