The lone charted ccTLD sale not handled by
Sedo was #9 3DTV.co.uk, a name that was purchased by Zycon.co.uk
for £15,000 ($22,650) in a private transaction.
A pair of non .com gTLDs, both
.orgs, also made the elite list. Moniker.com
moved #4 TaxAttorney.org for $35,000 and Sedo sold #11
Ferien.org for €14,875 ($19,993).
The AfternicDLS
was the only venue other than Sedo to ring up multiple chart
entries. They hit the trifecta with a trio of sales led by #10 CarRatings.com
at $21,000.
Here is how all of the sales leaders stacked up for the
week ending Sunday, March 28:

Keep in mind that these are the highest
value sales that have been reported to us in the
past week. This column is meant to be an educational tool,
not a complete list documenting ALL high
value domain sales. Such a list is impossible to produce
because many sales are kept private at the insistence of
buyers, sellers or both. Our procedure for verifying the
accuracy of domain sales reports is available here.
|
For
the many newcomers entering the domain
industry we also want to point out that the reasons why a domain name sells for a certain price can be varied and are not always clear to those who are unfamiliar with the domain market.
If you do not understand why specific domain names command the
prices they do, you are likely to make unwise domain registrations or purchases.
We highly recommend that you do some basic research before
you buy anything! As a starting point we have
built a sister site specifically for you at NameNewbie.com.

Global Contenders (Non .com gTLDs:
.biz, .info, .mobi, .net, .org, .pro & .tel)
Our new non .com Global Contenders Top 20 Chart
is led by Moniker's $35,000 sale of TaxAttorney.org
at $35,000. That also ties for the #2 position in on our Year
To Date GC list (3rd chart on that page), trailing only
Poker.org (the year's biggest sale at $1 million).
TaxAttorney.org was one of four five-figure sales in this
category, all of which were listed in the all extension section
above.
The top GC sale you haven't seen yet is #5 SalonEquipment.net
at $8,788 via the AfternicDLS. That was one of five charted
domains for them. Sedo had the most chart entries with 13
including #6 Eyelashes.org at $7,370.
This was a big week for .org as that
extension swept 11 chart entries including three of the top four
and six of the top ten. .Net took the other nine openings.
