How this mistake cost me $8,900 loss

Hi everyone,

I always find it happy to share my experiences, no matter how good or bad they’re. You might think why I still find it beneficial is because my fellow domain investors could at least avoid repeating the mistake I made.

So today I sold a domain via Sedo for $988 whereas I’ve priced it at $9,888 at Afternic. I by mistake priced it $988 instead of $9,888 at Sedo! Oh well, what a costly mistake I made.

This is the first time such an incident has happened in over 12 years and hopefully the last time as I will be more vigilant every time I will add the domain and add price to it.

I think there are a couple of tools to check if the prices match with all marketplaces, such as DnAcademy and Domain.io. One of my good friends told me that this can be done manually via excel sheet by downloading portfolios from the marketplaces and then matching it manually. Does anyone know any other free tool to double check the prices at multiple marketplaces?

Thank you for reading and feel free to share if you have had such experience in the past and how you dealt with it.
