China is not a democracy, that's why they can pass stupid laws that are repressive. Nigeria is a democracy and that nonsense won't be allowed to stand.

It seems after the fight with Daura's daughter, they have made this woman to be making mistakes that would ruin her reputation in public. First was campaigning for Bello and now this.

She's fast losing it.

pray they won't cancel tomorrow.

tranxo:
Hmmm. When did you submit these names?

Ksslib:
I have been a silent follower of this thread for verrrrry long time and have not found the need to make a comment because I haven't invested in domaining, hence no sales report, hence no need to comment.

I usually prefer to watch, but if I don't say something on this one, my throat might likely burst from the pressure build-up of the anger I have been holding back.

The person who shared the link of this thread to NP is not wise at all. No need to mince words here, we are not babies, neither is it an insult. It is a proper observation. The person lacks emotional intelligence and foresight. Why in God's precious name will you share the link of a family meeting that has benefitted and changed alot of lives to a gathering in which our direct & indirect competitors are probably present? People who most of do not even like you in the first place, and feel you can never/should not be superior to them in anyway, including financially.

Do you realise the implications of that singular act of carelessness? Why do we always get carried away the moment it involves a foreigner? The disadvantages of sharing that link far outweighs any preconceived advantages. You just rush share link because you were carried away, forgetting that this is business, and business is war for people like them, and war is strategy.

A simple "Hey guys, do you think it will be okay to share this thread's link?" would have been better. And it would have been discussed, sighting advantages and disadvantages. Do you think they don't have thier own secret, private cocoons where they discuss strategy too? Why dem no share am give us too?

Iyke singlehandedly created this thread, other gurus continue to contribute to it, people are making money and benefiting from it, so what other big advantages were you in pursuit of that made you share the link in the first place?

For those saying why are some bothered when we have nothing to hide. Of course, we have nothing to hide beacause, truly, domaining is not illegal. But I hope you do realise now that thanks to someone's quick fingers any domainer(or group of domainers) over there with the capital who already have a vendetta against people like us climbing the ladder can make things quite a little bit more difficult, especially for newbies learning the ropes -- which has been the pride of this thread.

I honestly would not blame other experts if they decide to henceforth hold back some of thier winning strategies that might have benefitted alot of upcomings here, because now they are not so sure that thier direct competitors are not watching and taking notes. There is a big difference between helping your adopted family grow with strategies that work you, and telling those same strategies to your direct competitors. Big difference

Now this thread suddenly has this uncomfortable vibe, like a family meeting being held in your local dialect but with a tiny inch of suspicion that the stranger sitting across the room can hear.

And as for that Rob guy, I never liked him. I can read people from a mile away. There's something sneaky about him and he can't fool me. He's a businessman above everything else, so he better stop with all the showmanship. The insensitivity of the comment he made about Nigerian fraud to the Nigerian guy that works for him says alot about how his brain works. The other comment he then made about Indians being worse shows he is someone who talks from both sides of his mouth and has deregatory tendencies, which he tries to hide, against perceived third-world countries.

Trust me, he says worse about us behind our backs. It is common sense.

Lastly, I apologise to y'all for this long epistle, the thing just dey pain me say we Nigerians and Africans in general trust too much and become jittery the moment in involves a foreigner, forgetting that it is only a few of them that can tolerate us if they have nothing to gain from us.

I have been following this thread for a very long time now. I have seen it help and change lives because it's basically a community where fellow Nigerians support and help eachother grow -- which is very rare.

And if anybody tries to jeopardize that due to lack of foresight or artificial misplaced excitement that will soon wane off when reality starts crashing in, then that person should be scolded with harsh words if need be or ostracized from the community. No time to pamper people whose actions , knowingly or unknowingly, will make things difficult for others.

May God grant Nigerians and we Africans in general the wisdom to be wise and alert and not get easily carried away..... because our continent desperately needs it. Amen.

Happy Sunday.... (goes back to hiding)

golddeejay:
I feel your domain are too targeted for SH...they like creative name with 'broad' usage.

Craigbrown4076:
Honestly speaking, they don't sound brandable to me.
Are these the only ones you think should be reviewed?

Craigbrown4076:
QUICK TIP.

For those of us on SH who have some names that were rejected, you can request a review to get them accepted (Do this for names you really feel should make the cut).

I had a .co that was previously rejected now listed on the marketplace after I requested a review.

Don't just go about requesting reviews upandan, as you have just 5 review slots per month. Use them sensibly on names that you sincerely feel should be on the marketplace.

Happy Domaining!

Thanks. I used Branduche approach before I saw slimjosh43 approach.
I guess the guy is also a domain flipper or the former owner of the domain.
I told him my price (995). He countered with $50 and that I should make my gain from it since I bought the domain name for $12.
I told him his offer is wayless than what I can consider. He then sent me a misspelt variation of the name which he will register if I do not accept the offer.
I told him to go ahead to register the misspelt variation. He then asked me to give him discount on the name.
Gave him a 50% discount by slashing the price from 995 to $500.
He countered it an offer of $75 and that he is giving me 24 hours to accept the offer.
I just replied him and told him am not in a hurry to sell tge name. I also gave him 48 hours to pay the $500 after which I will increase it to the initial price.
All through our chats, he was just mentioning that I registered the domain for $12 and I shouldn't be looking for too much gain

Silence is the best answer,

Thunder blast him

miftaudeen:
Thank you all, i have registered the name before i noticed the error. am thinking of going for refund

Josmila:
This is true. A lot of things work against us here.. Reputation and all.. A Nigerian in Nigeria is perceived to be a scammer, they judge you before they even get to know you. A buyer requested for a call once, made the mistake of calling with my naija number, that was the end, he never responded to any further emails from me. Those who end up buying regardless are the ones who look beyond where you from

Promxy94:
His assertion is True

One
Calling factor I wanted to end an 800box geo domain sale
It cut off because I was asked to call them. They have agreed to my price, but needed further discussions with me.

And undeveloped don't call for you.

Promxy94:
Let him go I just agreed to a hundred bux from him because wanted to use it and get a particular name.....
