Do you ever second guess a drop? (1.Viewing)

I drop very few domains because I traditionally select them very carefully.

Once in a while I will drop 10 or so that have had little to no activity.

Not long ago I dropped MapleOil.ca & MapleOil.com

Originally when I registered them I was thinking of the Oil Fields in Canada but I figured a few companies owned all of them and chances of them wanting the domains were slim so I dropped them.

Huge Domains snapped up MapleOil.com and in retrospect I know it could be used in the Marijuanna catagory for Canada.


Two Questions....

1. How often do you second guess drops?

2. Has Huge Domains picked up your drops?

Between Huge Domains and Drop Catch, they capture everything. Except that Drop Catch has a way of auctioning it off within a week, which is what most Canadian drop catchers have mastered in taking the domainer to the cleaners, where as Huge Domains put it on the shelf for years.

Wearing my contrarian hat again. Nobody forces us to participate or bid on the domains that drop. If we really want a domain, we can just approach the owner before the domain drops and try and buy it. Let's not forget about how much WE markup domains when selling them. Everyone has their hand in the jar...we are no better than the drop companies.
