NamesCon Auction ran long, biggest winners were .com and .club say what you want and I don't own any and they are not an advertiser on my blogs, but .Club sells a lot of domains better than any other registry.

Top 3 Sales:

HomeCare.com $350,000
Wine.Club $140,000
CarAuctions.com $90,000

HomeCare.com supposedly sold during pre bid (not duing live auction) with reserve being met?

The only reason it looks like .Club sells a lot of domains is because they are not holding back all the good names like all the other registries. They are putting out all their good names for sale so they can make money to keep the doors open and create a marketing buzz.

I don't think they have deep pockets like everyone else so they can't hold onto all the good names. Sell Sell Sell is their strategy.

They look like superstars when they sell a name for a hundred grand even though they are only getting paid 10 grand a year for that name. It's just good marketing. Those outside the industry don't know those details so it comes off looking better then it really is.

Pre Auction Todd they said they are going to be spending in the seven figures on marketing. The name of the game is to sell and they do it better than their competition so far, that may change.

Yes, sold met reserve and will be apart of the auction results.

@hookbox I am not related to the dot CLUB folks in anyway..

However they have held back a lot of names like all other registry's and also have given a few to investors, relatives etc to resell...such insider trading would be deemed illegal in any other industry.

Also FYI - "They look like superstars when they sell a name for a hundred grand even though they are only getting paid 10 grand a year for that name."

Only Coffee.CLUB and Vegas.CLUB were part of Startup.CLUB structure, Wine.CLUB was not

Ray they do it better so far because they are the only ones actively selling their names. Their marketing also stands out more than all the others because they have only one string not hundreds. Everybody else has to spread the wealth amongst many extensions but .Club doesn't have to. They can throw all their dollars at only one extension and make it look bigger and better than everybody else which in turn sells names and puts them in the limelight.

As for the Wine.Club sale I am looking forward to seeing the details. Personally you would have to be drunk to pay 140 grand for Wine.Club

I confirmed with Michael Berkens and Monte Cahn straight cash buyer, not the start up initiative like Coffee.club and Vegas.club.

Where was uniregistry in this auction ? Frank needs to step it up imo. You are right Hookbox they have just the one baby to take care of Dot Club.

Daniel Negari (Dot XYZ) said before the auction started he was selling all his .coms because .xyz was taking over. Spending $5 million on marketing.

I think the LL.net's went kinda cheap myself. Overall some good sales in there, and some I'm surprised about!

Of course Daniel Negari is going to say he is selling all his doctoms. He would be stupid to say otherwise. I would love to see where that so called 5 million in marketing is going. What he's going to buy some more purple morphsuits and put his name on it. 5 million in marketing. Yeah right!

Oops! Just posted this in the wrong thread...

Compassion.Club appears to be available for $1,725 plus $14.99 renewal. Seems that could be of value to the right Michigander or other medical marijuana developer.

It was fun watching the auction and live tweeting from home, but Whew! It was a long one. Toward the end, we found ourselves nodding off to the constant hum of the auctioneer. Did they end up keeping the bar open?

I see that most of the no reserve auctions had the owners losing major amounts money... much less than they paid in the past, and it's the case for multiple domains on the list.

I guess that's what happens when you risk it with no reserve sometimes

I think Mike knew he overpaid for Sexeducation.com, he told me you don't win everyone, He has a big sale this year 345.com for $800,000 and can use the loss to offset some of the gain. Is it ideal ? No, but $23,000 is better than never selling it waiting for $120,000 again.

Very true, however Adam sold Mimes.com for $2200 and I believe that's a big loss. The domain has much more potential in my view, in fact I once wanted to buy that name myself for 5 figures for my own project but ended up changing plans.

I watched the auction last night and was finally able to go through my notes today. Many say they are impressed with the GTLD sale prices but you always have to analyze all of the information before coming to a conclusion.

My conclusion is that it only takes a few bidders to make the numbers look better than they really are. A couple of guys who could possibly be clueless at what they are purchasing fudges the numbers in a big way. Look at the bidding history below and you decide for yourself. I missed a few due to breaks etc...

All I can say is don't always believe the hype until you really see what is going on.

I was surprised that Adam let them go no reserve over the last year he wanted big xx,xxx to xxx,xxx. He is starting a bunch of new businesses maybe wanted the capital for the new projects.
