I have a friend that owns 400+ community / forum domains and I told him I would ask you guys, the domain pros, for insight in to the possible value. I will show a segment of some of the domains to give you an idea of what they are. Again, there are between 400-450 domains in all. In a bulk deal like this is it reasonable to get $5 a domain, $10 per domain, or is that really low?

Hey Lee.
Just ran across this. I have and buy a lot of community names.
Looking at the list you have posted I think double reg fee would probably be reasonable.

If I were to buy a bulk lot I'd want to see the entire list but from what is posted I'd probably keep a few and drop a large amount.

The problem with community names is that they aren't all too liquid so if you're looking to sell you're better off being patient and waiting for a serious end user.

He'd probably be better off taking more time and selling them individually.

I Agree with BGray. A lot of forums don't even have relevant domain names (many that I come across). A little promotion here and there, and maybe have someone cherry pick his premium domains out into a separate list and then sell them individually to forums that match their relevant content (google the blog domain as a phrase in quotes and see what comes up, then contact the forum owner).

The rest, if just on the fringes, either hang on and wait it out, let em drop, or find someone who will give you double registration or even single registration price.

Oh, for sure he should try to dump a lot of them off on Afternic's (Buydomains now) Bazaar. Small membership fee, buy up about $200 in bazaar bucks, and post them for sell in their reverse auction, start them at $39 each and have the end price $3

hope this helps
