.tv Sedo 'Around the world in 7 days'

[mckennaronnie]

I noticed Sedo are auctioning off a bunch of top notch .com & .net & odd .info Geo's & travel related domains from Feb 13 - 20.
Link to Sedo auction with domain list here

Ok i know right now some/many of you will be screaming 'What the F@ck does this have to do with .tv!'
Well the reason i posted it was that members here own many of .tv versions of the domains being auctioned & therefore it could be an interesting way to observe .tv's value holds up against any that sell in this auction.
One of the 1st domains that interested me:

Motels.info, Guide price 20,000 - 49,999 USD
Johntv bough Motels.tv for something like $5k if my memory serves me right, i am sure he will be interested if the .info would sell for big bucks. Surely over time we can expect .tv's to sell for more than .infos?

If the mods think this is not .tv related then of course remove, personally i see it as an interesting opportunity to observe how some of domains we have owned,bought , sold are worth in other extensions and what/if these sales mean anything to the value of our .tv's.

Thanks for the post (rep added), this is something I will be definetely interested in as I rate .tv already now at the same level (or higher) then .info, especially if it's non-premium.

Motels.mobi sold lately for $47,000, interesting to see what the .info version will do.

Why did not Sedo inform about the auction before?
I have an account at Sedo and I have very nice geo names, which could be in this auction list.
But how to apply?

You made a great move when you bought Motels.tv & i am certain you will be rewarded by a massive ROI whenever you sell. IMHO Motels.tv is a better domain than Motels.info & is a whole lot easier to brand/market so in the long run i would expect you to get more than the .info
I can remember when you bought Motels.tv and many (including me) did not fully appreciate the potential and thought of it with the view "What do Motels have to do with TV, Video content?"
You were brave to pay what you did in those days when everything felt a little risky but sometimes the brave are the best rewarded & in this occasion i am sure you will be well rewarded.

I have No idea how you apply or how Sedo chose which names to enter, the only reason i know about this auction is that details of it keep flashing around the right hand side of the Sedo website.

It is a shame no .tv's are in this auction but If there is a similar Auction in a years time then i bet a few of the NP .tv forum have names entered.
Does anyone else own a .tv version of any domains entered in this auction?

good question

If you have Geo's that you would of wanted listed theni would Email Sedo asap, personally i would not put any of my .tv's in there yet as i dont think prices would be great for .tv's but i may be wrong.
This year i will sit & watch how the .com's, .net's & .info's sell & maybe next year i will put Paraguay.tv into this auction (if its on every year)

Let's call it around the world due to low clicks they pay. Lol.

Sorry. Had to come out.

With the .tv holders well on sales.

I am bringing my names out of sedo right now.

Only talking sedo not sedo pro.

Either way good luck everyone.

Cheers
