Guta listings

[Joe70]

Long time lurker, first time poster. Thanks to all for the informative site.

Guta has done some big sales and always has a ton of domains listed for sale, but they don’t get mentioned here all that much. When domain listings disappear from their site — i.e., suddenly return a “Not found” error — does that usually indicate a sale, or just that their brokerage agreement expired? I know it can take a while between reaching a sales agreement and closing of the sale, but I’m not familiar with Guta’s practices. Thanks.

Never heard of it so I'm not much help here.

Guta.com?

 

[Joe70]

Yes, Guta.com. Seems like they’re mostly targeted toward the Asian market. Not sure if their sales typically get listed/attention here.

They have some great domains and from the site the sold some gems too.

Now I see why, it's a foreign language site for me.

Seems like a lot of domain owners let them try to broker sales to the Asian market, but the entire site is available in English. They have a huge collection of LLLs and others, but I hardly ever see any sales credited to them, so I don’t know if a disappearing listing generally means a sale or just the end of a brokerage period.

Not sure. Some nice names there either way.

Have they made public any of their sales?

 

[Joe70]

They have a few prior sales listed on their site and a few have been discussed here, but Guta almost never shows up in the LLL sales reports here. I don’t know if that means people aren’t tracking their sales or if they just don’t sell many.

Some are mentioned in DNJ.

Some of the big names they have brokered are listed on this page on their site (sorry it's in Chinese): https://www.guta.com/success/.

The latest one that I know of is OFO.com owned by Nat Cohen and sold to Chinese bike sharing startup OFO for US$1m+. Details at http://www.dnjournal.com/archive/domainsales/2017/20170503.htm
