Hi All,
I am seeing some truly depressing price valuations given on this board, I know it is only a bit of specualtive fun [sic], but have we really come down to the point where $50 for a one word generic gTLD's is an ok price?
I beleieve the world economy and dn prices are directly linked (not a new idea I know), whereby if the world economy is on the up, business is confident, trade increases and dn's become valuable once again.
It is like buying and selling shares, buy at the bottom and sell at the top. I think to sell now is to sell at the bottom and let someone make a killing on your name at a later date. Therefore if you do own a decent dn, then hang onto it. By all means put it up for valuation for curiosity sake, but if someone says it is only worth peanuts and offers to buy it from you, then take a moment to think why do they want it, if it is only worth peanuts?
If I want to know how much my car is worth, I would not expect to get a correct market valuation from a dealer who is trying to make money on the transaction, and like wise I would not expect to get a correct market valuation from a dn dealer on a dn I own.
I am not saying most valuations on dnforum are incorrect, a bad name is a bad name, but I also believe a lot of dn dealers use this site and so valuations can sometimes be skewed against the owner in the hope of a profitable deal.
Just my two pence worth - I am sure I will be flamed to death for saying it, but giving $50 valuations means we might as well all forget about dn's, or, some people are not giving meaningful valuations for other reasons.
