What sets us apart

Selling Domain Names is our business and we are in our third year now. What sets us apart is the fact that our domain names have no reserve!

While many domain names have minimum bid requirements in the thousands of Dollars, we at domain-inventory allow every domain bid to start at the absolute minimum.

Besides being a solid investment, any domain from our inventory would be perfect to create a new website or direct additional traffic to an already existing internet presence.

We feature TLDs, Top Level Domains with various extensions such as .com .net .org .info .tel and ccTLDs, country code top level domains for Austria .at, Belgium .be, Germany .de, United Kingdom .co.uk, .us USA and the latest extension from Columbia .co.

Browse our website, domain-inventory.com and choose a domain in the language of your choice. Once you have found that perfect domain name, just make an offer or place a minimum bid.

To provide security and professional help for any domain name purchase, every one of my domains is registered with an ICANN accredited registrar: Godaddy, Omnis, Moniker, BookMyName, United-Domains or InterNetworX.

Please contact me for additional information or with any questions you might have. I would be happy to hear from you.

Inspiring

If you have been following and reading some of my tweets you probably noticed my emphasis on newsworthy articles about ecommerce, ebusiness, self-employment and of course domain names.

Most of what I think might be useful to entrepreneurs and worthy of retweeting, hopefully also finds at least one other person who could use this information.

Today I found this article that takes the cake for a great and outstanding story.

The article by Journal Sentinel Inc describes how Ben Janssen and his Appleton-based NexStep Inc, does a wonderful, successful business, without a brick and mortar store, by selling merchandise through the internet over several of their own websites.

The company is growing by selling merchandise and providing customer support, while creating jobs and making money.

I find the story very inspiring.

How to buy a domain name

Dear Domain Buyer.

Thank you for your email and your interest in 1PerfectDomain.com.

As you might have noticed on my website, all my domains are NO RESERVE domains, i.e. there is no minimum to place a bid.

To get a domain name auction for 1PerfectDomain.com started, you can place your initial bid at SEDO for as little as USD 75.

While the market would determine the final auction price, your second option is an outright buy at USD 250.

Please keep in mind that this domain name has not been used as a website at any time. It currently is offered for sale and parked at SEDO. Therefore GOOGLE analytics are not available, but domain statistics can be viewed at SEDO.

The domain name was created on February 11, 2009 and has never been developed. The advantage is, that you acquire a clean, 'virgin' domain name, that can be build up as a website as described in my original offer.

Dot-Com, top level domains (TLDs) represent such unique and valuable 'internet real estate assets' that acquiring  1PerfectDomain.com truly is a unique opportunity and a highly worthwhile investment.

All transactions with domain-inventory are secure online transactions and involve either a domain broker or (U.S.) certified escrow services or both and are done at no cost to you.

Thank you again. I am available to answer any question you might have and look forward to your response.

Best regards.

Deeper reaching change

Now that the launch of dotCo (.co) has taken companies, corporations and colleges by storm, sources tell us, that the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is preparing an even deeper reaching change in assigning new domain name extensions.

While the popularity of country code domain names (ccTLDs)  has reached ever higher popularity (with corresponding high prices), and many cities requesting their own domain name extension, such as .berlin or .newyork, this requesting and granting of domain name extensions for certain professions and geographical locations has apparently not yet reached its zenith.

Without wanting to dismantle the commercialization of specific existing domain extensions like .net, .org and .tel, new extensions dot-ne, dot-or and dot-te are in the making to define Internet addresses, locations and businesses in Nebraska, Oregon and Texas.

Senators from the state of Nebraska (NE) and Oregon (OR) gave testimony during a recent congressional hearing that, because of the remote location of both states, a proper state domain name extension pilot program could help to identify and open the otherwise great but overlooked U.S states to more Internet traffic.

GOOGLE would automatically place any Oregon or Nebraska business or location inquiry on top of their search result. The great state of Texas, with the claim to the biggest state in the Union, also was the first to claim the right to be first to implement their own state domain name (.te) on a big scale. (In a state wide survey most Texans indicated they prefer the easy to remember state domain extension .te, rather than postal i.d.TX).

Prior to testifying in Washington, the state budget committee and the Internal revenue service for each state urged their respective governments to implement the start of the new state domain name extension drive with the next fiscal period in order to collect much needed revenue.

Currently the legality of such intends is being tested in the house. A first draft of the proposal is making its way through state levels and is not expected to reach the hill until after summer recess.

