Brandforce Sells Floor.com for $3,144,000
One of the year’s top sales was revealed this week as Brandforce, a “brands as a service” marketplace, sold the domain Floor.com for a price of $3,144,000. If charted by DNJournal, it will rank as the third-largest domain sale of the year, which shows the strength of the premium aftermarket at the moment.
The buyer of the domain is currently unknown, but Floor.com does host a website selling rugs. Will this be the ultimate use for the domain, considering the usage of “floor” as a term in NFTs and cryptocurrency?

DVDs.com: From $300,000 to $10,000
In 2008, when sales of DVDs were rife, the domain DVDs.com sold for $300,000. According to CNBC, DVD sales fell more than 67% between 2011 and 2018, largely thanks to the growing popularity of streaming services such as Netflix.
This week, DVDs.com sold at Sedo for $10,000, a reduction of $290,000 on the domain’s acquisition price in 2008. Was this a bargain for the buyer, or did the seller leave money on the table? Investors are sharing their opinions on this sale here.
