Ebay for domains?

Most of those names wouldn't attract bids anywhere tbh.

I have paid a four figure sum for a name that I bought on eBay.

I've tried this a couple of times with no interest - just wondering if anyone else has done better.

I tried it with 3 generic domains and even featured one of them, I thought generics amonst all this cr*p must get bids as it would be the only decent domain on the page but no I was wrong, no interest, I would leave it alone mate.

I'd be careful doing this, I was listing PC motherboard manuals in the PC motherboard section and some saddo reported me and now my compliance rating is very low, any more reports and my fee discounts go.

I did phone eBay to argue that they actually come with motherboards when new but they just weren't interested.

Ok, noted - thanks!

Seems like ebay is a no go for selling.

I have missed a few great names on ebay over the years (I think videos.co.uk went for 5k or thereabouts) and I've bought a couple of good'uns too. But it's basically down to luck whether you happen to notice the ultra rare decent-but-bargain names in the ocean of dross...
