‘LLLL.com’ Goes for $7900 on Sedo

Posted in LLLL.com on October 3rd, 2008 by Michael – 3 Comments

The domain LLLL.com recently sold on sedo for $7900.

This is undoubtedly one of the best of 4 letter domains and a perfect one to make a site on the industry news and sales.

The previous owner VURG planned to do so, but eventually decided to sell the domain.

The new buyer is Reece, the owner of BQB.com, so we should expect to see www.LLLL.com developed soon!

Today’s Sales: Printer.com - $800K, Bedandbath.com - $50k

Two top sales reported today on Dnforum

printer.com sells for $800,000

Today the Dutch webmag webwereld.nl published the sale of printer.com for $800,000.

(in Dutch) http://webwereld.nl/ref/rss/52452

Printer.com was purchased through Sedo by a Dutch startup that spent half of its funds on it. The company is not yet reveiling its exact plans with the domain name but the site will go live on September 2.

Bedandbath.com sold @ Sedo for $50,000!

“Bed and Bath” is a pretty common term, but really not worth nearly as much

Moniker also brokered the sale of Affiliate.com for $580k

In other exciting news .org registry crossed 7 million domains!

The summer break is over and sales are hitting up again?

Low Reserves on Sedo

Posted in Auctions, Sedo on July 15th, 2008 by Michael – Be the first to comment

Sedo is notorious for making sellers pick low reserves to “encourage more bidders” and while it sometimes work, frequently there aren’t enough bidders in the first place, so names end up with low prices. This mostly refers to GreatDomains auctions.

Next GreatDomains event has these names in the list, among others:

Attended.com no reserve
Calcium.net $1-$499
Debbie.net no reserve
Doctor.net $5,000-$9,999
Illicit.com $1,000-$4,999
Doorway.com $1,000-$4,999

Now some of these reserves are just ridiculously low, someone will get bargains!
I think low reserves only hurt the sale, there should be either no reserve at all, like on snapnames and bido, or a fair reserve like there is usually in TRAFFIC auctions and good sedo auctions. Low reserves will just reduce the domain’s value in the eyes of the buyer. A quick example is when I recently sold my coriander.com for just $5100 on greatdomains auction with reserve $5k, after it went up to $9k on a sedo auction previously, shy of reaching its reserve. There are simply not enough bidders to create a bidding war to get the price up, especially now due to summer, recession, election, global warming..

Webmasters.org Bidding Reaches $38K

Posted in Auctions, For sale on July 14th, 2008 by Michael – 1 Comment

Webmasters.org Bidding on sitepoint auction Reaches $38K.

It gets up to 10k pageviews per month, but only $25 monthly revenue. This is definitely a nice domain, with great potential as a webmaster community portal, but even with that it’s a very high price for a .org.

What helps is that it’s a pr7 and the site has many links. read more »
