Another newbie here.

start no finish · 26-07-2011, 07:18:38 PM

Good evening all, well a little bit about me, i've been buying domains for at least 3 years , why ? , I'm not sure yet. I must have wasted a small fortune. I do have what i believe to be a few reasonable ones. I did buy a dropped domain 6 months ago and sell it within a few weeks for �2500 so i think i've got by money back from over the years.

I've been on a bit of a spree and purchased plenty of domain with links , only problem now is what do i do with them.

As my user name suggest i'm great at starting things but can never finish.

Hopefully you girls and guys will help me with that.

If there is someone out there who is an expert at catching domains i'm aware of a very valuable .co.uk thats dropping very soon.

Nice intro - calling it the way it is for you.

Great you got the early sale. Hope that didn't get your head spinning too fast though.

Ps Any valuable drop will be on lots of radars

Hi Bailey

The drop wont be on any radars as yet as i've come across it by total accident.

Im 99.99% convinced that no-one at this stage knows, Although as it gets closer people will be seeing it.

I dont know if there is any advantage being the front runner !!!!

Sorry but I have to make a crack here....

And I'm two years ahead on everyones elses radar.
Just state a rough period ahead your looking at - anything more than a week or two is equivalent to pissing in the wind

ok , yes i'm a little more ahead , but its the background of why its coming available thats making me like this.

If it's suspended then people will have noticed, most likely. For example, I was running lists for names that could/would/should drop mid September a week ago, and a number of those were already booked here there and everywhere (and I went right up to the first "suspended" day)

aZooZa · 26-07-2011, 10:21:27 PM

Yes, if the domain is worth anything it will be being monitored.

wb · 27-07-2011, 12:00:26 AM

As others have said, if it's any good it will already be on the radar of others. Look to see if it's already booked in with the public catchers and that may give you an idea.
