Is now a bad time to sell my domains?

    I am not an experienced seller of domains, but have a decent sized portfolio of domains that I need to sell. Have domain prices and sales been depressed lately like most other businesses?

    Yes, but if the domains are good they will sell for a nice price. Lower quality domains seem a little depressed in price.

    Of course....these are recessionary times....and people have generally cut back on their spending....

    But then...the bad time is to last for a fairly long period....and hence will test your patience if you are looking for good times to sell them....
    My advise.....just go ahead and sell them!!

    Why should that be bad time. I have to say that it is actual now, maybe not so active as used to be.

    Market is dead, people are not willing to invest on domains anymore, of course If you have a generic 1 word .com you can always find a way to sell It but for other extensions and other combinations It's hard to sell

    I think these times is the best for buying and not so great for selling but if the domain speaks for itself will go for a nice price for sure.

    Time to sell is always good if you get what you're asking for.

    Huh? What if they're just parked domains?

    I would say now isn't a great time - in general - to sell domains. At times of a global recession, people are going to be much more cautious.

    I don't think there is a bad or good time . If somebody offers you lot of money , and you think the price is worth it, go for it.

    While now may not be the best time to sell, it may get worse from here. If you truly need to sell, I think you just have to bite the bullet and get the best price you can now. If you can afford to wait, that's another matter. Just don't assume that the market will improve from here.

    I think you can sell your domains if you have the time to market and promote them well.

    Just make sure the domains you are holding are really worth renewing, not all names go up in value.
