discuss Dan.com sales

[doofer]

Anybody know if there is a list of Dan.com sales anywhere !? None of the sales show on Namebio or dnpric.es.

If such list exists than it will nice to know.
If not, it will be great if Dan could publish it periodically.
This could be then visible on Namebio like others.

Neither Afternic nor DAN report sales to NameBio. Some individual ones are reported by the seller or buyer. Also most Sedo ones under $2000 (unless an auction) are not reported, and for Dynadot only the auction ones are reported I believe. Epik sales are not reported unless the seller or buyer reports them. Nor are Efty sales unless they are individually reported. The brandable marketplaces in some cases report total numbers but not individual sales. So it is not unique to DAN, but probably at least 80% of sales are not reported from a variety of venues.

DAN do report through their website their total volume and that is listed as more than $100 million in total. From domains you just missed (near bottom of the DAN homepage) you can see names, but not prices, of some recently sold names on their platform. I guess by watching this carefully you could estimate the number of sales.

Another potentially useful source of information is to watch the Report Completed Domain Sales thread and see where NamePros members are reporting their sales having happened. It is self-reported, and a subset of NamePros members only, but may be useful intelligence.
