Chinese LLLL.com bubble!?

[freezer]

Is it a somewhat good estimate that
chinese LLLL.com premiums are at at least $1billion value today?
Unlike Number .coms chinese premium LLLL.com boomed in value in a very short period.
Will they hold their value or is it the biggest BUBBLE ever seen in domains?

Share your thoughts please

Guys i'm a bit in a shock, posted the list of available chinese premium letter LLLL.com's today on twitter, there was only 31 of them left on Godaddy where priced below $1000.

And just two minutes ago I made new list, and only 12 domains left, lowest is priced $990. Someone bought or moved domains out. Hopefully tomorrow I will publish update as I did here before.
Here is last 12 domains:

qltr.com 999 USD
yltr.com 999 USD
drbx.com 999 USD
nhxk.com 999 USD
fyhm.com 999 USD
xlpn.com 999 USD
lblq.com 999 USD
qtxn.com 997 USD
nzhf.com 996 USD
ndkp.com 995 USD
twyr.com 995 USD
dqtn.com 990 USD

Prices are increasing everyday. I brought just now a triple premium double repeated one( not chinese premium).

Another interesting question that pops up in mind: What will be the fate of non-chinese LLLL, bubble or no bubble. Would their price too follow their big brother, and in case of bubble burst, would they too suffer or will be further established?

I received an offer for an QTRP.com on Sedo and pushed it to auction. It has reached 950 now. And only two more days left.

There are 5 bidders.. So something is happening. Bubble or not, will wait and see.

Gentlemen, there's some good news indeed.
When spammer updates his prices you know they moved up everywhere too.
You don't need to be a rice farmer to see that

It is easy to forget that the LLLL.com market is tied to the other short domain markets, in particular LL and LLL. The LL.com market is going nuts at the moment, with long held domains being bought from corporations that had no reason to sell except that the price offered was so high.

The LLL.com market seems to be steady, with the new values holding but not increasing.

More or less the same people buy in all 3 markets. The masses only accepted LLLLs recently, although there were Chinese buyers all along. That explains the swift price rise. LLLL and LLL will find and keep a price ratio.

So this run-up is the continuation of a several-year trend of Chinese investors moving into short domains. I do not expect them to leave any time soon. I don't think it is a bubble yet, but if these gains get much publicity a new wave of noob speculators could take us to the moon --- until they tire of it. But that would mean prices waaaaaay beyond today.

I see several following quite closely and others trailing behind, but I am confident the "Western" 4L market will continue to remain robust.

In fact, I just scanned eBay for 4L auctions and was very surprised to see several names with the dreaded "V" hitting near and even above the $250 price level.

Fast Times At Domain High :P

The rising tide raises all boats. I, too, think that even names with the less desirable letters will continue to do well.

Has this been verified? Anyone know who exactly is buying up all the Chinese premiums? Is it a bunch of individual domainers/speculators (like all of us) or is it just a few larger operations? This would make a big difference for where prices may go from here.

[equity78]

@MR PACKER Do you believe they won't really pay or are you insulted by $37,000 ?

 

[gotasale]

of course they won't really pay, I have got the same spam

 

[andom]

So what's the reason behind sending these? They could make a reasonable offer if they just want to gather your emails.

Things change so fast, that only one chinese premium LLLL.com is left below $1000 price range on Godaddy (BRMJ,com)

Also interesting here is that the total number of CP on Godaddy is decreasing at an increasing rate, from 2.5 per day a month ago to 23.5 per day now.

Update:
There is a lot of movement now in $1000 - $1999 price range, CP count is squeezed from 270 to 241.

 

[McKay Taylor]

yeah ... a lot of money was wasted on that assumption. I guess one day "v" will be the most premium letter ever!

You can take into account that using a Chinese keyboard of pinyin to characters that v actually represents ü so lü,lüe, nü, nüe (pinyin) is really lv, lve, nv, nve so v could eventually become more valuable in the Chinese markets. Especially if the value of vowel free premiums continues to inflate at the current rate.

 

[Jen-Sin]

Which Chinese keyword?

 

[Dominic Belley]

It is simply amazing how prices climb.
Next Friday, there will be no chinese premium available below 2K.
