Congrats on your sale, Did you do any outbound on this before the inbound offer came in. Although I did outbounding for this domain but this sale was not connected to it. I forgot to set my DNS to undeveloped so the domain was parked with NetworkSolutions. I got a price enquiry email from Namesilo Marketplace. The buyer asked how much I am asking for the domain. I still don't know how this happened. I contacted the buyer through the email address namesilo marketplace provided me and I quoted $2,500 Two days later, they replied they will buy it for the price. So, I Closed the deal through undeveloped. 6 Likes |

ollybode: Appraisal are not scam, you don't pay more attention to their estimated value. Like estibot recognised keywords popularity and short character, is never friendly to brandable. Godaddy pay more attention to historical and similar sales. This tools sometimes give a glimpse of hope on the value of domain but one should not rely totally on them.
Dommain's worth is what the buyer/ end-users pay to get it and this is subjective. Main while I thank God for his mercy. Two sales just rolled in now:
incalandscape.com Sales venue: undeveloped Purchase price:$6.99 Bin:$250 Sold:$200 Hold time:24hrs Outbound
Annapolisarchitects.com Sales venue: undeveloped Purchase price: $1 netsol Sold: $399 bin Hold time : 3weeks Outbound

tranxo: Testimony time. Alert just entered. Jesus thank you!
3 word USA geo domain (real estate industry)
Bought at Netsol for $1 on Dec. 23 2018 and set BIN $2,300 on Undeveloped
Outbounded on 26th night to more than 20 end users (Facebook and direct email)
Woke up around 3am on Dec. 27th to see an offer of $1,500
I immediately countered $2,000
Buyer countered $1,500 again and said (Unfortunately that's as high as I can go. Thank you for the consideration.)
I come think am. Sleep no gree come again. I say weda to use delay tactics. My church mind tell me say I dey greedy. $1500!!!
I accept fasssssttttt!!!Dec 27th
The waiting game don start be that.
I took the liberty to search the buyer on Facebook. Saw her and noticed she is a very big realtor in that particular real estate subniche I targeted. (Meanwhile name was gotten from Expireddomains)
I added her as a friend and introduced myself. (Reason for this was to get her to know I am real ..... probably worked)
She was on vacation so communication was hell. But I kept communicating. Answering her many questions about her being skeptical about Undeveloped as a trustworthy company, transfer process, how she will get the domain etc.
This went on till Dec 31st when the buyer sent me a mail from Undeveloped that almost gave me heart attack LOL.
Undeveloped in their payment reminder to her spelt the domain name (the name of the city) wrongly TWICE in the same mail. Chai.
She said her trust don vanish that professionals cannot make such a mistake. Wahala. My brain went into overdrive.
I had to allay her fears by letting her understand that Undeveloped being a European country may sometimes get foreign names wrong. I agreed with her that it was unprofessional and that I will contact Undeveloped to correct the mistake.
She was happy.
I contacted Undeveloped and apologies were poured out with promises to rectify the issue.
I purposely didn't bombard buyer with mails so that she will not feel too pressured and back off, but I remember asking her when she intended to pay, cos with the landing page showing "Domain Sold", I may lose other prospects.
She totally understood my concerns and said she was on vacation and cannot do much until she gets back home. That if I want to back off from the deal she will understand...WHAAAATTT!!! Back off wetin!!! God forbid. I told her I will wait ooo.
Undeveloped sent second payment reminder to her on Jan 3.
Buyer assumed that she will pay extra VAT and started developing cold feet.
Those current with Namepros will remember the thread where Undeveloped explained thoroughly their VAT methods.
I smiled and explained the much I can to her that since she is from outside Europe, she won't have to pay any VAT. I also told her that I will tell Undeveloped to explain this to her. Undeveloped did and everyone was happy. LOL
Friday Jan 4th buyer paid. Praise God!
Undeveloped contacted me for domain transfer. Which I completed later in the day. But it was until Monday 7th that Undeveloped acknowledged it (they don't communicated weekends from my experience).
However, it was only on last Wednesday Jan. 9th that they sent the money ($1,365) to my dom account. They said ordinarily they ought to have sent it out within 1 business day from the time buyer paid, but because it was my first transaction, they had to make sure of certain things. They also rejected my request for Bitcoin payout because of the same reason. I can however request for Bitcoin payout from my second transaction.
Wire transfer takes 3-5 business days to hit your account.
Today is the 3rd day. Alert received around 1pm.
I had to write this long epistle not just our of joy, but to chronicle what it looks like dealing with Undeveloped.
Some sales may go smoother than mine, but this goes to show that if I never thought of searching this buyer on Facebook, probability of losing this sale would be high.
I registered 12 names with the $1 promo. Praying and hoping few more in same real estate subniche (sorry - won't reveal it for now) will sell.
As a newbie, and still learning. Try and target cities with population above 100,000
If you are searching your keyword on Google for endusers, if you see adverts appearing at the top of the serach engine results, that's a good sign that people want that keyword. So an enduser may like to have an EMD as his/her domain name.
Another tip. If you are setting your filters on Expireddomains, under Additional tab, at the bottom, tick the box that says Facebook Taken
It will show you domains that have Facebook Pages with the same names. For instance, if it lists lagosvetservices .com, it means you MAY see a Facebook Page with the handle @lagosvetservices
It doesn't always work but when it does, it is a plus. Just check if the FB Page is active. If the business has a website. Even if it has a website that goes by another/similar name, the business MAY want to own a name that matches their FB Page.
$1 promo give us a lot of room to lower our risks.
Meanwhile my alert says $1,345 instead of $1,365. I guess $20 has gone towards unexplained bank charges. Different story with different companies. When I sold some names on Namejet last year, I got the exact amount in my dom account.
Nothing spoil. To God be the Glory. More sales to us all!
PS: any typo? Pardon. Too happy to proofread. LOL.

It came through private mail! The offer was via private mail. So, it's better you go set the "Buy it now" price at undeveloped to your agreed price and send him the purchase link |

Did the offer, come in via undeveloped or did the buyer reply your private mail. I can see via email in his post. But still need to know if it was a reply to his outbound email or an offer email notification from undeveloped. Very important |

zanebaddo: baba please let me get this straight, netsol allows one to buy 5 domains with promo link per account.. how do people register so many names, is it by creating more accounts or with what you just said above?

otoboson: Funny thing happened yesterday, I registered a name on Netsol, listed for $599 (undeveloped) and did outbound (facebook) immediately, I got two interested buyers, the first guy said he was interested, he dropped his email and I followed up. In less than 1 hour the other guy made an offer of $399 and I didn't counter it (I could have gotten more but I have learnt not to be greedy or attached to any domain), DOMAIN SOLD. Then 30 minutes later the other guy asked me why the domain was $599 bla bla bla, I told him that it has already been sold and I can't do anything about it, like 6hours later his business partner contacted me about the domain and asked if similar names are available, I asked him if he would be interested in buying the plural and he said yes. I don buy and put up the plural for $499, I know say before today go end, this one sef go sell.
Why did I tell this story? A GOOD DOMAIN AND A LITTLE MARKETING SKILLS ARE ALL YOU NEED TO SELL YOUR DOMAIN! If your question is HOW DO I GET A GOOD DOMAIN, my answer would be READ THIS THREAD FROM PAGE 1. Congratulations bro. You used your normal Nigeria Facebook account? If yes, it goes to show that when your domain is highly needed, your location can't stop sales. |
