Prime Example.

PersonalBanruptcy.org is curently at $435 with 5 days to go.

PersonalBanruptcy.net is sitting in Buy it Now at Snapnames for $1,188.

While some may say the .org is better at this price you might as well pick up both and one you dont have to bid on plus odds are the .org may sell for higher when the .net will never be found since no one decided to look for it.

Sometimes I feel like it is truly like follow the herd mentality for many buying domains – Learn how to search the aftermarket venues and you will find many deals, many times much better than you will ever find in auction.
