Chinese are back !

**britishbulldog** · 11-17-2009, 12:35 PM

Well i dunno if they ever went away but i have noticed this same chinese corp bidding across the board fro domains,there seems to be no stopping them,no matter what bid i put in they go higher,i have already took them upto over $2k for one domain from less than $500.

Just hope they don't last around to long but they seem to have deep pockets :-0

**caffea** · 11-17-2009, 12:54 PM

what domain?

**James Jean** · 11-17-2009, 01:03 PM

Halvarez alter ego.... Sum Tin Wong perhaps

I saw many of my fellow Chinese domainers complain why the other party don't give up no matter how high the bid is. LOL, just FYI, mate.

Are you referring to Namejet/canada?

**britishbulldog** · 11-19-2009, 04:19 PM

This guy here: he bids under the name "thelong"

He is just one of them !

@britishbulldog

Hi, mate, would you edit your post and remove his address info?

D X is one of my domainer friends. He's an experienced and reputable domain investor.

If he redirects all his domain traffic to one site, the site can be easily pushed to Alexa top 10k

overpaying just to beat out bidders is never a good strategy depsite whatever sums of money you may have.

Apparently, you only want to buy domains cheap.

Whatever they are willing to pay at that moment is its market value.

It sounds like what I use to say in 2003 about Frank Schilling and Mike Mann.

That's funny.

Market value to them but nobody else=overpaying in my book,Now that's funny !

Should of bought gold in 2003 instead you would of been alot richer than buying domains,but if we all could predict the future we all would be billionaires.

Nope, thats not how it works. "market value" is such a subjective thing in domaining, who really knows but you can buy a domain for a million dollars...that definitely doesn't mean you'll be able to sell it for anywhere near that amount.

Well...You're part of the 'Market', of course.....The moment you pay that million dollars for that domain, you made the market for it - created the market value for it - on that day.

If you can't find a buyer at that price, later, then, the 'Market' - later - is valuing it at less (or, with no offers, or buyers, at all - then, valuing it at zero value - until there are offers).

So, Markets do speak.....Its not fair, or unfair.....Its competition.

And, its just we can't predict what they'll do in the future.....They go up - and down.

There are quite a few big domainers in china with really deep pockets. I don't think they are overpaying, they might simply see a different value in certain domains.
