That's one gold mine out there....

Well, Virtual-Network.com of Switzerland bought it from Rick Latona in the summer of 2007 for $650,000. If it gets no more bids, after Sedo's commission the company will have lost about $289,000 on the deal.

Really good numeric domains... 22.com or 55.com ...
I imagine them as a youth or senior portal.

usa666 · 02-03-2009, 09:06 AM

ya, some nice domains there.

Good Luck

Picsou.com · 02-03-2009, 01:24 PM

Few of these domains are in auctions now :

22.com
tai.com
Eob.com
Wja.com

Without reserve price :-)

Business is funny only with fun !

amr_100 · 02-03-2009, 01:43 PM

Why are you selling all this good names at one time ?!!

Picsou.com · 02-03-2009, 02:02 PM

Because I'm crazy and need fun :-)

We have hundreds of domains like this, so the risk is not huge.

It's just pure fun :-)))

amr_100 · 02-03-2009, 02:18 PM

crazy and need fun

?

i hope you are the real owner for this names .because i am bidding on one name from the list .

rumbo · 02-03-2009, 03:32 PM

Crazy and need fun..... awesome tagline

DNabc · 02-04-2009, 01:23 AM

You have no reserve but your counter offer price acts as one. If to start the auction we need to offer 400,000 euros or something like that...

I wish you the best of luck, it's out, out, out of my budget

***EG.domains*** · 02-04-2009, 04:29 AM

Auction ended .. no more bids received.

Winning bid: 302,500 EUR ($388,682)

owntype · 02-04-2009, 04:37 AM

A net loss of $260,000 for fun? awesome!

(still depends on if the winner bidder pays)

As your crazy can I have 22.com for free........ it would be pure fun

seank · 02-04-2009, 01:05 PM

all these ended?

Picsou.com · 02-05-2009, 02:12 AM

Yes, a nice loss on Dollars.com !

This one, not for fun. We did a mistake, we had a project and never developed it.

You know, we are in average loosing money on 50% of our investments. The essential is to gain more than we lose. I firmly believe that we shall give no emotion / affectivity to our domains and accept to cut losses. We are making very strong profits since 12 years now and have learned to accept failure... with fun and pleasure :-)))
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=554819

Regarding.com 22.com, I am confident we will close quite high, despite the crisis. It's a very valuable domain and a good test for the market. It will however be difficult for US buyers to have it, chinese are fighting for it and currently have much more money.

All the best,

Stephane

goodkarmaco · 02-05-2009, 02:57 AM

thks for sharing this. Since I have always loved dollars this domain sale makes me green with envy. Wonder if pennies is available ha.

bob nobby · 02-05-2009, 07:39 PM

Very interesting. I think a few years ago this would have got at least 1 million

Domo Sapiens · 02-08-2009, 07:13 AM

Stephane:
It's very refreshing to see somebody with a realistic approach that also has a great attitude (rare combination) , in times when most people all they talk is "Doom and Gloom"... you are concentrated in making things happen.
You only fail when you fail to try.
Cheers.
Domo.

Stephane,
Thanks for this -
Besides auctions, does anyone know how to alert Chinese investors to great domains for sale?

DNabc · 02-11-2009, 10:32 AM

I also have some good NNNN and NNNNN with chinese and korean traffic

Jessica_ph · 02-17-2009, 10:12 PM

Well, I had fun reading this thread, especially that it's talking about dollars. I want some!

Indeed. Great attitude amidst setbacks and losses is the key in life. It's called optimism, and we all need it badly in these hard times.
