INSANE .mobi sales at TRAFFIC Conference

gericsb · 11-02-2006, 05:43 PM

Did anyone see the insane prices paid for some generic .mobi's at the recent traffic conference?

I think (and I am just doing this from memory) but flowers.mobi went for 200k (bought by Rick Schwartz I think)

fun.mobi went for 100K (if I recall)

I had NO idea .mobi's were going for so much. I have quite a few generic.mobi's listed on tdnam and Sedo for like 500 bucks apiece and have gotten zero interest. I need to contact some big players right away. You all might be advised to do the same if you have a collection of generic.mobi's (Didnt someone on this board have tickets.mobi?) I think you should be able to get mid-high xxx,xxx based on these recent sales for that domain assuming you can contact the ight people)

Maybe I should have gone to the conference (I might have been able to retire!) Sheesh!

Ya, everyone knows about it. There has been few threads about it too.

Were you away or something ?

This is old news now. I like mobi, but just because two generic mobi names sold for 6 figures doesnt mean all generic mobi names are worth that much. This is still a brand new extension and its going to take time to rise in value.
