TopModel.com Sells for $117,500

SnapNames.com came up the big winner last week with the sale of TopModel.com for $117,500. The owners of OrientalFurniture.com purchased the domain name RoomDividers.com for $40,000 in a private sale. GoNYC.com sold for $40,000 on Afternic.com, while DNForum scored the big sale of Mozilla.com for $40,000.

When I see a domain name like RoomDividers.com go for $40,000 it makes me wonder what my domain name, CustomFitBlinds.com, would be worth. I’d appreciate hearing your feedback with any thoughts you might have on the value of this domain name. Likewise, if you’re in the blinds business and have an interest in buying it, I’ll entertain serious offers.

In the world of 2-letter/number domain names Sedo.com scored a hit with the sale of 7H.com for $20,500, while Y3.com sold for $19,279 at SnapNames.com. One of the big surprises of the week to me was the sale of 18.no for $17,150 on Sedo.com.

Finally, one domain name gets a lot of type-in search engine traffic, namely FreeLove.com, went for $17,650 on SnapNames.com. The domain name brings up images of the hippy years when the term “free love” was used extensively and became a household word. These day “free love” is a highly searched term on Google, MSN and Yahoo.com, so its no surprise that the dot com domain name version would go for such a high value. In fact, if I’m surprised at all it would be over the fact that I think the domain name could have sold for a higher value than it did.

4-Number Domain Goes for Mid $-Figures

The domain name 4010.com sold for $5,000 on Sedo.com. I simply cannot believe how many chances I passed up on registering numerical domain names a few short years ago. Sad to say, but all of these are worth far more than most 4-letter domain dot com’s, of which I have many. I do have a pretty decent 3-letter/number mix dot com in my 65Q.com and feel it will be worth a lot one day. If you’re looking for something like this make me an offer.

In the process of renewing some domains of mine, I came across 4 I like very much because they are easy to remember and could actually be used to create great content driven sites or web portals. They were WiseGenius.com, TeenageGenius.com, WorkingCat.com and SquareDaddy.com. If you have an interest on buying any of these 4 domains, make me a good offer.

The big domain name sale of the week, last week, was Phones.co.uk, which sold in a private sale for 175,000 pounds, or approximately $344,700. That’s some pretty good bucks for a .co.uk domain name and one that really surprised me.

One 4-letter dot com sale that really did surprise me last week was the sell of Ozmo.com for $25,000 on Sedo. Surprising me on the downside was the sell of Toxicology.com which sold for only $26,300 on NameJet.com. I would have thought that single-word domain name would have gone for much higher.

Blonde.com Topped by Sale of Deals.de

Blonde.com sold a week a week ago for $99,000 and Track.com, another one-word domain name sold for $92,000, only to be outdone by the sale of Deals.de in a private sale that brought the seller €65,640 Euros.  At today’s exchange rate that amounts to $103,625 U.S. dollars.  These three domain name sales amounted to the highest sales prices we were able to track down for sales during the third week of June. 

Another .de (German) domain name, Nepal.de, sold for €38,000 Euros, or approximately $59,000 U.S. dollars.  Interesting sales of one-word domains with other extensions included Baseball.us, which sold for $25,000 on Sedo, Income.ca (a Canadian domain name), which sold for $26.242 at MyID.ca. 

Other at Moniker.com we saw Closings.com sell for $25,000.  But the real winners at Moniket was the sale of Track.com mentioned heretofore for $92,000, and our favorite, ComputerParts.com, which sold for $80,000. 

In the area of 2 and 3-letter domains we saw CV.ca sell at MyID.ca for $54,977 and NWN.com sell at Sedo.com for $22,500.  One that puzzled us until we looked up the name, was the sale of Alpari.com for $65,000 on Sedo.com.  We did did some research and found a very popular Forex Trading software program that went by the same name and heretofore did not own the dot com version.  We can only assume that they were the lucky buyer of this domain name.

.de German Domain Sells for 10,100 Euros

The German domain name fotograph.de sold on Sedo.com for 10,100 Euro’s, or approximately $15,560 U.S. Dollars. It’s pretty much a given that the buyer of this domain name will use it as a retail site, whether to market photo processing, camera’s, photographic equipment, online photo storage and galleries, etc. Thus, assuming I’m correct with that assumption, I think they picked this domain up at a very good price.

Every now and then a domain name sells for a pretty good price and you say to yourself, “Say what?” or “I don’t get it.” Such is the case with the sale of BankTunes.com for $2,550.  Okay, this domain name does have a ring to it, I give you that much, but TunesBank.com would be a much better domain name if this was purchased for a music sales and distribution website.  On the other hand, if the idea is to create on online venture where you pay for Internet storage of your digital music file (i.e. tunes), then I can see where this domain name could really catch on. 

One Word Domain Name Auctions

Several one-word domain name auctions are currently taking place on Sedo.com.  Comedy.org is currently sitting at $20,000 with 1 bid, but has 5 days and 14 hours left on the auction.  Surprisingly, Pokern.at is at the top of the Sedo.com 7-day auction list at 36,000 Euros from a single bidder.

Three new one-word domains have started 7-day auctions witin the last 10 to 11 hours, and equally surprising, they are sitting at very low bid levels as I write this post.  Wrongful.com is currently at $500, Workable.com is resting at $150 and Watery.com is at $107.  Obviously, there’s lots of time left on these auctions and we surely expect all three of these domains to go very high.  We’ll try to keep you in touch with these auctions in the coming days.

Speaking of one-word domain names, I found one in my inventory yesterday I had totally forgotten I owned.  The domain is Qualifyings.com   — maybe not the best one-word domain name, but it would be a great domain name for a website about sports, whether it be a listing of athletes who qualified for various sports, athletes that qualified to make the Olympics team, etc.   If you’re interested in it, make me great offer.

I received a $300 offer for my domain GoPeddle.com, but chose not to sell it.  I think its a great name for a bike shop or anyone wishing to sell products you peddler, whether it be bicycles, exercise bikes, paddle boats, etc.  Make me a high 3-figure offer and the domain name can be yours.
