I have more information regarding the recent sale of We.com that you may all find interesting. As I reported last week, We.com recently changed hands, and at the time I speculated that the buyer was probably Chinese. I can now confirm that the buyer is Chinese, and Sedo did broker the deal using a Chinese broker (according to a source familiar with the deal).
The sales price of We.com has never been publicly revealed, but the seller of We.com has stated that the brokerage fee was "around $1m", which would bring the sales price of We.com to anywhere between $8m and $10m - meaning it would be one of the biggest domain sales ever.
We.com remains under privacy at Ename.com, a popular Chinese domain registrar, and the domain itself resolves to an Under Construction page. Plans for the domain name are unknown at this point.
Update on Aug 5, 2015: WE.com Sales Price was $8 Million. Buyer Revealed.
