nq.com goes for $27k on afternic


someone sold nq.com for $27k today:
http://www.afternic.com/name.php?id=856372
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-name-discussion/22597-nq-com-goes-for-27k-afternic.html

Jumped from $9.5k to $27k in one day? Sounds arranged.

But this makes the third highest sale on (the new) Afternic.

Maybe I wasn't paying attention, but what's the "new Afternic"?

The new Afternic was launched at the start of 2003 with a new owner.
(The previous one went under and was owned by Register.com)

Oh wow, no wonder I never heard of the "old Afternic"! Look like Roger Collins, the computer whiz, made a sound business investment with that one!

Thanks for providing the informational link, aww!

Afternic was a bargain, but somebody overpaid for nq.com in my opinion.

I can't believe proproject.com went for 60K Its selling a product that they just could've given a different name and been just as successful. Anyone have any additional info on this one?

fees arent $6750.

and

fees are only 10% which = $2700.

So if you refered the buyer you would get half of that.

its funny.

Quite a few are scams
