cctld The biggest NNN.ca drop in TBR history

[theinvestor]

Any comments ?

Will they all be picked up ?

 

[hugegrowth]

Next week? Haven't even looked yet. But if I get what you're saying they will all get picked up.

 

[theinvestor]

245 of them are dropping so far...

 

[hugegrowth]

wow, looks like close to 250 NNN.ca, I would have liked to get 314.ca but it's not there.

 

[Wzhxvy]

Does anyone know why they all dropped ?

 

[hugegrowth]

My guess is they don't cover reg fee and owner is dropping dead weight from the portfolio.

Or, they didn't get the renewal emails.

You'd think they could have tried selling them here before dropping them...

Does anyone know why they all dropped ?

Probably low income and low traffic because the .ca resale market is so small as a result of the rules being very difficult for non-Canadians to buy them, combined with Canada itself being a comparativey low population.

I have seen lots of good keyword .ca's for sale here which I would have tried to buy but didn't make offers due to not being in Canada.

Yeah I see your point guys...I wonder if anyone can find out when those NNNs were registered ? Whoever dropped them could have sold them for at least $20-$50 each I would guess.

 

[theinvestor]

quality is better than quantity

Think about this.... if you pay $20 each for them.... x 300 = $6000

Now...let's add registrant transfer of $10 each... $9000 total

It gets expensive quick....how long before people on the forum will pay $100 each for a NNN.ca ? Most NNN.com's are parked.

I would have snapped up a choice few if they were offered here at $20. I make the most of my nnn's though... parking them is pretty much useless.

 

[hugegrowth]

they are like collector items, good to have a few. I'm sure when they all got bought out a few years ago many of us wished we'd taken a few more.

I got a few. Looks like all 245 of them got picked up. The few I check seem to all have been owned by the same person and registered in 2006.

Hey Whitebark, which nnn's do you have developed?

 

[theinvestor]

Yes...i checked as well...all 245 were picked up. I picked up almost half of them (118)

Yes all are gone, but looks like the Registrar who got the lion share, did not have enough funds at the bank at the time of TBR. But nothing will be canceled.

Now all of them are active...

Oh, that's what the list means, I always wondered why some domains were still listed after the TBR was over.

Looks like Burmac and MyID both had issues.

 

[theinvestor]

I picked them all up from MYID. I am happy about the purchase.

More likely that the customer has yet to pay Burmac, and that would be why the list is still there.

 

[Dorkside]

I missed out on this. I definitely would've liked to pick a few up.
