new gTLD 1st SALE - $1,500 for .XYZ

[Chris Rice]

I just made a sale for an .XYZ domain on Uniregistry for $1,500 USD. It's one of the first names in my portfolio but is also used as a last name.

I enabled Uniregistry to share the info so it should show up on NameBio soon.

Great! There is hope for every extension if the things go right and the domain is good. Wondering what was your domain. Keep us updated.

Did you park it on uni ? or just list ?

 

[Mahouni]

Congrats on the sale!

Yes, please clarify if it was through UniRegistry Marketplace or a lander/inquiry form.

That's fantastic Chris! Way to go!!

Congratulations!

.XYZ is still selling. I have sold about 20 myself in total with the average price is about $500. I only have 3 sales above $1000, so I think $1200 is great, even for a popular one-word-name.

Congrats!

I would just add my congratulations, Chris!

Getting that price for any .xyz is a great accomplishment, and early in your domain investing experience makes it even more impressive. If there are details you can share about how you promoted it, that would be of interest to many I am sure.

Do you invest mainly in .xyz, or did this end up being one of the few you hold?

I see that web.xyz sold for $1550 on Flippa (https://namebio.com/web.xyz) so it's been a big week for .xyz (assuming that is a different sale).

At the same time, $1550 is horrible for a super premium keyword such as "web", also compared to the sales 2 years ago, so .XYZ prices are obviously down.

Web.xyz might be domainer to domainer sale.

Web.xyz might be domainer to domainer sale.

I guess so. I have sold "much" worse ones to domainers for almost that amount.

Look at the renewal fee, that's why.

It was a different name. I will update this thread and add more information soon.
