Thanks to those who participated.

I'll be contacting the highest bidders later this month.

George, do the websites come with any domains that have one, or is it domains only?

Cheers, Chris

Very few have websites, but for those that do am happy to include the content that i have written or had written for me if required (you will no doubt want to redo the code!).

For example, divorces.co.uk does have some content that might be useful to a buyer

Do the BINs include the 50% off?

Yes the BINs include the 50% off, but for any name that doesn't sell at BIN, I'll be looking to do deals with highest bidders somewhere between the highest bid and BIN.

Google doc updated.

Where will those deals sit in comparison to the current BIN? To be honest, I'm put off by what I perceive to be high BINs on some of the names. If that results in a 'winning' £100 bid on a name you have priced at say £4000, do you anticipate a big enough reduction on your part (with some leeway on the buyers part as well) so that a deal can be done?

I agree. Some of the bins are completely unrealistic. Which makes me think any reserve prices are going to be the same.

I really hope this isn't going to be the way people try and shift domains now. Franks' was interesting... it was the first time anyone tried it and there was some really good domains in there which further added to the interest.

Does anyone realistically see someone sitting online for 5 hours as the auction continually extends, trying to buy knockerbockerglory.co.uk or pieeyed.co.uk ? With a cheap bin they're domains that someone might have snapped up for whatever reason... but there is no way someone is going to waste half a working day just to be in with a chance of acquiring it.

Plus it seems the way the auction is set up, its going to run for hours and hours past closing time. You've got a £600 bid on a £30,000 bin domain. So if thats winning, someone else bids £700 and every single auction extends out... whats the point? The bids aren't anywhere near the reserves and neither of the people contesting it have any chance of acquiring it at the current levels. If you want to extend out every single auction with a new bid then stop wasting everyones time. Don't allow stupid bids.... start them all off at whatever your reserve is.

If you're put off, don't bid. ;)
