Hmmmm, with all this talk about dropping I would think that I'd see an uptick in the listings in the "low hanging fruit category" and that, at the same time, I'd see the smarter money aggressively picking up that fruit. I've been seeing some movement but not much acceleration.

When the 1999-2000 "dot com bubble" burst, and the loss of faith set in rather deeply in late 2002 and 2003, I went on a bit of a buying frenzy which has worked out rather nicely.

Truly, in down economies, one man's / woman's yardsale is another's opportunity to pick up some bargains. I suspect I won't be buying (much) in the low fruit aftermarket but that doesn't mean I won't "take a peek" every now and then.

In my book the best approach is to bulk list all your toss-offs at the various places that allow this (not here) and to set a very low sale price and a bulk price for the whole lot. Make the sale conditional: The whole lot - or a "better subset" - will be available for 48 hours, for a bulk purchase price, and if the whole lot doesn't sell during that time then the folks who offered to pay for individual domains (1 set price for all/each, with a few variations) will get the domains based upon a time stamp of their offers on individual domains.
