coffee.org $100,000 & 248.com $175,000 SOLD!

[italiandragon]

today Sedo reports 2 sales:

coffee.org $100,000

248.com $175,000

And you wonder why I love short domains?

 

[bondjpf]

Wow!
Wish i had those :tu:

 

[snoop]

Both sounds like outlier enduser sales. Wouldn't have described coffee.org as a "short" domain.

Wondering if you get paid to always be my contrarian.

In my brain "Coffee" is a short domain. No one asks you to agree with me.

 

[htmlindex]

Wow, great sales of those names! I would think that Coffee.org would be an enduser at that price.

 

[bmugford]

I am pretty sure both of those are end users. I can't see a reseller paying these prices for either.

LMAO! :lol:

 

[soggyindo]

short or long, coffee is a great clean product name.

i couldn't get an appraisal on MailingTubes.org this week (obviously a completely different league) but product .orgs are on their way up IMO

 

[dgridley]

Hm, coffee is definitely a great keyword.. an .org might be useful for a trade organization but that's a great price!

 

[mjnels]

coffee didnt sell for the price it did because its a short domain. that is wishful thinking.

 

[wurkanimal]

Great domain names at very good prices!

 

[worldstar]

if 248.com worth $175,000, then 247.com and 24-7.com should worth $575,000 :gn:

:sold:

 

[Pred]

whois shows the buyer/owner of 248.com for $175k is the same owner/buyer of 249.com last week on dnjournal for $92k

aspenedge.com

wish he would buy my NNN.com

 

[Hurley4540]

These were great sales :s

 

[Pred]

coffee.org has an alexa of 21k too which is not to be sneezed at, i guess he must have taken old site down

Wow, great sales of those names! I would think that Coffee.org would be an enduser at that price.

I would, as well ... it's a great GENERIC domain name, and I see it's use as Dave suggests above! :gl: :gn:

Oh that`s right.

Well, if you disagree than coffee.org is better than:

MyBeautifulItalianCoffee.com

than you may not understand what I meant.

To confuse short domains with one-word domains is an error. For example, COMPUTER.com sold for $2 million. If you were to sell this based entirely on it having 8 mainly-premium letters then it wouldn't even be worth reg fee.

if 248.com worth $175,000, then 247.com and 24-7.com should worth $575,000 :gn:

It isn't worth $175,000, realistically at auction this is the type of name that would get 20-30k.
