NameJet Holding No Reserve .TV Auction

Hey Elliott,

I havent heard of this til just now…Thanx for the info!

Hmmm, Safari was supposed to have just dropped, but I guess the owner just renewed it…

There are some nice Video-Centric domains in this list.

I’ve got my eye on a few here now.

BTW,
Check out my Dot TV auction if you get a chance. 🙂

Thx,
Vito

Except for the LLL.TVs, I think I’ve got some better ones than these.

I have a very small minority stake in .TV and my domains are better than these.

That said, .TV is getting hot.

@ Mike

Hot in what way? I haven’t seen any/many notable .TV sales recently. Whay am I missing?

Yawn.

Nothing in this auction worth talking about

Min bid is $69 not $1.

Not many great domains in the mix there.

Brad

They are selling for big dollars but it is all just hush-hush as they keep acquiring.

Wish I could say more. 🙂

LLL are considered super premium.

@ Robert

LLL.com might be considered “super premium”. Every other extension not so much.

Low quality LLL in virtually every extensions outside the Big 3 (COM/NET/ORG) are normally worthless.

Of the domains on the list I like Safari.TV and MLM.TV the most.

Brad

.TV sales are somewhat random. One can obtain better keyword quality at a lower price in .TV but buyers have .COM so ingrained into their psyche that even great keyword .TV domains often are not considered as alternatives to pricey .COMs.

That said since the fall I have closed several ~$1k or greater .TV sales none of which appeared on DNJ.

Imo most of these aren’t particularly great. The best ones are possibly safari and wacky.

There is some UDRP fodder here too, most notably E4 .

Its true that .tv seems to be getting hot, I personally know of $1k+ deals happening almost daily under the radar.
I own over a dozen ‘premium’ LLL .tv’s so I’ll be watching this auction with interest.

The .tv market seems to be significantly weaker than the landrush period last year. It is back to occasional sales and uninspiring prices. I would be expect much from this auction.

I like .tv’s and will be activly bidding on 5 of the names listed. i have found small business’s and non domainer end ussers seem a little curious lately about non .coms in particular the .tv and .me extensions. I recently purchased newcar.tv and newcars.tv and feel fortunate to have accuired them. I even hand registered ElectionDay.tv and ElectionResults.tv this yr and have been approached by more than one media group asking for a price.

Personally I’m glad that the domain community in general still mostly ignores .tv

Have a great day
Phil

.TV has been extremely quiet for me – no end user sales since February 09.

I have a rather good portfolio of names…..with zero action.

———————————————–

There is a steady stream of $x,xxx+ .tv sales that hardly get seen by most domainers since few domainers blogs talk of .tv ext.

Here is some from last week or two:
Arabia.tv sold for 8000 EUR ($11,500 approx) at Sedo
Rec.tv $5,000
IBet.tv $1,300
Valencia.tv 5000 euros
MyCam.tv $1,250!
Romance.tv at $7,000!
Adventure $6,000
1p.tv $5,000

Many more sales but theres a few to give you some insight into .tv’s sales.

My vie won .tv is that it’s difficult to flip domains regularly in forums/blog in domainer to domainer deals unlike some other more liquid ext’s But there is very good ROI on buying decent .tv’s & waiting on / finding buyers.

More of a longterm investment than buy to flip but theres some seriously good ROI’s being made by .tv owners who invested in good domains when they could be bought at low prices unlike now.

Yes there are lot’s of big sales in .tv. I just sold one for myself, for a 4000% ROI. It’s a NDA though. Have 4-5 offers pending as well. Many people have told me I own the #1 .tv portfolio in the world as well.

“There is a steady stream of $x,xxx+ .tv sales that hardly get seen by most domainers since few domainers blogs talk of .tv ext.”

/////////////////

I wouldn’t call it a steady stream, dnjournal reports 1-2 .tv sales a week and that level is no different to 2 years ago, it is comparable to .info, .biz, .cc etc. In regard to the people talking about NDA’s that is true of every extension.

Most of the .tv domains we’ve purchased in the past 2 years have never been publicly reported.

I’m thrilled that the .com gang disses .tv. I used to be a .com groupie…then saw the light about 2 years ago.
