Promxy94 you don't have to worry bro. You're not the only one that has happened to recently on nairaland.

Thanks for your concern bro, and I appreciate.

But it's bad.... I detest fraud and I don't like being associated with it.

Bro he needs to be worried oooh, if eventually the guy is successful in his fraudulent act, who do you think will be at the receiving point?

@promxy94 I will advise you to go to currency thread and put a disclaimer.

This nairaland self; that was how someone sent me message via email, begging me for money just after I posted sales report.
We are all struggling and I have my own enormous immediate needs too, not that I have in excess...

Lol, I can relate. I have long deactivated my email I used to open my account here. I know my moniker and my pw off hand. If u can't post whatever you want to ask me on this forum, that's your luck. Promxy94 needs to worry too, go there and disclaim. Despite several warnings not to trade with new person or stranger, they will still go ahead and trade. After that, be claiming scam. Why can't he mention him here and let him reply via his original moniker instead via WhatsApp? Mumu person.

There's nothing wrong in getting domains on trending topics. There are people making money from things like this. People made money from HIV, Ebola, Kobe Bryant etc. So nothing wrong to me. E no means u no feel sorry for patients them

@Tranxo @ideaspro @2sexycom @epiknigeria and other contributors. Let me learn....
What if someone sold a domain name that is business keyword trade marked in another extension, let's say ". io" to another company for $10k ignorantly. Incase of infringement, will the seller liable to refund the money to the buyer or will he be party to such incase legal battle arises? Or its between the buyer if he develops it and the company that owns the "tm". The name is not known to be trade marked until sold. Just wondering....or the money the buyer paid don enter voice mail? I need a broad answers. Thanks.

When you get to that bridge you shall cross it. When you make sales getting your fund in your local bank is as easy as abc. What is so much is, knowing domains that will turn to cash for you.

Thanks bro for sharing your perspective. But intention matters in all actions, and I wouldn't want to "make profit off others illness" that's why I seek the thought of others on this thread, But I thought more domain on the topic will amount to more information sites and consequently more awareness, not that one would want to charge a ridiculous amount on the domain.
But you do have a point though, it could turn to a buying spree of Co***a related domains. Thanks for shedding light.

Question:

Are people here using any paid services in this domain business? I have a feeling that there are important tools not being discussed yet in this thread but people are using them.

What are the paid services/sites you are currently using and how has it been of value to you?

Don't feel

Make research and know If people are using one.

Besides, all the good domains are taken. GoDaddy bought coronavirus.com

Bad investment. Even Godaddy had to forward coronaVirus dot com to the page that addresses the disease on WHO's website without charging a dime. The same name that was initially listed for $240,000+.

Corona virus is not here to stay. Those regging associated names for profit are not wise.
How many people profited from Ebola domains?
When the world is against a common enemy, it isn't business savvy to try profiting from it at the expense of your fellow comrade. You would be shooting yourself in the foot. If everyone starts trying to profit from the current situation, we would be defeated. And, it wouldn't be the virus that beat us. It would be us who pulverized each other.

But that's a little bit on the moral side.

Here's exactly why it's a terrible INVESTMENT:

If one regs a corona domain to sell, whoever is going to buy it will be hoping the virus stays around for a while.

If his wish were to come true, he, the seller and almost everyone else would most likely not be around to visit that domain. So, If the buyer were still alive, the domain would be more or less useless to him. Also, If the seller were still alive, the money would be more or less useless to him, because the world would have become so scanty that "money" is no longer what it is today.

On the other hand, if the buyer's wish doesn't come true, that is the virus is defeated ASAP, everyone would lose interest in the topic and the domain would be redundant. Checkout Ebola dot com. It probably still gets a lil traffic, but all other Ebola related domains are dead. The seller, in this case, would have gotten away with the sale. And this is most likely to be the case.

Now, imagine I were a buyer (end user), and I reasoned like this, do you think I would want to spend a dime in acquiring the domain? Certainly not. So, all these corona domains would just be gathering dust, especially now that the father of them all is being used for free.

