Cate, just closed, Ten.tv for $7,500. The other name Track.tv in escrow, but losing hope, buyer has gone quiet the last few days.
Haha, congrats to you, Michael!
Good to see someone made money with this one. A bit of history on the domain: This name sold numerous times in the past. I bought it for $650 in dec. 2010 on a chinese auction site and resold it within a few weeks for $468 - after enduser marketing turned up no buyers. I didn't want to pay the renewal on it - the renewal fee was somewhere $x,xxx per year at the time, as the .TV registry still did 'premium' renewals on 'premium' domains. Don't remember the exact amount. As I recall, some .tv's had $xxx,xxx yearly renewals or even higher!
The new owner dropped the domain, obviously for the same reason that I sold it at a loss - $xxxx renewals turn a cheap domain into an expensive one very quickly.
The .tv registry quit the premium renewal scheme a (very short) while later, I believe early 2011 or 2012. Michael caught it, the premium renewal worn off after the domain dropped which made the domain a lot more attractive.
Now before all of you kids run off to buy .TV domains:
