edogu:

Please can you explain further on the bolded words?

my personal opinion, same applies to P2P transactions

BDC moves lots of cash, you never can tell which of them is on a watchlist. transacting with anyone on a watchlist also means you might become a person of interest too. it may happen or may never happen.

Some persons have had issues with law enforcement due to P2P transactions. Stolen funds being used to purchase USDT or naira. you know its time & finance consuming to get yourself out of police issues in Nigeria even when you are a victim or completely innocent.

Thanks to Meffy, you cant do without P2P

1 Those responses you got, some of us hope & pray for any response. do you know how many outbound goes unanswered.

sometimes, a response albeit negative is an encouraging thing

2 Your frustration is a good thing, Dont give up, keep pressing for knowledge you will see your breakthrough

what you need to do is to evaluate all you think you have learnt. you need to learn more and unlearn some things.

Before I offer more insight, my question to you is[i][/i]

a. If given the funds today, will you register your expired names
If Yes, give reasons

If No, give reasons and tell us the kind of names you will register

b. Do you know the difference between Geo names and Emd & brandables

3 Do you have the knack, strength, passion for outbounding?

Personally I dont, its time consuming. I failed at Geo domains, hence why I focused on brandables.

I also took Iyke class twice. I still do outbound for EMD's, get worn out sometimes

we all have our stories, I have some of my rants on namepros.

AkProsper:

Hello 2 question:
1. Hiw does the SH wholesale market works
2. Which bank dorm account would you recommend (and which type). I learnt some have minimum balance that must be left there.

Thanks.

1. SH Marketplace
Its a backend marketplace available on Squadhelp only to domain sellers who are registered on the platform. you can list your domains there at wholesale price. For SH domain owned names you cant list the name more than $50 while for your own names, there is no limit.

while the names are listed on the wholesale market place, they remain listed on the premuim marketplace. if your own names sells on the wholesale market, there is a transfer center where you get to converse with the buyer for either push or transfer option. when the buyer receives the domain, he will notify SH who will then release payment to you.

2. I use GT dorm account. there is no minimum balance required. I am not recommending this neither do i know any other type of dorm account.

I dont like using dorm because of the hassle of going to the bank, then there is the issue of the bank not having FX at that point(or not wanting to release) then going over to BDC to change it.

I have been denied withdrawal on the grounds that they didnt have FX, pleaded with them to enquire which branch had so i could go there

I have also been restricted from withdrawal because it was an inflow, i was told one could only withdraw what was deposited across the counter

there is also another option, I dont like it for security reasons, transferring to BDC agent, who will then credit your Naira acc at parallel market rate

I sold off some domain on Squadhelp via wholesale market. Exchanger quote N600 has rate.

I decided to convert from $ payoneer to £ payoneer in order to send to my £ grey acc.

This i did but when the money finally landed in my naija acc, the value was slightly less if I had used the exchanger rate.

The payoneer conversion fee + grey charges made it so.

I didn't want the hassle of sending to my dorm & visiting aboki

Finally after 22Working days, the money has been sent to Dan. Thanks to all those who showed concern.

Lesson learnt

Hello guys
I tried transferring from my Payoneer to my Eur grey virtual account it is almost 24hrs and it still has not been reflected in my grey account. Though this 8s my first withdrawal from Payoneer

Was it EUR payoneer to grey or payineer USD to grey

Heyzee5:

Wow! So sorry to hear this! Did you ask DAN how long it takes for funds to be rejected? What timeframe did they give you? This is running into the 3rd week now if I am right.

They couldn't give a timeframe, they kept saying it takes time. I asked them to track the status of the transaction, if its pending or what.

No response on that. I also reached out to laszlo on namepros, same position.

Heyzee5:

Has this issue been resolved for you?

Thanks for asking. Dan insist there is nothing they can do other than wait for the funds to be rejected.

Grey maintains that their gateway is blocked to such tx & Dan should ask for recall.

FreshPresh92:
BOSSES IN THE HOUSE
SEE ME SEE WAHALA FOR END USER HAND O

I outbounded to this enduser and he replied saying he thinks it's a scam and so on and that he want's a physical interview with me.
And I respond with a nice reply stating how the domain is listed on Dan and that they offer escrow service and how they work and all that. Then this man responds with the messages below.

I mentioned the phone call option because I have closed a lot of deals with that but this nigga no gree o.

ABEG HOW I WAN TAKE HANDLE THIS ONE NOW

When dealing with Americans, refer them to Godaddy.

I don't think you can salvage this deal.

Next time, let them know should they choose to buy the name, they will be dealing with the marketplace who will act as escrow.

WebWriter:
Hello bosses,
Please I made a mistake of listing a domain on Dan, due to typo error.
And now someone has paid for it because it's buy now option.
What should I do now please

Let's see the typo name that got sold & how much was it listed.

ClixMaster:
I just received an email of a sold domain I used to have but I allowed it expire. My head is spinning now . What do I do?

What's the current status of the domain? How did the name get sold on Afternic? I thought expired names are delisted(pending review)

When I search for my expired names on Afternic, it doesn't come up. A search on godaddy will tell you that the name has been taken.

I am really curious

golamike:
Please house, does anyone know why a name will drop twice in a single year? Was checking the history of a domain and saw it dropped twice in a particular year. How possible is that? I thought a name can only drop once in a year since an active name can only expire the following year if not renewed.

Maybe the name got deleted, then got registered by someone else

Greenscientist:
Please, why will a company that have a website still buy a domain name?

Just curious.

The owner of nairalandfornigerians.com or nairalandforum.com

Will most likely buy Nairaland.com if the name is pitched to him?

To answer your question, for upgrade to a shorter name or a name that matches their business name.

SALES REPORT
BIN: $349
SP: $299
CP: <$10
SV: DAN
HT: 30 days
Gotten from ED and leads from let's extract
More sales to us.

congrats. You registered this name as a calculated risk or you didnt know about the word "realtor" being trademarked?

HIScraziness:


And some of them are just curious. Best thing is just to let them know u are accepting offers, works for me alot.

This man yesterday told me his offer was $250, told him to pay $300 and he ghosted. I imported lead for $250 1 hour later and he paid. And there was one I told this same thing two days ago and she went ahead to click BIN at $450. But it's still safe either ways.

In importing lead, what do you put as phone number when you don't have it?

HIScraziness:


lol abeg I quoted $1k+ to an enduser last year, he came back to tell me he only had $200 and he bought the name. Even people you quote $100 to will still ghost. It all boils down to how bad they want your name. Americans that'll make an offer of $100 on a name listed for like $5k

You are correct on the bolded but once they suspect fraud. That deal is off the table.

Knowing its Nigeria can be a deal killer.

I think both would have ran for their life if you had quoted 1500 or 2500.

There was a name I sold for $50 on epik during covid, it was sold to a comedian. It was his name. The guy told me economy was bad & that was what he could offer. I think my BIN was 250.

A southafrican domainer told me then to quote 3k or so. Do you think the guy would have bothered to counter 3k offer with 50?

He won't even respond to "we are open to offers"

Rankett:


I've bought only one domain from closeout. Sent an email to the owner of the singular and hyphenated version. The man said "Yes what is your offer?"

I replied: "My asking price is $2500". Baba don japa since. Did like 2 follow ups after that but didn't get a reply. Last Follow up was April 30.

Not planning to follow up further because I don't want to look desperate. Planning to renew and wait till he reaches out back to me.

Some notes: He might have checked whois and might have seen my father's land. Maybe that's why, maybe not. (GoDaddy).

Domain was pointed to Dan before but now currently pointed to GoDaddy.

I had a similar experience, she was from australia

I quoted 1800. she went silent & never responded to any of my mails again.

Its possible the price was too high for them and they felt, they couldnt negotiate

same way you go to the market and hear some prices, you go jejely comot because you feel they might be offended by your counter offer.

Mrblaze06:


What has been your experience with Closeout Domains?


please about the delisting of name on squadhelp,will the listing be remove immediately or you have to give them a 7 day notice as said in their T&C?

After 7days. do note that there is a percentage of names you will remove that will affect your standing

I started Domaining in 2019. Since then, I have bought 4 closeout domains.

Out of the 4, 2 has sold.

Air
charter
usa-$1600(bought for $14, sold less than a year)

xxxx- $350, money yet to be recieved
Renewal + acquisition $59
HT:3years
Brandable/EMD

Background info on the 2nd name. Listed on Squadhelp. I noticed one day(2021) that the .io had just been registered and it was developed and fully functioning. Did all I could to get the email of the CEO, I couldnt.

