5 Live Traffic Auctions: Where are all these Good, Well Priced Domains Going to Come From?? - A comment posted by one of our readers, Koz to another post, got me thinking about today’s announcement of up to 5 live domain auctions at the TRAFFIC.
The question is where are all these names going to come from?
Buyers we got.
As we saw this past weekend in Chicago there are buyers for good, well priced domains.
But for fair or overpriced domains, there is no market.
For a normal TRAFFIC auction Moniker, according to reports, gets somewhere around 100K-125K submissions.
Many of these have been ... read more ...

Tucows Still Pulling Their Own Domains out of Auctions - According to a post in Dot Weekly Tucows is still pulling domains from the Afternic Platform.
I will not relay our dealings with Tucows in their in-house auctions again (you can read all the posts herein) but basically they took back 260 domains they sold at auction, after they sold, saying that it was a mistake those domains we placed into the auction.
When the Tucows expired domain auction moved to Afternic Dot Weekly reported that several domains again were pulled from the auction blaming it on ... read more ...

More Live Auctions At Traffic: Does it Mean More $$$ - With the announcement by the TRAFFIC show organizers yesterday that there would be up to three live domain auction at TRAFFIC the question is will this result in an overall higher amount of sales?
Here’s our take.
This is pretty much a zero sum game.
Lets say there are 500 people attending the conference in New York.
Each person comes with a budget in mind for buying domains. Of course budgets are sometime bent somewhat, but if someone has a budget of $5K or $50K, does that budget exponentially ... read more ...
