Good point and something that is not always taken into consideration.

I always wonder how domainers can justify paying the high .tv renewal fees year after year, especially for low or no income names, or non-valuable keyword domains?

Some are eternal optimists. Some buy to develop. Others are working on the greater fool principle.

This one surprised me. I once made a much higher offer for it when things were still relatively healthy in the market, then it went to auction no reserve and got $35k which I thought was on the lower side of things, now even lower...

It has been a very bad business model for most holding those names. Rarely do they recoup the renewal fees on premium names in my view.
