The Bank of China missed out on their name in Chinese though.

中国银行.com is in the hands of a speculator.

Thanks A few more hyphens sales have been included to the first post.

Bargain-Domains

I just bought a domain today, www.car-quotes.com for $725.

Overture for "car quotes" = 959343
Overture for "carquotes.com" = 523

Lots of people do use hyphins. Usually, they will do something like go to "www.freegames.com" and when they hit a site they dont like, they'll try "free-games.com".

Plus lots of hyphen domain names get great google placement. More and more company's are using these domains to advertise with.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=161100

Type Google always has these types of domains being advertised: price-autos.com, trade-in-value.com, cheap-insurance-quotes.com, ect.

This, maybe, shows a shift in what internet users are looking for. While they may not type a hyphen in a URL bar very often, they see the words "car-quote.com" and realize - hey, thats what I want, a "Car Quote".

These domains are obviously rising in value, so find some unregged hyphens and start investing .

- me -

Four of 'em on front page of afternic today.

ne-ws.com 750 04/17/2006
address-search.com 3,000 04/17/2006
christian-music.com 3,750 04/17/2006
music-videos.com 25,000 04/17/2006

Just came to this thread after reading equity's. I had no idea so many have been selling lately. Dang. Makes me wonder what's left out there?

Some nice ones you have there, gazzip.

I've been quite surprised at some of the hyphen sales as well. Makes me think that I should get more serious regging/acquiring some hyphen domains.

A major Portion of traffic on internet is generated by SERP's
Hyphenated Names are listed just as high (or higher) than non-Hyphenated
SO why not register some.
It is the old .com only mentality.
Type any Search term you can think of into GOOGLE/YAhoo/MSN and checkout just how many results are NOT Non-hyphenated .COM's
One of my HIGHEST traffic Names is Become-Rich.biz
All the DoomSayers would say "OH No, a Hyphenated .BIZ"
But a non-hyphenated .COM with a fraction of the Traffic would be considered Great. Go Figure!!!!!
For branding purposes , Hyphenated Names also solve the problem often seen
where names have multiple meanings such as
mp3s-hits.com << where the Non-hypenated version could mean something else. Hopefully the whole Non-Hyphenated Hype may at last disappear

I just picked up Cotai-Casino . com

That area over there is going to explode.

gazzip

Thanks -me- I will add them in soon Cheers

Thanks Capiche - No hyphen sales as of yet but looks like some others do ok will them.

looks like it going to be an interesting development eh - Cotai.com is just a parking page at the moment ?

I'm surprised that was not already gone ??

capiche

Yeah, most of the Macau/Macao/CoTai names are parked pages at the moment.
Macau.com was basically a parked page too, until it sold for $550,000.

gazzip

I bet Cotai.com will go for almost that too when the development is up and running.

I like the cellphone one - only one result in archieve which shows it was a site for ringtones and wallpapers, looks like it may have been previously owned by - http://www.mediaplazza.com/home.php ?? I'm surprised they let that one drop

Nice little find

Erotic-Lady was also developed from 2002 to 2005

What's wrong with hypen domains?

some key 2worders can be quietly picked up in hyphen form due to domaining hyphen-blindness. cellphone-world is a an example of this.

verbster

Even though some purists shun hyphens, they will be the next "rush"...especially with .com extensions. It's already started.

music-lyrics.com 7,450 04/25/2006 (afternic.com)

3par

that give me some hope to my names like web-gadgets.com, or even things with number and hyphen, like 4-th.com, or 20-s.com.

Volholic

Just got another that dropped---just could not help it
The .net and .biz were already regged
Over 7million google results

Go-To-College.com

Now I just need to start selling some of them

I wanted to sleep on it…I tried to sleep on it…and I almost made it through the dark, cold night…but…but then….the warm screen flickered... beckoning me, calling me...and I couldn’t take it any longer…I got all sweaty and confused…my tongue swelled, my scrotum shriveled…I was possessed by domainic desires…of greed..of hurry...the feelings...they enticed me like a warm wave…I started swearing to my God and on my mother’s grave that I would do it just this one and only time…and...and…aaaarrrgh! I couldn’t stop myself ... I punched the keys, and with one fateful tab… one fatal jab…I entered Hyphen-Hell! Have mercy on me.
