    Hi all,

    Im in a doubt.
    I'ved registered about 10 pretty good .ME domains, but i was thinking that it can be better to wait untill the auction of the premium .ME domains are finished.

    If i put my domains in an auction right now, i think it will not be sold that high, just because lot of people would like to bid on the real premium domains.

    How are you people thinking of that???

    What about send an email to selected companies and ask their attention for my domains?
    Will they think i spam them when i do that???

    Ill apreciate your opinion.:rolleyes:

    Actually you bought them to resell? or run them? it depends on what you wanted to do with the domains.. if you want to resell then you can try posting on those auction sites and see if they pick any interest.. i doubt if companies would want .me extension.. unless it carries their product name. that's just in my opinion..

    why don't you just put them on sedo.com. And, if the domain gets type-ins, you can also make some money from their domain parking.
    That way, you don't have to worry about finding the best time to sell these domains.

    Same problem here. I also own a few .me domains.. I decided to wait for a few months..(until all the good .me domains are registered) and then.. I'll try my luck.

    If your .me domains are really good buyers will come to you, if not do everything you can to market them now. I think the value is just going to go down as the .me hype is going away, so try to dump 'em asap if you can.

    Thanks for all the replies for so far :)

    Well, ived try one domain on Sedo, but Sedo doesnt put the link to buy (make an offer) on their parking page for me.
    The instructions are to change the DNS servers, and its automaticly shows the Sedo page, and then Sedo automaticly knows youre the owner.
    But on my account on Sedo it still shows that they need to check my WHOIS.
    Normally that would take 3 days.
    Its over 6 days already, without any reply.

    I also tryed Parked, but it seems they dont reply as well.
    I had to give them at least 10 domainnames and they should check the names, but still nothing heard after 4 days.
    Not even a single email.

    Well, anyone knows the best place to sell domainnames?

    When i check auction.domain.me i see also private persons can sell their .me domains over there.

    I think that you can start selling them right away. I have no idea when you will have your first deal, but that might take more then on month or even one year to find constituency. ;)

    If you try with sedo's home page listing. probably there are more chances to sell your domains for high bucks, just try with a single domain.
