Snap has quite a great rap going - I backorder many domains there as they almost always get what your after. However, often times the few big players tend to spend whatever it takes to get a domain name. Well over my head. Sometimes names that would get maybe 5-6k on the market, shoot up to 10-15k at Snap. I almost wish I could auction my names off at Snap like they were drops. (This seems to be the direction they are going)
