One of our favorite investors, Mike Mann, has racked up yet another five-figure sale. Following on from the sales of AnimalsUnited.com for $39,000 and GotBoobs.com for $15,000 is this latest $40,000 sale of a three-word .COM.
The news of the sale was broken by Mike via his Twitter account, where he also shared his acquisition date and price.
According to the tweet, Mike bought the domain name TheGoodWord.com back in 2005 for $350, and after holding it for 11 years, he has sold it for a phenomenal profit.
Turning a $350 acquisition into a $40,000 sale isn't an easy feat, especially for a three-word .COM domain, but Mike seems to be able to produce these sales on a regular basis. As he owns a portfolio of 250,000 names, selling high is a prerequisite for maintaining a large portfolio.
As ever with Mike's sales, the buyer is yet to be revealed. There are no immediate clues as to who the buyer is.
