.uk .UK domain name release

[Psychedelic.us]

Is anyone registering .UK domains? They opened registration for anyone and there's a bunch of great one-word domains up for grabs. I haven't heard much about this extension on this forum and wanted to know all of your take.

UK residents already owning the .CO.UK extension received first dibs of its equivalent but now it's open registration. These .UK names seems to be much more better and catchy than .co.uk, but we'll see how things go. I suppose it's still too early to say.

There's still many great domains up for grab.

So I went looking back to this thread from over two years ago when members were speculating over the future of .co.uk compared to .uk.
Now that .uk is released to public, I’d love to hear what you all think will be happening with .uk vs. co.uk in two years from now. Have opinions changed?

probably best to go to the thread below if you want to respond.

Room/ uk...........Maybe £600 to £1,500 ? At a guess

Thanks.
Me hoping that UK selfdriving industry will prosper (it is doing pretty good) and that co.uk will decrease and .UK will increase.
I will sit on those for a couple of years and see what happens.
Have you gotten any offer on a .uk yet?

Yes i have but most of my offers are on co.uk

If you see such record in WHOIS...

Data validation:
Nominet was not able to match the registrant's name and/or address against a 3rd party source

Don't forget to validate your registrant details with your registrar - or after 30 days your domains will be suspended.

Doesn't look promising to me as per my experience in the UK space. As of now, 3L, and 1 - word .uk might have some chance in resale. Remaining ones would take a long time to see the light of the day. That's just my opinion though.

There is no reserve.

 

[platey]

There is no reserve.

I'd have swapped you something like

Rooms cleaned. Com

For

Room. uk

But as you know how to get an account on

DL etc can you show me how as they don't recognise my free email address so I can't list my. uk on a uk Auction website etc

Room will be suspended soon...
According to WHOIS - registrant data wasn't validated.
