ads.com sold?

[MultiReg]

This great three letter domain was listed for sale ($450,000) at greatdomains. It's now listed as sold....

I'd imagine someone probably bought it, then.

Let's not jump to conclusions

May be the owner didn't want to sell that domain any more.

 

[Chris Matthers]

Wow thats a lot of Money!

It's one of the top ten 3 letter dot coms and worth a lot more IMHO.

Ï agree. History is not as short as you sometimes think, and will tell....

OMG, what a huge mistake. You could get a better domain with so much less money.

Sure, there are many good domains for MUCH cheaper. But to the right person, this domain could be worth a lot MORE in the future (we're talking $1M+).

It looks like DotComAgency.com bought the domain, as http://www.ads.com/ has now changed from a "for sale" page to their homepage.

If I had half a million dollars, I may have bought this domain at this price as well.

I would pay 100K MAX

Did you know that the name www.jobs.com sold for $800,000.00?

Darn... rich people....

 

[MultiReg]

Yes, jobs.com was sold in early 2002 to the guys behind monster.com. Some people considered the $800 k deal as a bargain

Agreed.

ads.com now has been transferred to it's new owner. I'll try post a story on it (if I only manage to figure out the final sales price...)

We're sorry to announce that the Ads.com service is no longer available. Unfortunately, we weren't able to raise the funding necessary to continue providing the service. You may be able to find the ad you're looking for on the advertiser's own... http://www.ads.com/

It's now going to : http://www.trafficagency.com/

i just understand how people can pay so much for just a domain name. I would be feeding the needy instead if I had that amount of cash.

 

[Matt]

lol...I'd be on my speedboat, drinking a beer with a model ...ahem..cant say that here

 

[NameCaster]

I think the buyer got a deal!
