A few top sales recently:
Revolution.org Sells for $120,000 by Sedo in one of the top .org sales so far.
GoPlay.com - $26,300 On NameJet. Namejet is becoming the new snapnames! Generic .com names fetch top prices at NJ.
Contrary.com $10,363
MOOT.com for $45K on Sedo
Namepros is having some technical difficulties and the forum is not working currently. This happens very frequently lately, which is getting quite annoying. They should get a new server, or something.
I got a bunch of pm notifications by email and I can’t view them.
Another scammer popped up in dnforum and tried to sell a few 3 and 4 letter domains:

Since I’ve started developing my US city domains I’ve been positively surprised by the adsense clicks.
In general my average adsense clicks are between $0.20-0.30 through out my sites, but the US city names had many clicks in the $0.5-$1 range. The traffic is as targeted as you can get and it’s easy to understand why advertisers would be willing to spend more, but these are relatively small cities, so the number of advertisers is quite limited.
These clicks are definitely nothing compared to what one could earn by attracting direct advertisers. I just read on dnjournal that PalmSprings.com earns over a million dollars a year only from the homepage! This definitely shows the potential in geo domains and pretty clear plan: get a top city domain, make some site and make it rank well in google, find advertisers to purchase banners for some annual fee.

Dnjournal has an interesting story today about the recent GeoDomain conference.
Highly recommended to all geo domain owners. Among the contest nomination for top developed city domains were such gems as:
Vegas.com
Richmond.com
Hawaii.com
Branson.com (more…)
SS.tv appears listed in sedo recent sales for $21500.
Reminds about the story with SS.com, which was previously reported to have been sold for a hefty amount, but the sale didn’t go through.
Either way it’s a pretty decent amount for a .tv domain.
There were also some nice hyphenated sales:
sugar-bear.com $788
ice-rink.com $840
organic-spices.com $825
venetian-blinds.com $900

DebtNews.com sells for $10,628.00 on Bido.com
This domain would make a perfect content website all about current events in the debt world. The national debt is a major concern to many nations.
The news of things happening in regards to debt and finance are of importance to all businesses. Consumer debt is something many people pay dearly for and many businesses profit from as well. A website about debt has a very large target market and plenty of advertisers supporting the industry.
It was clearly an awesome domain and it’s a goldmine for the buyer, can be developed into something really big with the appropriate planning and financing.
This marks the first 5 figure sale for bido and we’ll sure see more!
