-Estibot question-

can these amounts alone change generalized estimates from 1-1.5% to 2-3%?
-of course every domain is special, ext related, etc etc-

I just ran these domains through the current version of the v2 bulk tool. The sum total of v2 valuations was: USD 892,340. The actual total amount was $818,476. Pretty close. There was variability in individual domains, as always:

Here's the rundown of the bulk appraisal compared to the real sales (appraisal first number, sale second)

As these sales are entered into the database, the .mobi algorithm will be updated and likely there will be an effect. I don't know how big that effect will be, but it looks like the v2 algo is getting pretty close to reality now.

Congrats to .mobi owners, good news for the market.

Thanks-
Josh

Considering the circumstances (my TM on this phrase will not be enforced for now) I would say it's somewhere between very impressive and phenomenal. IMHO, of course.

More than I expected (but a LOT less than many here predicted), yet until we know who the Buyer's are and what their specific plans are for development (as well as mTLD ensuring and enforcing that development) ... and as well as the completed, final dispositions from the auctions, it's worth keeping in mind - for perspective - that one SINGLE domain, Loans.com, sold for $3,000,000 in year 2000, IMHO.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=380851

Did Loans.com have development restrictions? Nope.
Do we know the exact extent to which these Sedo .MOBI auctions Rules For Development will be enforced? Nope.
How much did Loans.mobi sell for in 2007, and to whom?
1%.

Just a few thoughts, IMHO.

Jeff, as the stock market demonstrates every day, uncertainty in business is often priced worse than bad news.

Righto, and that's why free open markets are, over time, efficient ... but that's not what is occurring here presently, IMHO. This is a niche ... a very brief and narrow market with those being involved in that market (with similar goals and interests) bidding against one another, perhaps having bid together in the past, as well. The point is ... until we know who the Buyer's are and what their specific plans are for development and promotion of these websites - AND perhaps most importantly - the extent to which these Sedo .MOBI auctions Rules For Development will be enforced, at $800,000+, comparatively, it's not quite as impressive at first blush, IMHO.
Sedo and mTLD did well, though!

Just my two sense.

OK, cheap point first: these are not Sedo's rules of course.

But seriously, talking about Sedo: if it wasn't for the amazingly strong spontaneous demand for .mobi keywords, this could very easily have been the perfect storm for .mobi

Do I need to re-state why?

Indeed, who said Jeff is always predictably unoriginal?

P.S. I just tried to find out what Google says fluffing means, and to save time clicked on the Images tab.

Warning: don't do it.

Leave out the "spontaneous" part, and you're on to something ...

I'll give him credit--he can mix it up from time to time. I swear I read a few of his posts earlier this week that didn't have a bit of anti-mobi sentiment in them, and and an eerie calm fleetingly came over me. If we were still debating using quotes from dead people, I'd have to pull this one out from Emerson (mainly because I really like the word "hobgoblin"):

A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds
