A marketplace charging 20% is actually taking away 80% of your net profits (3.Viewing)

Someone asked in a private group about how many domains they'd need to sell at a $2k price point to make some money so I spun up a calculation based on a 1% STR and the results are really interesting...and also a little depressing. There's lots to discuss and take from it but my biggest takeaway by far was just how much an average 20% commission eats into your net profit at this price point/STR...80%.
So selling 1% at $2,000 on a marketplace charging 20% is actually taking away 80% of your net profits. EIGHTY PERCENT!

Also, holding 2000 names to make $10k a year isn't the stuff of dreams so think about your pricing strategy and portfolio quality. 1%/$2,000 isn't the way.
