.mobi Auction watch: Interesting 2 hours ahead

Brad|E · 02-19-2007, 07:16 AM

The next two hours show some interesting .mobi auctions closing on Sedo, including:

SouthKorea (currently at $3400)
NorthKorea
Burma
Serbia

13 total set to close in about 1hr 45 min.

For the record, none of these domains are mine.

SouthKorea will be interesting indeed.

Is Burma even a country anymore? I thought they officially changed the name to Myanmar many years ago.

domain999 · 02-19-2007, 08:01 AM

Since 1989 the military authorities in Burma have promoted the name Myanmar as a conventional name for their state; this decision was not approved by any sitting legislature in Burma, and the US Government did not adopt the name.

So yes, it's still Burma.

Brad|E · 02-19-2007, 08:12 AM

Thanks for the clarification domain999.

2 minutes remaining

South Korea: 3400

dag · 02-19-2007, 09:01 AM

Wow...most interesting in that there weren't any bids at the end!

Kind of like a reverse auction -- all the excitement happened early on...

Brad|E · 02-19-2007, 09:02 AM

I didn't see the closing price for North Korea...anyone?

$3400

yoyosean · 02-19-2007, 09:04 AM

i think it was $340. Pretty disappointing prices IMHO for all.

Brad|E · 02-19-2007, 09:04 AM

That was for South Korea. North Korea was at ~340 before I began watching S. Korea exclusively.

Oops, yes, sorry...I thought he was asking about SK.

Didn't notice North Korea either, as it turns out...

Brad|E · 02-19-2007, 09:18 AM

sexsearch extended: 1100 with 9 min.

meanwhile, battle between bidder 5 and 6 for Burma. 400 with 5 min. Lots of late bidding.

domain999 · 02-19-2007, 09:22 AM

northkorea went for $340
southkorea went for $3400

Brad|E · 02-19-2007, 09:22 AM

New bidder enters the picture (one of NamePros own?) on Burma: 420

Edit: now 575.

A|ien · 02-19-2007, 09:26 AM

Great stuff! Better than watching TV with auction activity!

Pred · 02-19-2007, 09:27 AM

i was in until 400
dropped out after that. great name, but myanmar is the official name, so it's not a pure country name
good luck, a couple are interested, so perfect auction conditions

Brad|E · 02-19-2007, 09:27 AM

both auctions getting really interesting.

I'm surprised SouthKorea went so low.

domain999 · 02-19-2007, 09:30 AM

CIA says it's Burma, so take it up with them

Brad|E · 02-19-2007, 09:36 AM

Sexsearch closes at 1350
Burma closes at 650 (to late entrant, bidder 7)

domain999 · 02-19-2007, 09:37 AM

wow, thanks for the bids and great comments everyone, my first and probably last mobi auction, was a blast
