Yes. I had 2 sells.
I sold 18VR.com for $10,001.
I also sold a VR+NN.com for $5288 (as in NN representing numbers) When I first posted it I posted "VRNN.com" so some people though it was VRNN all letters but it's VR+Numbers.com. Buyer wanted to stay private but it's not too hard to figure out what the name was only a 100 possibilities.
Fantastic sale
When I first saw this, my first thought was '$40,000 how?' But after a minute or 2 reflecting - 1) It’s an unforgettable name 2) roles of the tongue nicely and 3) the perfect name to build a brand around in the Virtual Reality or Vacation Rentals industry (2 monster industries with money).

The only time you can outbid "first" in a namejet auction is...if he has too pee longer than 4 minutes

First pays for rarity, this is a domainer to domainer type bid, it really doesn't change the market from a end user perspective, they are going to pay what they can afford to pay. Domainers are paying more than end users lately anyways so it really doesn't matter. Chinese are all about patterns, next time a chip hater throws a V in your face, throw this comp in their face.And just like that, my portfolio of VR names goes up in value.. again. I love this business.

If the purchase is FIRST as reported, they are a speculator, The name came on their radar, and they bought it like any of us would hoping to sell it for more down the road.I doubt this was purchased for $40k based purely on being a rare pattern. VFVF.com only sold for $2k in February of this year. Other ABAB patterns for less than $10k this year as well. Enduser or not - future tech names (the good ones) are increasing in value. This purchase (among others) only solidifies that further.
And they can throw all the V's in my face they'd like to.I'll buy the good ones all day.
Aren't all investors speculators?They are a speculator
There is educated investing, and there is speculation. If you have proven sales in a certain niche like many here work, they are making an educated buys.Aren't all investors speculators?

The seller of the domain is no dummy, they own many Chinese friendly domains, this bidding war went in their favor. Facts are facts, hype is hype. The issue with domaining is to many people have got burned on hype lately. Domaining in the aftermarkets is about playing defense, just as much as offense. To much fast, and loose money, and to many re-auctions lately which is never a good sign. It is good for portfolio holders, maybe not so good for flippers, as their risk tolerance is much higher when they have to pay up to acquire, and have less likelyhood of reselling given they have to ask more.
It is no secret FIRST pays for patterns, and short domains. It is right up their alley, they are working with an endless bankroll. It's a good domain but I don't see any big western players fighting, or paying these prices for these domains, they are the sellers in most cases, and I don't blame them.
Aren't all investors speculators?
