I don’t necessarily agree, the potential buyer might get dozens of posts, PM’s and emails to sift through. When I send one or more domains to those types of requests, I usually forget about it and only expect to hear back if they’re interested. Best to submit your domains and move on to the next thing.

I agree 150% As a seller, often it takes time to go through a portfolio, picking out the right names someone is looking for with all their prerequisite stipulations: age of domain, proper extension, category, word count, letter count, none of this, none of that, etc and then send that to the buyer looking for the name. On the buyers side, it takes no time at all to be courteous and simply say “No thanks”

No response is the same as saying “I’ll be nice to you and respond if I’m interested; Otherwise, you’re not worth my time to even acknowledge your efforts.”

I couldn’t agree more. People (I’ve heard of a few over at domaining.com) that don’t have the courtesy to respond (even if it only is a “No thanks”) need to get a reality check.

I’m pretty sure nobody cares if they have schedule that keeps them busy 24/7. If they ask for domain offers, respond! Everything else is just a complete lack of professionalism.

I have to disagree with this, sometimes I post saying I am buying high-quality domains for low cost, only interested in something really wanting liquidity. Usually I get bombarded with messages, 100 or more. I always end up buying something.

That said I will keep your post in mind and note that I will only be responding if interested.

Otherwise I find it just ends up in a back and forth with someone trying to negotiate the price.
