Hello,

I am looking to buy domain names with certain criteria:

1) Must be registered for longer than a year. That means if you look at the WHOIS record it shows the original registration date as 9/01 or older.

2) Must be able to be transferred. This means domains that are not within 45 days of renewal.

3) Content doesn't matter. I won't use your content.

3) Do not repond if you're looking to get rich off your domains. I am willing to pay up to $20.00 for the domain as it will cost me $8.00 to transfer it. Again, I put emphasis on NOT GETTING RICH. This isn't an offer for speculative sellers. It's an offer for people who have domains they just want to sell to raise a little cash or recoup their registration fees.

4) I am looking to buy ten of these domains right now.

5) I prefer domain names with words in them and no hyphens. Domains describing humor or technology are preferred.

This is a great opportunity to make a little, I stress little, money off of a domain you registered two years ago but haven't developed. If you're like me you have many domains just laying around. Sell them to me and then register another one you like better. :-)

Please respond to this offer via e-mail with the domain name and the price you'd like to sell it for.

Wondering the same thing :)

Who wants OLD domains?

The only thing it could be is so that it appears this Co/Domain has been around a while.

The answer to your question is 42.

The idea behind securing older domain names is so that I don't have to go blind looking through Deleted Domains. Hence, that is why I am not limiting it to, say, hosting. I'm open to all subject areas.

Another reason is that if people have kept if for a year they see some value in it. Some being the keyword. Again, I stress, this isn't for people who want to make a ton of money off their domains. It's for folks who have tired of keeping certain domains and want to make back their registration fee and a little money.

I have 5 domains that I want to get rid of - but most aren't quite a year old. Definitely able to transfer them though as they are older than 2 months. Interested??

I have a domain list here (http://www.danrak.com/domain.htm) Most of them I've used to drive traffic to other sites. Got them through deletedomains.com Some where fairly new, about 2 or 3 months, and some older. I need to go through the list this weekend though and pick out some of that have been sold/expired. Let me know.
