Each domain is unique regardless of extension, so no guiding can be used, particularly on an extension like mobi that is still wet behind the ears. I would venture a guess in the range of $60k though, hopefully a lot more. Obviously the .com owner will want to bag & has deep pockets, a secondary motivated enduser will make the price a stack higher. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/dot-mobi/328973-scores-mobi.html I would like to see the .com owner bag it. It would get developed & would send a message to .com owners...'come & get me'! but with your cheque book! lol | ||||

| Hard to guess on this without having seen the pool of names. Ultimately in these settings it is all about who is in the room, the caliber of the competing inventory, when it comes up for bid and what the action was like before it. I'll venture lower than most at around $30k. |

I have always maintained that certain mobile keywords are going to do very well. Scores.mobi is a perfect example. I won't be suprised if this names hits $xxx,xxx as anyone with gambling or sports will want this. Getting scores via mobile seems like a near perfect fit. Scores.com went for 1.2 million and I see no reason why the .mobi can't do well. Comparitively speaking it's a better name than Flowers.com for mobile application and profitability yet it is very unlikely to go over the $200k mark imho. Pizza.mobi was $23k (??) and that imho is a great mobi applicable name. EVERYONE orders Pizza...and some nearly daily. Flowers are really only a hot commodity a couple times a year. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=328973 We shall see where it goes.

| If scores.mobi will be going for an amount like this , Then you could image the Premium Reserved name Score.mobi will probably go for 1/2 more the amount of scores.mobi .OR scores.mobi is more prouncable than the RESERVED score.mobi and Score.mobi will be lower or almost same as scores.mobi ? If i imagine That Scores.mobi went for xx,xxx The reserved going for xxx,xxx in 5 years for now , then The Dot com will be for 1.2m x 5 = 6 Million US $ .... OR they Reselling at 2- 3 times the amount they went for ? Scores.mobi is parked on sedo , and has 5 offers on it . People please Explain : Why are domains like securitycamera.mobi and securitycameras.mobi Are In the Reserved list and why not Scores.mobi in the Reserve list as well ? Did this person get the name on registration ? OR paid a premium amount ?

????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=328973 Other names like stocks.mobi, pay.mobi, girls.mobi, etc are the result of failed TM names being thrown back in the name pool.

 | For me, it would be hard to imagine that if Scores.com was purchased for $1.18 million ... that the Buyer, if they truly believed in the future of the .MOBI extension, wouldn't express some serious interest in securing the domain name, IMHO.  ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=328973 Thus, here, I'm going up to 2% of the .COM purchase price for this domain name ... for the same entity that purchased the .COM. If another party acquires it for less or just thereabouts, than I guess I'd like to know why there wasn't a more serious interest on the part of the .COM owner's, and if they truly believed in the future viablility of the .MOBI extension, in my view.  Just my two sense. -Jeff
