Bullion-related domains in case of gold & silver demand skyrocketing

A few month ago I decided to reg some bullion-related domains, because I think there is a possibility of precious metal demand going way higher than it is today, like the gold craze of 1979-1980.

So this is what I got:

In case of shortages and companies wanting emphasize availability of the product, I have BullionInStock.com and SilverInStock.com and some other variations.

In case of local bullion dealers getting big amount of business I got many [%location%]bullion.coms

And some others.

My question is do you think demand for bullion-related domains would mimic demand for bullion itself? On one hand bullion is not a new booming thing like drones or VR, and bullion trading is a long established business, on the other it hasn't been that mainstream like it was in 1979-80 (when there were no domain names).

P.S. If you don't think demand for precious metals will rise, it's fine, it may, it may not. The domains are my bet it does. The question is about domain demand in a scenario when it does rise dramatically.

33S - So here's my input. I've been trying to snag as many good bullion and precious metals related domains as possible. Demand is going up for good silver and gold domains like crazy. Just a few weeks ago a huge gold dealer, by the name of Rob Halliday-Stein, acquired Gold.co.uk for ยฃ600,000. Now, when you translate that to USD, that's well over $900,000.

People seem to be getting desperate because they're trying to register what they can get they hands on and even domains plagued with hyphens and numbers are getting a lot of attention mainly because all of the good stuff is taken. Imagine websites like CashforGold.com & Cash4Gold.com which are both really easy to find, easy to remember, and it's what these businesses are using to target their audience. Best of all, it looks and feel legit. Their goal is to buy and sell silver and gold.

There's a lot of competition out there and they all promise the same thing (i.e. highest price paid for silver & gold, etc) just like how all web designers promises you first page rank on Google. They have to give a look and feel of security, reliability, and quick payout because at the end that's what really matters when people are selling old unwanted silver and gold jewelry, coins, silverware, flatware, centerpieces, etc.

There was a domain I wish I could have acquired but it quickly rose to over $3,500 in auction. I was shocked because the domain was not all that prestigious. It was cool and catchy. The seller now has it for sale at a $4,500 price tag, which isn't bad. I am thinking about acquiring it. I would use it as a landing page or something.

Keep in mind that there are other domains that sold for a lot of money. JMBullion and other precious metals dealers have been buying up good domains like crazy. I don't remember the name but I think JMBullion purchased a .COM name (two words) with a hyphen for over $25,000.

I had a list of other precious metals domains that sold for thousands but these are some of the ones I remember.

Silver.com $875,000 (purchased by JMbullion)
Silvercoins.com $100,000 (private sale)

I personally do not register gTLD's but don't knock others who do.
There are a ton, and I do mean a TON, of bullion & cash for gold dealers in Europe, Africa, Russia, Asia, North & South America. The market is huge. Silver & Gold are what people turn to when faith is lost in their government, stock market scares, devalued currencies, protection against inflation, etc. I know I am all over the place with this but there's a lot of information to sort through when considering the precious metals field as a niche for domains.
