ZL.COM sold at $45,100 only on Namejet yesterday

[HcDomains]

Yes, it ZL.COM, a real LL.COM domain

Total 124 domainers backordered it included me. I though it will go to $10K at least but I don't have that cash in hand so I don't put another bid after my initial $99 bid

The auction was closed yesterday

The auction close at a very low, unbelievable price!

US $45,100

It is a easy $100K domain if list it on Sedo, or Pool....
I should raise my bid at $50k or so if I relized the auction would be closed at such a low price, that is a steal.....

I am regeret thay I didn't waiting for the end of this Auction... Damm that all drop auctions end at 4:00 AM my local time

Wish the winner would not pay for it, then namejet can relist for a new auction

What do you guys think about this? The winter for domaining is coming because of Economy Crisis?


The url to the auction is here, not sure you can visit it or not if you are not in the backordered list

I very much doubt it. Wouldn't see this price as a steal myself, high quality 2 letter having been going under 100k. This sale simply respresnets the reality of the market.

Hang about. You just said your bid was $99 and that you thought it would at least get $10,000?

Have to agree with snoop on this one, I don't see it as a steal based on the current market. I've seen premium ones going for $70k - $80k, and Z really hurts the acronym potential (only 10 registered ones on AcronymFinder). I've seen better end user potential on mid-grade LLL.com.

No way this would hit 100k on Sedo -- probably wouldn't hit above 60k in this market and then keep in mind the 10%/6k commission they'd take. A bit low imho but not all that low considering it's a reseller buying it. I wouldn't splurge that kind of money on a domain like this when there's so much uncertainty in the market..

Agree, certainly more acronyms from most triple premium LLL.coms.

Sincerey, I don't see any LL.COM sold lower than $90K in 2008. Could someone give me any link for confirmed report?

LL.com's sales trends is very import for me to evaluate the oveall short domains market . thx

$45,100 = 225 Quad Premium LLLL.com's for Reece, Mr LLLL.com

 

[gladdy]

Fantastic domain, really cheap, who is the lucky one?

 

[cache]

I would think this is a good price.

When it comes to short domains I am not sure why LL.com are priced so much higher than LLL.com in general. The average solid LL.com still seems to sell for over $100K.

Sure they are extremely rare and collectible, but most end users need acronyms longer than Two Letters in the first place.

I completely agree, LLL is probably the best scenario for company acronyms.

Aside from that, really what the heck would ZL.com be? I wouldn't pay a penny over $10k for this domain name. That is just my personal opinion though.

That's just it.

I can't even come up with a meaningful acronym off the top of my head without resorting to using acronym software...

You wouldn't pay over 10k for a name that can be auctioned for 45k?

Regarding what it can be, it is mainly a speculative/collectors type name I think. I don't think it needs to mean anything to have great value.

Limited number of applications but still a fair buy- here are some.

Even an acronym software doesn't provide much.

[HuntingMoon]

you could do a word play "zell" .. like "sell"

seems like a good deal for the buyer. maybe we will see another value when/if they flip it tomorrow...


hmm- also zillow could shorten their name...