Update:

In the unlikely event that certain countries give up their Internet country code, state Internet domain name endings (.IDs) for some U.S. states can only be implemented with an .us extension (.id.US), preliminary findings by the subcommittee have found.

.CO goes global tomorrow!

According to their website http://www.cointernet.co/ and their latest tweet, industry experts predict .CO will be the biggest domain since .com! .CO goes global tomorrow!

I wonder how many dotcom company executive have cursed the arrival of dotco. Having a dotcom extension secured for a company and a registered trademark name, why rushing out and possible pay for a name that's protected by a trade mark anyway. I don't thing any cybersquatter is going to rush out, trying to register a trade mark name with a .co extension unless they enjoy receiving mail from lawyers

The companies who are entitled to do so, might just acquire a dotco and than just not use it at all. Here's why. On every conversion and every email submitted verbally the question is going to be ask: 'It's not dotcom, it's dotco, right?'

When you have clarified this a few hundred times, you are going to wish dotco had better not be released by ICAAN.

Yes we all know what .co could stands for: your company, your organisation and quite a few other words from the english and other languages.

But the confusion dotco is going to cause because it is so similar to dotcom might just move some people and companies to ignore dotco altogether.

After all e.co only brought in USD 81000. How much e.com would have fetched?

Austrian Domain Names

Grüß Gott 

Checking on Austrian (.at) Domain Names, I find it  amazing how few .at domains have been sold in the last 7 month or offered for sale on the market at any time. Admittingly, a country with a population of only 8,5 million, might not be big enough to dominate domain sales headlines, but it still is amazing, how few domains are currently offered throught auctions or have been sold since the beginning of 2010.

Checking the latest domain sales figures from DNJournal on country code domain sales, one could think dot-at hasn’t been invented yet. The top one hundred ccTLDs (country code top level domains) sold since the beginning of 2010 only show two (2) dot-at domains; Plenty.at and Aegypten.at with any significant sell price.

The situation is not better at current marketplace auctions running at SEDO (as of July 13, 2010; 5:00 pm). Besides the usual top level domains like .com, .net and so forth, there even are such lesser wanted ones as .me .name and .cc offered for sale but not a single .at.

GoDaddy on his 'Featured Domains' page with 'pre-defined' option does not even offer the possibility to sort domains by .at extension.

Maybe, similar to South Africa, Austrians prefer .com, .net and other TLDs as their extension. The grip the .com extension has asserted and still does assert onto the world, still is powerful and almost omni-present. Or Österreich is simply saturated with all the dot-at domain names that they need right now.

But business owners in a country like Austria and local entrepreneurs who do business locally, don't need to search for high priced and hard to obtain .com domains when, right at home, they can easily find what fits their needs.

For those down to earth entrepreneurs and smart merchants I like to suggest a few German and English .at domains for sale. Servus.

ConciergeDesk.at
Entdeckungsreisen.at
Flachbild-TV.at
Flugschnäppchen.at
Musikfilm-Festival.at
Radwegenetz.at
SolarHandy.at
Traumdomizil.at
ViennaCafes.at
Wander-Angebote.at
WienSpezial.at 

Just plain annoying

I did not want to make any comments on the below mentioned domain name, but like a frenzy, it dominates the domain blogs, world headlines and GOOGLE news and I can not take it anymore.

Yes, I did break down and made a comment, too - you can read it below and it's posted at twitter:

'Could someone please buy sex.com. The constant headlines about this !@%$#%@ domain are just plain annoying'.

I added a second tweet a minute later:

'And please, don’t all start posting for how much it sold'.

And a third one:

'Thank you!'

(I am aware that it will not change anything).

Fact or Fiction

A few days ago, while browsing the web, looking for domain news, I came across an article about buying domain names. The writer, who, for preservation of his/her dignity, shall remain unnamed, advised and made the statement, ‘not to buy a domain from someone living in a foreign country because it’s too complicated’ (!). Touché. I live and work out of Germany, so of course I am bothered by careless statements regarding the domain business.

I shook my head in disbelieve and had to think for a moment, what defines a foreign country in terms of global Internet trade. Surely, any country outside of someone’s current place of residence or business could basically be ‘foreign’. If indeed people would think, foreign trade is ‘complicated’, global commerce as we know it would come to a screeching halt.

Using the Internet since its infancy (that’s 25+ years) I have gradually come to realize that country borders don’t really matter - at least concerning the information superhighway. Having said this and wanting to assure those who are not sure if they should buy a domain name from someone half way around the globe, (yes, you can) I have added the information below to my site.