I needed to raise funds so I delisted the name from SH. listed it for $700. Got an offer from the CEO for $300. Countered $450. He countered $350. I accepted cos I needed the funds and didnt want to loose the sale. lost some sales during negotiation.


I also figured that they must have seen the name on SH before opting to register the .io(meaning the price on SH was beyond what they could afford or willing to spend at that moment)

What has been your experience with Closeout Domains?

Please I have suggested to the house before, if someone post a sale report. no need to quote the sale report and post congratulations.

You can quote if you have a followup question

Just like or Share.

Lets take a cue from Namepros, reported thread for domain sales, Any comment attracts negative number, there is another thread for discussing and asking questions about domain sales.

AwesomeDuru:
Hello everyone,

I'm happy to report my biggest single sale yet.

Name - A/h/a/f/u/n dot com
Purchase Price - $24 + 1 renewal
Price Sold - $4k
Hold Time - 13 months

Buyer first made an initial offer of $400, we negotiated and agreed on $4000.

I'm still hoping for my first 5 figure sale.

More sales everyone!

Congrats!! This is huge

For our learning, how did you determine that the domain had high worth.

I ask because if you didn't know, you probably won't have been able to negotiate from 400 to this sale price.

You would have yielded to the 400 or mid way

Heyzee5:

Patience is all you need! Pls be patient instead of the blame games.

I purposely made the letter "I" bold. Do I need to explain what this signifies?

So because I need patience I shouldn't ask the house on how I can resolve the issue

Because I need patience I shouldn't point out the erroneous post that led to my issue or tell others not to post info they aren't sure of.

If I had not spoken out, isn't there a possibility that that post would not have been corrected & someone falling prey to it.

If & when this is resolved, won't this be a learning to house. Will it be a learning if I don't talk about it.

If you had a pressing matter to resolve financially & had to let a domain go, then get to experience this delay in payment, please tell me to exercise patience

If you havent experienced this, sit this out & let those that have something helpful contribute.

At my young age am forced to collect loans to keep myself a float.
At just 19 am owing debt, I pity this man when I graduate, I'll show him pepper like mikel showed to his father.

How much debt do you owe?

McTeesticks:
I didn't give a procedure boss
I only stated how I did mine

First off, after successful transfer of the name, I asked Dan to send my payment in Pounds before I went to upload the grey details in my payment settings

It didn't take long for the money to land in

Perhaps you didn't make that request for GBP in your payment window

My apologies, the concluding paragraph was a generic message to the house. I wasnt referring to you.

To buttress my point, you shared your experience, what you did, not what you just read or wasn't sure or had not done.

You are also repeating the same thing(consistency) you havent changed what you initially wrote then & now.

Yes you are correct, I didn't request for DAN to send my payment in pounds.

I assumed DAN will convert & send based on info gotten from this thread.

ikhalyfah:

How long has this been?
If it's not too long, you can wait a little longer, I trust rejection will occur...

I had quite a similar situation with SH..

Thanks, it been awhile, lost your telegram handle

DAN sent funds Tuesday 28th June.

Please has anyone been in a situation like mine, USD payment being sent to a GBP account & not receiving the funds nor the funds being rejected.

If yes, please how did you resolve it.

For those who didnt see my initial post.

DAN sent payment Tuesday last week to Grey GBP acc

Grey says usd to the acc is blocked & as such, DAN should recall. DAN says they can't recall, I should wait for rejection.

Grey says automatic rejection takes 1-3business days & if that doesn't occur, DAN has to ask for recall

DAN says I should wait for rejection.

Cashew:
Hi there,

I noticed in one of your posts that you have over 1k portfolio, would it not make sense to post them on a web page and advertise the page with the hope of finding buyers.

In other words set up your own market place.

Just thinking, what do others think

Please note, I am specifically talking about the brandable market

The Trust factor will prevent you from having your own marketplace. Except you then redirect them back to other marketplace or escrow.com

Would love to know the 2 names you used as examples & it appears you have been into this for a long time

Faboosuarez:

. Ohh, thanks for the info
Wat if I wanna buy?

You want to buy to sell or buy to use?
