    Question Junk & about to expire names

    I saw many thread selling names at a couple of bucks a piece.

    What is your opinion if you have junk names or about to expire name but you don't want to renew:

    1. Let it expire
    2. Sell it cheap
    3. Offer to give it free
    4. Your option if it's not 1,2 or 3

    Re: Junk & about to expire names

    Everyone registers junk names from time to time... even those that are too good to admit it. I usually give them away if I remember. There are plenty of people that are willing to take any names off of you. There are actually people that use crap names to test there marketing skills and to see how well they can get them to perform in the search engines. There are other things people use them for too. If a few bucks will help you out... selling them can be your other option. Most of the time its not worth the time, you could be making more finding better names rather then wasting your time dealing with petty transactions. Why do you ask Johnn?

    Re: Junk & about to expire names

    I usually let them expire. I would give them free, but I always put them in the back of my mind and forget about them. Will try to remember next time.

    Let expire.

    Too busy to bother selling cheap or arrange to give away.

    Re: Junk & about to expire names

    I left them drop, and since I would not spend reg fee to renew, I reg another one I feel is better some times. That is for less then great names only, like I just left 3 char .net's drop.