It just goes to show while it’s nice to have a free, uncensored Internet, where anybody can publish whatever - I often wonder if it's fact or fiction.

QUOTE from my site: Every one of my domains is registered and hosted by ICANN-accredited registrars in the United States of America (OMNIS.COM, MONIKER.COM) and Europe (UNITED-DOMAINS.DE, INWX.DE, BOOKMYNAME.COM) so there is never a problem with transferring a domain name to a new owner. UNQUOTE.

Germans destroy Argentina

My latest tweet:
Germans destroy Argentina in quarterfinal, but remember - it ain't over 'til the fat lady sings.

What is the world coming to?

Poker.ca (.ca!) sells for $400k, Poker.org (.org!) for a cool million and Hotel-Reservation.com , a hyphenated domain name for crying out loud, fetched $142000.

Domain name history is being rewritten as we speak.

At least Photo.com and Flying .com still pulled in over one million dollars; otherwise one could lose faith in good old dotcom.

Something is not right

Let's assume you are in the business for a nice new car. Knowing value and the worth of solid investments you start looking at the best cars. Visiting a Mercedes auto salesroom or shopping on line with GOOGLE, it’s easy to see what you want is going to be expensive. A 350 S-Class Mercedes would cost you dearly and set you back about 100 big ones. Being a little short of cash you decide to think it over.

A few days later you noticed that there is a Mercedes sale, and you rush in to check the newly reduced prices. And yes, there it is - your dream mobile now on sale at an incredible low price, dropped to only $20,000. Nothing should stop you now; you finally can own the brand new limousine of your dreams. But would you buy it?

Of course, you know the story is pure fiction and will never happen. But if it would, what would you be thinking? Discarding the many impossibilities of a luxury car price being reduced by some 80 percent, the thought comes to mind that there must be something wrong. Maybe the car has no engine, or was made by the people who made Trabbies (cars made in East Germany), carries no warranty, or you have to return it after one week. Whatever the case might be, you would know something is not right.

The same applies to reduced domain names. Something is not right when a domain asking price drops from $100,000 to $20,000. What is the purpose of such huge domain price reduction? Either a reduced domain was grossly overpriced in the first place, or it is indeed totally worthless. 

Opposite to the many real domain sales success stories and quiet, behind the scene negotiations to reach agreeable pricing, there are inflated domains, whose irrational, radical price drop only serves to reduces the domain to junk status in the eyes of everyone except those of the seller, who dreamed up a hugely unrealistic asking price in the first place. Erratic pricing, inflated reserves as well as domain name price dumping only serve to confuse and scare away end-users, which precisely is the market segment most domainers trying to reach.

Experienced, responsible domain sellers and professional domain brokers will continue to achieve their goals without huffing and puffing, thus creating and upholding a trustworthy business climate where domain buyers can shop, bid and acquire domains with trust and confidence - without all the hype of a fire sale.

Country Code Domain Names

While dot com domains have been the rage since the first domain name was registered, many domainers realize, that yes, we should and do acquire and invest in country code top level domains, ccTLDs.

While Europe is struggling to straightening out its finances, with increased tax burdens for enraged taxpayers, domainers have been quietly moving in, to scoop up what might become tomorrow’s next virtual real estate boom.

Many global domainers/investors have apparently discovered that this could be a very promising market, despite the gloomy outlook of some EU countries. But how high is the interest for country code domains in Europe itself? Judging from stats provided by GOOGLE, it seems there still is plenty of opportunity to acquire quality ccTLDs.

An advance GOOGLE search for the German word ‘Domainnamen’ (Domain names) produced only 733.000 results. Still, the French word ‘nom de domaines' (domain names) came up with 3,000,000 results. (So much higher than Germany, because vineyards in French are also called domaines).

Comparing this with an advanced ‘English language only’ search for domains, which produced a whooping 96,700,000 response, that shows the popularity of top level domains, TLDs. However dot com is now often unaffordable while ccTLDs might still be relatively reasonable priced. It might be one factor fueling the current interest in ccTLDs.

As Europeans are busy getting their financial affairs in order, we might see another domain name boom, this time for ccTLDs, at a time while Germany's interior minister calls for the government takeover of domain name registration, while a few month earlier in January 2010, a French domain, Credit.fr,  sold through SEDO fetched €587,500 ($851,875).

Ignorance, complacency and needless over-regulation will have its price in the form of inflated future domain prices, when most premium domain names are acquired by investors, speculators, resellers and cyber squatters. With national interests and protectionism on the rise due to the current crisis in Europe, ‘going local’ with your own ccTLDs might be the right thing to do, right now.

