529.us sold at sedo for $500

bit high for a reseller buy, bit low for an end user buy, anyone else has opinions

its a good thing to get more sales in the .us extension none the less

i know what you're saying...

It's selling price is kinda in no mans land...

I thought it may have been a US area code but its not, as far as I can tell.

So, by deduction, Steve must be right. It looks like a decent price in that context.

Looks like a good solid price to me...Sadly it seems that the LLL.us and NNN.us markets are slowing down in their growth quite a bit recently though.

It was bound to happen... initial investment followed by a reseller rush to purchase as the domains gained in value, fueling itself in the meantime. Now it's settled again... time to wait and hold on to them.

ripley.

I sold that one too cheap a couple months ago (par for the course on my sales). Congrats on the quick profit though.

529.us domain could be used for a college savings plan website

I thought it may have been a US area code but its not, as far as I can tell. ... It looks like a decent price in that context.

I think it is more likely that the buyer had this use in mind: "Congress created these types of tax-advantaged plans in 1996 under Section 529 of the Internal Revenue Code. These plans, sometimes called 529 Plans, offer tax-deferred earnings growth and other tax advantages. State-sponsored education savings programs also let you invest larger sums of money than other educationsavings methods." quote from Charles Schwab website.

A small profit for the seller and a great buy for the buyer if the 529 plan use is their intent. Would expect much higher prices for a .us name like this down the road.

It is nice to see a case where an NNN name changes hands because it actually means something instead of just being an NNN.anything for NNN's sake.

Hmm, wonder if there's a section 537 It's the only nnn.us I own.
