I just completed my first sale on Afternic.

Thanks to @Zandibot. It is one of his video that made me try Afternic.

It was "Fast transfer" so it all happened very quickly. Before I knew it, the domain was already out of my account.

The buyer used the "Buy it now" which was $495 USD.
After the fees $99, it leaves me a net $396.

This domain was hand-registered by me in the middle of 2015. It was a brandable that was rejected on BrandBucket. But above all, that very same domain name has been for sale without success here on NamePros for months for only $10 (purple link in my signature post).

That is really the proof that any domain can sell when the right buyer comes along.

I'm happy with this sale.

Is it permitted to mention the domain name from an Afternic sale?

I just received this email:


Dear Dominic Belley (dominicbelley),

We are excited to let you know that escrow service for {hidden}.com has been initiated. Throughout the escrow process, you can see the status of your transaction and record updates on your secure escrow summary page.

Does this mean the domain is sold ?
That would be great !!

I can't answer that question. I never tried Sedo and I've been on Afternic only for 5 weeks so I can't come to a conclusion so soon on Afternic either.

I've been lucky to sell one very quickly. We'll see if I sell more in the future.

I have been asked what the domain is and after verifying with Afternic they told me I was allowed to share it.

The domain was : PayForValue.com

It is now forwarding to a big site.

You can try both at the same time. Why limit yourself to one? They are non-exclusive marketplaces.