Regardless of where you live - don’t wait until, as has happened with dot com, single word domains (of major European languages) are no longer available for registration. History tends to repeat itself.

Not convinced - than think about this: Having an English language domain name with a country code extension is all the rage right now all over Europe.

Dot 360 Domain Names

As we struggle to find the last available dot com domain name, some new trends have emerged. Witness the birth of the 'i' domain, of which first the iPhone and now the iPad is just the beginning. The number 24 as part of domain names is popular in Europe; prime example is N24.de, a popular German TV station.

Now we have 360.com and GOOGLE throws 400+ million search results out containing the number 360 (the suffix). Most popular amongst others is Holiday360.com, BIZ360.com and many others. Visit our dedicated 360 site to get ideas of what can be done with original domain names.

Dot 360 domain names have fetched prices well into the thousands, we offer over 50 domain names with the 360 suffix at no reserve. In total domain-inventory has over 400 top level domain names for sale including TLDs dot com, net, info, org, us, me, eu, de, at, and dot co.uk. It's very easy to get started with a minimum bid because all of our domains have a low reserve.

To purchase one or several of our domains please make an offer at SEDO, AFTERNIC, GODADDY or any domain broker of your choice. For a free, no obligations, buy-now offer with a market value quotation please contact me. Like at any domain name auction, final ownership goes to the highest bidder. So get started now with your minimum bid. For questions please contact any domain broker or us.

Four Letter Words

In a world where short domain names are king, because people otherwise might forget them, we are happy to offer a few four letter words of our own. While it amazes me with what strange domain names people sometimes come up with just to create a short name, I realize that I am equally guilty, for good reason though, of registering short domains that have not been discovered yet.

Who is to say that a four letter word, not easy to find in the domain marketplace, could not be an abbreviations for a four word company name, a four word sport or social event, somebody’s name, an industrial code, some civic association, club or new product. While I do not want to start giving suggestions for the use of our short domains,  I am confident that one or more of our domains, even those containing numbers, are exactly right for some specific web site.

There are most likely many entrepreneurs out there who might love a particular four letter domain word to be incorporated into their logos, letterheads and to be used for advertising. But often either the name is unavailable or owned by a squatter/domainer who parks the domain for income and will not let it go unless a high enough offer is made.

At domain-inventory we are not so clamped up, our domains start at minimum cost without a reserve price. We like you to own the domain you want and let the market place, through the bidding process at any accredited domain broker house, decide its final value.

On the other side of the short domain name spectrum are  new, inexperienced  start-ups, who must have a domain name, no matter what. They don't spend money on the right, short domain and thus constrict long, strange, search engine unfriendly, hyper-hyphenated domains, that makes you think, 'what were they thinking'. To top it, the newly created 'company' domain name than gets plastered to the back end of a vehicle, thus creating IT-cowboy-mass-media-bumper-sticker-shock. All intentionally, of course.

In order to retain our readers base, who, I hope, are a nice bunch of sane, cool headed entrepreneurs, trend setters, future leaders and job creators who would never dream up such redundant escapades, we offer just a few, clean, four letter words that will make sense and use to some, so we hope, and now are available for purchase to anyone looking for short premium TLDs or ccTLDs.

When a brief domain name fits the purpose, a four letter word is a beautiful thing.

La Belle France

There are many good reasons to own French languages domains. The country is on top of the world’s most visited tourist destination. French history is filled with famous personalities and great names that have influenced history and have become synonymous for La Grande Nation. Jean d’Arc, Monet, Debussy, Dumas, Hugo, Pasteur, Napoleon, Eiffel, De Gaulle and many others make the French very proud to be, well, French.

Beside all kinds of regional, tasty ethnic and great French food, served in thousands of Parisian small and large bistros and restaurants, there are many unique and worthwhile sites, attractions and monuments not to be missed. Amongst them the Champ Elysee, La Tour Eiffel, La Seine, Le Louvre and many other museums, Le Centre Pompidou and so many more sites. Shopping is equally great and offers different experiences in any of the 20 arrondissements, from the 18th and its local market, with the Basilique du Sacré-Cœur towering above, to the très chic (very chic) and expensive 16th arrondissements. Don’t skip the great department stores and small boutiques that can be found everywhere.

Anyone who could spend some time in Paris, as exchange student (au pair) or to study at the Sorbonne, or as writer, artist or entrepreneur should count their blessings. Living in France and particular in Paris is an experience to be remembered for life. Learning French in the process will always come in handy, even if it just means to pronounce the names of French wines correctly. France is a country with a very diversified and beautiful country side, mountains in the south and the sea on two cotes; the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. 

