I can't believe Quinstreet would let it pdfzone expire.
But it would sell for 75K is even more confusing

haha I was editing when you quoted I guess.
Yeah I pressed post too soon.

 

[blogspotter]

I don;t know about the trademark. It is a file format, so i am not sure.

No, the company that developed PDFs intentionally did not trademark, or patent the, 'PDF'. That's why its the top / universal business doc format.

Yes, I own several PDF domains.

You have to take “closing prices” with a grain of salt. Many sold domains at godaddy auctions sell to the second or third highest bidders.

Agreed Keith and that's why if you sell something I write it sold, when it closes at an expiry auction, I always say closed at.

And now in another hot thread here Joe Styler said they don't always go to second or third bidder which I just replied to.

Because on Twitter there was a big discussion a few weeks ago and Paul Nicks tweeted:

Aug 21
We go down the list of bidders, if all back out then we let it drop just like a name that no one bids on.

This came up because Fanbase.com closed at $151,000 and people wanted to know what happens if high bidder does not pay?

His response is in line with what I said. Sales do indeed go down the list to second and third. What NameBio reports as a $100k sale could very well be $5k. There is no concrete evidence when reporting sales at godaddy.

But if I am bidding against only one and he started against me at 5 k and drive all the way upto 100K and don't pay, do I still pay 99.5K or 5k as the second highest bidder

Right that's what I said they should always be quoted as closed at, after a certain amount of time you will know if it closed.

$5k

Thanks
I hope the pothead who bid crazy on that CBD domain yesterday fails to pay haha

PDF is the standard in today's printing industry. It can be an end user, like Adobe, Heidelberg, Esko, Afga, etc ... or someone who liked the SEO value:

Domain score: 62 (Great)
Backlinks: 4,225
Reffering domains: 926
.gov & .edu: 52

But is it worth 75 k?
You will get far better RD and Link quality for 3-4 K
