Low Price .US Domains are Getting Flipped a Lot

Over a year ago we decided to let expire more than 50 mostly bad or dubious value letter dot-us names that we had been holding since as long as the year 2002 when most of them were acquired. We dropped them due to no traffic or income, plus poor acronym use potential.

It has been quite interesting watching the majority if not all of that group sold, resold, resold, resold and sold again on the domain name forums between domainers.

The sale prices are mostly between say $5 to $20. What makes it even more interesting is what with the low prices I don’t see how the domainers are flipping them for a profit and if they are making some money doing that it would not seem to be worth all the time and effort involved. It seems there is no end in sight as I again see many of them posted for sale again on the forums by their latest owners.
