Summer Doldrums & Winter Blues (3.Viewing)

I'm thinking of cranking my minimum bid up to $1K on all domains just to see what happens. I keep getting these $500 offers that go nowhere and often the (cough) "potential buyer" (i.e. domain hobo) is a bit of a doorknob and will write essays back on why he won't pay more than $500.

If I can get rid of at least some of these nitwits it will be a net win for me, no matter if I sell anything or not.

that was exactly my thinking when I did that over a year ago at Dan. I have my min around $800 to $1000 US, and higher for my better quality domains. Apart from the odd sale early on, it has been pretty quiet for over half a year. Tire kickers are definitely weeded out! I still point some domains to my own landing page with no min offer specified, and that's been equally as quiet. I just think the .ca domain aftermarket is slower/quieter than normal.

Definitely, but I'm really trying to get rid of the tire-kickers and hobos who don't seem to have more than $500. Hopefully a $1,000 minimum keeps them in their cages.

After a few months of quiet you start to miss them a little... 🥺

No way - I used to get stacks and stacks of GoDaddy inquiries at $100 and I don't miss those in the least.

When I get an offer, I want it to be from a serious buyer, and if there are no offers, then that means there are no serious buyers (yet) for those domains. No big deal.

that would be good if things pick up!

crypto markets are pretty hot again, you'd think there'd be more crypto related sales going on now. I mean bitcoin and solana, what a run they've had...

gold been at it's all time high and looking strong too, and Gold.com just recently sold.
