Slept In, Missed The Auction, But Found Some More Names….
January 19, 1 Comment - Author: Simon Johnson
Over the past week or so I’ve observed a number of premium names in the drop process. While not unusual I was surprised at how low they went for.
I’ve always maintained that now is a great time to buy domains. Those that are focused on the short term (or need cash to pay off their mortgages) are selling or simply not renewing. Those with cash (who are buying), have less competitors in auctions because some people don’t want to spend.
Here is an example of a name that went for more than $2,300 this morning over at NameJet. It was InternetMarketing.org. To be honest, I was in the auction but decided to sleep in on Sunday. 
The drop times are not that attractive to those outside the USA.
After I got up and had a coffee, I decided to have a look over at Snapnames and found some great domains with low starting prices. Check them out:
- tuition.com – $60 min bid
- corporateevents.com – $79 min bid
- rentalpackages.com – $79 min bid
- punishable.com – $79 min bid
- socialiser.com – $59 min bid
- letteropener.com – $79 min bid
- ferriswheel.com – $79 min bid
My favorite is of course tuition.com, followed by ferriswheel.com. Tuition is highly searched on, just think of all the college students! People are addicted to going on FerrisWheels, so having FerrisWheel.com might be a good novelty / niche site.

I agree with you Tuition & Ferris Wheel are my two favourites also.
I would expect both sell for $,$$$ – I think Tuition.com maybe even $$,$$$ which is still a steal.
