    .uk .UK Announced

    Evidently I wished that first post to be deleted. Domain message boards largely feature only one side of the story, that of the domainer. I occasionally feel like giving the side of the buyer, and prefer to do so anonymously, though it hardly matters as I'm largely out of the industry anyway.

    Landrush phase for .uk short domains now open

    I'm particularly disappointed that a .me.uk should fall into enemy hands

    Landrush phase for .uk short domains now open

    that speculator will sell if you make a fair bid, and may not even bother with a counter-offer. My gripe is not with the likes of you, it's with sellers who ask $10k for domains they wouldn't pay more than $100 for.

    Landrush phase for .uk short domains now open

    I was an early customer. I have been critical of domain speculation, so anonymity may have been better (I could have tried harder to achieve this). My views could have prejudiced a project nearly attempted. I bought domains speculatively ages ago but asking prices are relatively low, and I'm...

    Indeed I was caught a little by surprise But of course the speculator intends to profit and overall more money is likely to leave than arrived, without any value having been added in the meantime.

    Landrush phase for .uk short domains now open

    No I don’t… ‘outrage’ was an exaggeration, it’s not really a big deal, but my objection is that money is leaving these shores for no good reason. Occasionally foreigners who buy up British assets do at least make some positive contribution eg. Upgrade machinery or supply new jobs (though the...

    This is an outrage. So not only are foreigners allowed to scoop up these domains, but some have the advantage of not having to pay VAT??

    Landrush phase for .uk short domains now open

    It's a pity the application fee weren't set a bit higher and domains withheld as long as necessary to find a proper buyer. Doubtless the .me.uk's will now be marked up by a factor of 50 or 100 and mostly never see the light of day.

    Dispelling The Myth of the Domain Name “Queue of One”

    Yes the problem is that many domainers do not sell at market value. If no offer above £500 has been received in years, then my offer of £1000 should be good enough. But domain seller has a monopoly and can exploit eg. that domain may match my business name, or time I’ve invested into...

    Cost of replacement feels important to me. If a domain can be replaced by one of similar quality for say £100, how can a much higher price can be justified. Domain owners are able to take advantage of the monopoly position they hold over each domain name in a way that is almost unique...
