Hello from a new member!

Hello from a new member!

Well, hello from quite an old member actually, I registered a couple of years ago or more but I have just never got around to posting here before.

I have been buying and selling odd domain names since 1997.

My best name buys are/were:

Food.co.uk
Drink.co.uk
Dating.co.uk
Rent.co.uk
Temp.co.uk
Carpentry.co.uk
Decorating.co.uk

And my worst name? Hmmm, quite a list to choose from, but my worst purchase was probably a domain not entirely unconnected with a very well known TV shopping channel. They promptly decided to sue my a** to get it back. Ah, the good old days!

I don't know if it has been mentioned anywhere on this forum yet but there is an auction of premium UK domain names being held this September by Domain Focus in conjunction with Sedo.com, so if you have any really good names squirelled away the auction might be a good opportunity to sell some of them on. I hope that some of the above names will be making an appearance at the auction.

More details at

http://www.sedo.com/links/showhtml.p...d=&language=us

Good luck to you all.

Welcome. You should check out the wanted forum. There's at least one domainer looking for one worders.

Some great domains you've got there

Thanks

Thanks for your kind comments.

We are always willing to talk about joint development projects on a profit share basis for our domain names, so if you have existing high quality websites that relate to any of our names and you might be interested in a lease/partnership deal do get in touch.

We are specifically interested in finding high quality content for:

Aupair.co.uk
Carpentry.co.uk
Decorating.co.uk
Temp.co.uk
Cardealers.co.uk

Please, if you do contact us don't be upset if we are choosy and say "no thanks". We are looking for high quality content that we can see already in place, not grand plans (we have plenty of those here already... ).

Regards,

Accommodation(.com)

Hi Lawrence,

Good to see you on here. We purchased a domain from you a couple of years ago. Wishing you well with the development/sale of your stunning list of domains.

Kind regards,