Deauville, located a two hour train ride out of Paris by Gare Saint-Lazare, had already become popular with Parisian in the twenties as a pleasant place to escape the hustle of noisy Parisian live. To this day Deauville and the surrounding country side and beaches, is a much thought after destination with fewer visitors than the Cote d’azur.  Relaxing, a bit out of the way,  it is bordering on La Bretagne and a perfect summer vacation getaway. Often described as a most glamorous seaside resort, it symbolizes elegance, prestige and sophistication. Wide open beaches, cultural festivals, sports events, and now the 150 anniversary being celebrated in 2010, makes this a choice location for many French and European visitors alike. A visit to Le Mont Saint-Michel should definitely be on your itinerary.

Lyon is located 470 km south of Paris. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the second-largest metropolitan area in France after that of Paris and the culinary capital of France. Further southwest, on the Garonne River lays the port city of Bordeaux. It is among the world's major wine industry centers and on the UNESCO World Heritage List as ‘an outstanding urban and architectural ensemble’.

In a corner of France, west of Marseille La Camarque and Saintes Maries de la Mer awaits discovery. Gypsy ceremonies and festivals going back to Middle Ages add quite a special touch so different from everything else in France and worlds removed from the Parisian way of live. While in the area visit Arles and Nimes, their history dates back to the Roman Empire. Marseille, on the Mediterranean Sea the oldest city in France has the country’s largest commercial port.

The Côte d'Azur has never ceased to draw millions of French vacationers into the many small and large towns and cities along the cost and into Provence mainly during July and August. Germans, British and North American tourists have always been attracted to the beaches, nightlife and relaxed way of live in Cannes, Nice and the many smaller gems, like La Ciotat, Beaulieu-sur-Mer and Le Lavandou and many other vacation resorts and picturesque small villages of Provence.

Domains for Hawaii

This time we go local. I am offering quality, premium top level made-for-Hawaii domain names for sale. To see the domains right away you can skip to the bottom of this blog or first read my short lived, true story about my experience in Hawaii.

Hawaii is definitely a very special state, I know, I lived there. Having traveled to most states of the beautifully United States, Hawaii was the state I picked when I wanted to move somewhere else. Why? At the time I had been living in Florida for 5 years and wanted to make a change. The perfect state had to have clean air, fresh water and lots of sunshine. And an ocean nearby. Besides Arizona, New Mexico and Utah which I all love, but have no ocean, there was only one place to move to.

I wanted to be prepared while still living in Miami, so before actually flying out there, I subscribed to a Honolulu Newspaper, the Honolulu Advertiser, as well as surfing magazine, opened a Hawaiian bank account by mail, and few month later I sold everything I owned and flew out there, across the country, via San Francisco across the Pacific to Honolulu. Ahead of my arrival I had reserved a hotel room on Waikiki Beach but lived at the hotel for only seven days. This is how long it took me to find a more permanent place. So after seven days I moved into a studio apartment, (with two balconies), two street blocks away from famous Waikiki Beach. It took only another week to find a job as a restaurant manager at 'Spats' and I was all set.

During my stay I discovered the entertaining, open air Ala Moana shopping center with its fabulous mix of different people, colors, shops and cultures from around the world and delicious, great smelling food everywhere. I took (humiliating) surfing lessons right on Waikiki Beach (good idea, bad location), and experienced a Tsunami warning which moved us all to the top of Diamond Head. I started a Hawaiian shirt collection, visited local surfing spots on Hawaii’s north shore, took wild rides in 'toilet bowls' - vertical tunnels carved out by the sea, where you jump in and ride up and down and felt like I had found a piece of real paradise while standing under a tall waterfall, looking up, to see pearls of water cascading down on me.

It was all over after 4 month, when I moved back to the mainland as locals call the continental United States. It was a beautiful experience that I can wholeheartedly recommend to anyone, just don’t think about leaving. I thought I'd never leave because it is it really is one of the most magic spots on the planet. Since the 50th state in the Union is also amongst the 50 most beautiful in the US, I am sure you will appreciate the top level domain names, I hope will soon grace a web site from the Aloha state or some other 'paradise' related web site:

Get your web site to the top

When I was very young, back in my native Berlin, my family moved around with public street cars. Street cars and buses were, and still are today, the means of transportation for folks who did not have or want to use cars. For a youngster like me, I was always trying to find a window seat. Once found, I would look out through the trams windows towards the street signs, so as to learn to read fast, while the tram was moving along. I was trying to read all and every shop sign that the tram would pass. After a while and having done this many times, I knew the signs by their color, shape and size. I did not know those business, not visible along the way, out of my field of vision.