For an end user who replied with this after 2nd outbound:

"Yes I could be interested please call me xxxxx"

Has anyone successfully made a sale out of such replies?

Anyone

You're right and I came to that impression from the research that I have made. Would you mind responding to the questions asked?

No, you won't be held liable and you will not refund the money. Domain names transfer from hand to hand. But in law everything is about proof. If, for any reason, you are linked to the case, the onus will rest on proof as to whether you were aware before the sale. But if it can be proofed that you have sufficient knowledge and info that the name would have been trademark, you may be in the web of trademark infringement. For example, if you sell Cola Cola, you should know it should be a trademark.

to each his own bro. I follow this coronavirus news everyday and that shiiit is currently killing people like chicken in IRan BECAUSE of the leader's stupidity and greed for election. Now, both the elites and masses are dying, including health workers... From the report I saw today, IRAN might end up recording the highest casualties

@tranxo, thank you for this report. It is soul lifting to keep pushing. Please how can one submit SH name for the afternic expanded promotion. Thanks

tranxo:
I only get inspired to share my sales report, when any of my sales has some story around it. So I will share this one

Bought on Namepros on November 19, 2019 for $16. Seller said he once submitted it as unregistered name at SH but it was rejected. (I wonder the reason he decided to go ahead and register it anyway )

Submitted to SH same day and it was approved for Premium Listing for $2399 (I think I raised it to above 3k like I always do all my approved PLs)

FFWD to 2020 when SH partnered with Afternic for it's Expanded Promotion. I submitted it (and all my premium listings) on February 2nd for Afternic approval with 2 coins ($2) and listed on Afternic same day. I jacked up the price to $4.5k on SH and set it at $5k at Afternic.

February 19, an email from an Afternic/Godaddy Sales Exec. landed informing that he had an offer he had worked on for my name and buyer offered $3k. I decided to see if I could get the buyer to go higher. The sales guy told me buyer started from $2k, and with his pushing, got to $2.5k, then $3k, and that THEY would look for another domain.

I decided to apply the silent treatment. This lasted for about 15 hours. I can prove stubborn sometimes, but my guts whispered to me that this is DEFINITELY NOT, and SHOULD NOT be one of such times.

I sent him a 4-word reply - (How do we proceed?)

Cutting the long story short, I adjusted the BIN on Afternic to $3k (also on SH cos price on SH MUST always be less or equal to the price on Afternic). Buyer paid same day February 20. I pushed name to Afternic's Epik escrow account immediately. Took them 3/4 days to verify the funds and send to me. $2,374 (less 20% $600 Afternic commission and $26 bank charge) hit my dorm account on Feb. 25.

I informed SH about the sale. Now based on SH agreement, since the name was originally approved for 30% SH comm., I will need to pay SH their own share of 10% ($300). So at the end of the day, my take home is $2,070

I entered GTB today and withdrew the whole cash over the counter.

Domain name is B-O-L-D-L-E-M-O-N in king

Grace brought me this far.

PS:

This is my first Afternic transaction, and it appears they won't release fund to seller, until buyer accepts domain push/transfer. I found this strange 'cos escrow as I understand it means once the escrow agent has both product and payment, there shouldn't be any delay in disbursement.

On NP, I have seen cases where buyer didn't accept push/transfer for weeks and Afternic held on to seller's fund.

Well, seems my buyer acted fast enough. All's well that ends well.

PS2:
If ONLY sales report motivates you in this business, YOU WILL NOT LAST LONG. You can take this to the bank!!!

I did check Squadhelp before asking... I didn't seem to notice anything. I submitted 5 unregistered names (seeking to register them myself) last week, 3 were accepted, (last one was accepted last night). I'm just curious, has SH stopped or closed unregistered names?

emmydsife:
@tranxo, thank you for this report. It is soul lifting to keep pushing. Please how can one submit SH name for the afternic expanded promotion. Thanks

They said the normal cost per submission is 4 coins ($4), but it's currently discounted to 2 coins ($2) per submission.
