hi Harvey, we dropped any names we don't think we can sell so keeping them means we think they will sell.

It's not hard to understand:

If your domain sucks, they or anyone else does not want to be bothered with it.

[XPays]

there are a lot of names in the auction that are great investments

So its completely owned by MediaRevenue now?

Evan, do you think maybe the way you have this set up is preventing bidding activity?

I am not, and of course, nobody can, doubt your ability to close major deals, but there are many many domains in this auction, and almost zero activity.... unless of course there are a lot of bids, "outside the system" (in which case you should get them in the system quickly to encourage others).

In my humble opinion, having the reserve as the starting price is a mistake. Surely allowing people to make a significantly lower opening bid would generate a lot more interest which in turn could help build momentum.

If I saw a domain I liked but was unsure whether it was worth the reserve price, being able to make a bid on it and seeing whether others were also interested might help convince me.

It would also give the domain owner the chance of continuing negotiation with an interested party (through you) after the event.

i hear you, but i don't think that is an issue at all. we have run several auctions with the same exact model and the last one in sept was so well participated that it crashed. never know how the auctions will finish. secondly, bidders should and usually don't hesitate to request a reserve reduction if they feel a name warrants it. if i had to be super critical, i would suggest that many domains are priced above market. there are also names priced below market. if the auction does not work out, we can keep pushing with fixed prices for our clients and hopefully the exposure provided for the names works out like usual... thanks for your feedback and we'll have to wait and see how the auction finishes.

[PornoMonster]

I agree with Lagcam. I judge if a name is worth the asking price based on others bidding. What does it hurt starting a bid lower, and having a reserve? If I was selling a domain and received zero bids, I would then wonder how much lower I need to make the fixed price. There is always the buy it now price if someone does want it bad, thinks the price is worth it and does not want to risk losing it during an auction.

The only good thing I see to this is people who are not motivated to sell. They are happy to wait for the right big fish to come along, if it is 30 days or 3 years. Just using the auction as exposure.

[Relentless]

Selling a domain for 1.5M ... Nice.
Selling that same domain for the third time... Very Nice
How much do you plan to sell it for the next time? ;)
