These three companies are still buying domain names in the down market.
Domain buyers are fewer and further between in this down economy. But that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. Here are three companies that still want to buy your domain names.
Oversee.net – parent company of Moniker, SnapNames, and DomainSponsor. Oversee.net is still buying domains and portfolios of domains. You shouldn’t expect to sell for what you would have two years ago, but the company still allocates a significant amount of cash to buying. The company will consider any non-trademarked, non-adult names. Although the company doesn’t divulge how it values domains, its seller inquiry form focuses on traffic and revenue.
NameMedia – parent company of BuyDomains, Afternic, and three domain parking companies. NameMedia sells domain names to end users, so domains need not have traffic as much as end user appeal. The company typically sells domains for $500-$5,000. It also understands it may hold onto the domains it buys for many years before selling them. So don’t expect to sell domains to NameMedia for what you could sell them to one-off investors. They buy in bulk and buy quickly. It’s called liquidity. You can submit your domains online at BuyDomains.
National A-1 – don’t try to sell your entire portfolio of decent domains to National A-1. They’re only looking for the Crème de la Crème. Category Killers. Here are some examples of domains they’ve purchased: free.com, fun.com, cash.com, divorce.com. National A-1 is looking for premium generics, especially ones that make sense for ecommerce web sites. It doesn’t hurt to have the singular and plural version of the domain, too. You can learn more about and contact National A-1 at here.

I am also interested by top premium domains (with a +700 as domainscore).
Andrew Allemann says
@ Francois – I assume you’re talking about the scores on http://www.domainvaluation.com/ ?
EM @ KING.NET says

I’m not surprise to your list.

Francois says
Yes, or simply use DomainScore.com if you don’t want to provide any email address butb simply want to calculate your domain name score.
And for those that have top dot com premium domains to sell that match this minimum 700 scoring simply send me an email at:

By the way, no adult, gambling, typo, …
Domainer says
All of it is a negotiation process.
I haven’t used any of Francois tools but I know it is a negotiation process with him.
Today, gold is trading around $ 950.
Using that as an example, all of these buyers would only offer you/me $ 100 – $ 400. (depending on the buyer)
That is why most of the major domain owners (Like – Rick Schwartz) will only negotiate with endusers or serious buyers.
Why leave most of the money on the table?
Tan Tran says
I thought I would get in on the fun as well.
If you have some domain names you wish to sell you can go here and submit your list:

Usually the idea about price between buyers and sellers is spread tenfold or more

Have you tried selling your domains at ibuyuglycomains.com? How much did they pay you?