The point I am trying to make is, if a business is not visible, and it might as well not exist. How many people are going to find an obscure business purely by luck or fate? Maybe they stumble upon a shop or store, because they took a wrong turn. Business today, like then, get noticed only when they are visible.

However today, a brick and mortar shop or store could so obscure and be located in the most remote corner of the universe: If the shop has a website and does everything else right, it does not matter where it is located. The right domain name and the Internet can bring that business into the lime light of the global market place.

If a business has a quality Internet presence, interested buyers and clients will easily find it, using key word searches through Google and other search engines. Google makes it easy to be on top of searches when all things like the right domain name, great content, SEO and a site that delivers, fall into place. It simple means a more successful business with more revenue.

If you do have a web site already and it’s doing well consider buying another domain name related to your current business. Use the other, new domain name to link to your existing web site business and get even more visitors. How does that work? Simple. If you would own shoes.com (you should be so lucky), you would get quite a few, if not to say, a lot of visitors, who are looking for shoes. Search for shoes at Google and who comes up on top? Shoes.com of course. Now there is the lovely Ms. Jones and she is looking for Lady's shoes, so she is typing 'ladies shoes' in her search engine and gets a lot of choices and different websites. If you own the domain Ladies-shoes.com, (even with a hyphen), guess who Goggle is going to place on top of Mrs. Jones' search. Right, Ladies-shoes.com, or maybe even shoes dot net or some other top level extension.

Because you own ladies-shoes.com you do not need to open another website, even though you could.

Depending on how big you really want to be and how much of your market you want to corner, how successful you want to be - that's how many web sites, 'ahem' domain names, related to your business, commerce or trade you might want to buy and own.

Domain Name Value.

Owning only a few hundred domains I have not found the time yet to attach a value to every single domain name. At first I am always thrilled, when an offer arrives. But at times, when taking a closer look, I realize this low offer is really nothing else but a cheap shot at a top level domain. Maybe some domain owners are to blame, offering their names at every turn for next to nothing, and so creating the impression that there is a domain name flea market out there. My usual response is to make a counter offer that brings negotiation to a screeching halt before they even have a change to begin.

There is a difference between placing a first low bid at an auction and a (to low) offer to buy a domain right away. Many domains have been sold for large amounts of money, when the first bid met the minimum requirement, often below U.S. Dollar 100. When a domain is offered at no reserve, minimum bid, the seller runs the risk of getting stuck with the first and only bid, and thus having to sell the domain below market value. But such is life. On the other hand the domain might fetch the amount that both, seller and buyer can be happy with.

However, when making a direct offer for a domain on a buy outright basis, without going through any bidding process, I think the offer should be made carefully and be somewhat realistic. There is a minimum value that comes with any good, quality, premium, usable domain name. Domain names are bought and sold on a daily basis. The ones that make the headlines are those that set new records with prices that zoom into the stratosphere. That does not mean less desired domains are worthless and would be sold at the first minimum offer. Check domain name news and statistics to see that the private and auction domain name market is well and alive.  Buyers and sellers come together daily and hundreds of domains get transferred and do change hands at fair market value. 

Key word domains, domains with hyphens and/or numbers, country code or non English name domains, and domains with all different extensions, other than dot com, continue to rake in high prices. And when that happens everyone seems to be surprised, simply because it seems to be outside limited and self set norms of thinking, that anything other than a one word English language dot com domain name, is basically worthless. That is, in my opinion, pretty narrow-minded and very ignorant thinking. To make a too low offer, saying 'here you go, yes, I want your domain and but this is all what I am willing to pay for it' will most likely not producing a very enthusiastic response from the seller owner.

Any entrepreneur with a business/commerce web site knows what key word(s) to look for when shopping for a domain name. They know exactly the name and the nature of their business and what specific URL should crown their web site, even before they put the first cent into it. A person like this would not waste any time by making useless offers.

Any outright buy offer should take the ‘want’ fact into consideration and value the domain name for its uniqueness. The past and current, private and public domain name transactions, and prices, have shown there are no alternatives for top level domain names. To acquire a particular domain, make an offer that makes sense and is just and fair. It will make you feel good too, because, once you own 'that' domain you know, you have found and acquired the right domain name. And that's priceless.
