Profitability concerning MC names?

[Slusheh]

This might not be the right part of the forum but I'm wondering if any of you guys know about the profitability around certain aspects of buying and selling a MC account, concerning mostly names.

Basically, is it worth it to buy a gift code/new MC account since there is no name history attached and you'll obviously have the TID. At what point is spending this extra money for an account like this worth it? Does it just depend if I'm getting a name such as Hi vs Chair, OG af vs pretty OG? Does anybody know how much more value you can really pull out of an account if it has no name history and you have TID, etc. I imagine the profit margin is worth it once the name itself is going to pull a lot of money anyway. If you guys don't know it's about 20$ more to just buy a brand new MC account vs buying an email access account (which usually doesn't have TID and obviously has a name history). Thanks all!

Minecraft usernames can be sold for a lot depending on the name. It really depends on how commonly used it is. For example, the username PC. Its worth 1.5k-3k. An amazing username. If the username is 2 letters, it is worth more since you can no longer get two letter usernames. Usernames that are words vary dramatically. If it is a commonly used word such as word, it is worth a lot more than a irregularly used word such as irregularly.
Name snipers are one way to get profit from usernames. They send a series of requests to change a username to the Mojang name change page when a username becomes available (check namemc.com).
Gift codes can be used on gift code snipers. They make it so there is no name history on a minecraft name snipe. A giftcode snipe is worth a lot more than a normal snipe, because for one it has no name history, and two it comes with TID.

[Censored]names are worth a lot more than Semi-OGs. A two letter that is also a word is worth a lot more than a username that is just OG. It also depends if the account has a cape on it (Optifine capes are worth basically nothing). 2011 capes make the account much more expensive.

Examples of [Censored]names: PC, 0r, Drive, Cloak, Secret, Hop, Bat, Scam, Drive.

Examples of Semi-[Censored]names: Ironically. Cloaked. Secrets. Hoping. Driving.

The best you can get is a 1 letter, with all capes. But none exist. Any none ever will. Unless a Mojang staff member creates one.
It is better to get an account with TID and no name history if the account is OG.

Thanks! That's what I thought, if it's really an OG name it's going to be worth to spend that little extra for a brand new account.
