$85,000 .Com Sale at Sedo Heads New DNJournal Top 20

[Ron Jackson]

The new weekly domain sales report is out at DNJournal.com. A very nice $85,000 .com sale at Sedo heads our new Top 20 chart which also features a pair of strong .co.uk sales and one from Austria's .at extension. It was an especially good week for the country codes with eight of this week's sales high enough to rank among the Year to Date leaders in that category. In addition to the usual standouts like Great Britain's .co.uk and Germany's de, we saw high prices paid for extensions that rarely produce notable sales, including such obscure ccTLDs as .io, .to, .tl and .nu.

The Global Contenders (.net, ,org, .info and .biz) didn't post many high $ sales (only one ranks among the year's Top 50 G.C. sales) but the category still racked up 40 four-figure sales which is a sign of very good health. .Com had a great outing, taking 17 of 20 positions on the Big Board.

"EvidenceEraser.com, sold for $20,000 at Afternic.com", never would have thought of that name being a big seller, but glad somebody did

PBR.com at $35k... that was definitely a frat boy playing on the famous fratbrew

Thanks (For the ump-teenth-millionth time), Duke!

No surprise really. It was bought by a large insurance company by that name that was previously stuck with a 6-letter acronym for their domain name (edicwc.com). To a company like that $85,000 is pocket change.

AutoAuto.at €7,000 = $8,536

Sometimes I'm wondering. Some sales just do not add up. Anything can happen

Earlier, AutoAuto.de went for $14,082 , so it seems as if the autoauto makes sense to europeans. Many "autoauto" extensions are taken, including smaller sites such as autoauto.sk.
