What do people think of

www.london-2018.com

The FIFA World Cup is coming to London in 2018 and this is a great domain to mark the occassion. The .org version sold for 1100 GBP on ebay a few months ago so how much do you think this could sell for?

Input greatly appreciated
Thanks

I don't think that they have yet choosen a venue for the 2018 World Cup, so I think that you may well be jumping the gun on that one.
They have only got as far as South Africa 2010.Also the World Cup will not just be held in London so it will be England 2018, if England is choosen and that is a big IF.

So I don't really see much value in it as far as a World Cup site goes.

In your sales thread you said "I see the .be version went for $25 on here.". It's actually about $14 right now.

why did the .org version go for 1100?

Check it out http://www.london2012.org/en

If the .org of this domain went for $1100, then the .com should go for xx,xxx.

technically it should but not even a sniff of interest. can anyone broker?

If London does win the 2018 world cup, then the name London2018.com, London2018.org etc would be likely to generate many millions of dollars of agent/affiliate ticket sales.

im serious about the broker though! :imho:

Thanks for all comments so far

'cause you have a hyphen between london and 2018...

 

[kev]

even with the -, is it worth at least XX - XXX do you think?

 

[edwinfelix]

If you find the right person, maybe, it takes time.

 

[chimaera]

So it wasn't london-2018.org that sold for $1100?

 

[kev]

i hink so? Can anyone clarify

 

[edwinfelix]

london2018.org was sold for £1,290.00 that's like $2000 or something.

There's no other significant london2018 sale that I know of.
