Well, that registry is selling the domains for 2 cents, for less than the cost of the ICANN fees and the operational overhead -- you cannot make up a net loss on the volume. So, why are they flooding that namespace? Doesn't make sense then.
You buy junk? I don't want to take and hour to make $50 LOL after the loss on the registration fees --recapture the domain sales for tax purposes and pay the long term capital gains taxes on $50 -- better to write it off ... It's different if the sale were for $1,000s -- that is one why domain prices are so ridiculously high. <the original topic. |
If its junk, why did you buy it? It takes you an hour to push a domain? Anyways, whatever you think is best for you. There are a lot of new gtlds you can get for 1-2 dollars. They want to inflate the numbers so they can show "demand" to their investors. Demand is lower than expected for new gtlds at this point and a lot of companies are disappointed. Donuts, the biggest new gtld holder *was* posting renewal rates stating they would stay above 70%. When they dropped below 60% they stopped posting the rates..
