How much do public sales actually influence how you price your domains?

Do you actively use reported sales when pricing, or mostly ignore them?

And has that approach worked for you?

Very much... Price for brandables have stooped too low...

They do and they don't.

I know how to price quality.

Maybe liquidity just moved to fewer, stronger names, and everything else gets priced down or ignored

That’s a fair way to put it, and it reflects how most experienced investors actually operate.

Public sales matter as reference points, not as instructions. They help frame the market range, but they don’t replace judgment.

So, public sales are more about staying calibrated than setting price. They inform the edges, but the final number still comes from knowing where real demand actually clears.

I look at sales to avoid being unrealistic — not to decide the number.
