Quickest Sale?

fred · Mar 29, 2006

What is the quickest you've ever made a sale of a UK domain that you caught on the drop, without having had a buyer already lined up?

Mine:

02:41 - Domain Dropped/Caught
11:07 - Added to my domain sales page & Parked on Namedrive
12:40 - Initial Offer Received (via email address listed on domain sales page)
13:47 - Sale Agreed

Time from drop to sale agreed: 11 hours 6 minutes
Time from Listing for sale to sale agreed: 2 hours 40 minutes

I think my record on DNF was somewhere around 7 mins from Registration complete to sale.

Not talking big sales $50 -> $300 sales, but I was making them daily at one point.

Me tend not to sell so quick

If I list domain for sale and receive bid just after that, I don't sell.
Usually it means buyer is re-seller who was watching (trying to catch) and now offers me low price, offering a quick turn-around. Many comment that it's a great ROI in such a short time hinting only idiot won't sell.. Oh, get lost =)

I haven't seen such quick bids raise to at least close to my desired price.

I'll give you £100 for Kavos.co.uk - That's £95 profit in a day, can't be bad
