Results
From Sedo's 2nd .AT Auction Are In & The Big
ROTD/NameJet NamesCon Auction is Underway
|
As
we previously noted
Sedo scheduled three auctions of short
.AT domain names this month. Our
report on results from the first one
is here
and the second one just ended Monday
(November 22) with another
impressive list of sales. .AT is Austria's
official ccTLD but, unlike
some country code domains, .AT names
can be purchased by anyone.
Sedo
said thousands of bids came in from
around the world on nearly 400 domains
in the latest auction. The top
ten sales alone totaled €79,242
($83,996 at today's exchange
rate). Here's a list of those top
sellers:

the catalog for this
final sale includes wh.at, r.at, s.at, sw.at, v.at as well as
numerics with meaning
in the Chinese culture
like 7.at and
8.at. |

While
Sedo's
auction
series is
finishing
up, NameJet
and RightOfTheDot
have just
launched a big
live and
online
domain auction they
are once
again
staging in
conjunction
with the
annual NamesCon
conference
in Las
Vegas
where the 2017
show will
run
January
22-25.
The live
event will
be held on January
23rd
from 3PM-6PM
Pacific time
but the
online
auction
is open
now.
A
joint press
release
about the
event said,
"The
auctions
will feature
some of the
best .com
and
new gTLD
names
available
anywhere
including a
super
premium
bundled lot
featuring
BAR.COM,
BAR.NET,
CAFES.COM,
GRILL.COM,
PLACE.COM,
PUB.COM
SHELTER.COM,
and other
individual |
premium
and super
premium
names such
as LEADS.COM,
SPORTSCARS.COM,
PATTY.COM,
STOP.COM,
WINECLUB.COM,
GOLD.CLUB,
SINGLE.COM,
E.HOSTING,
MORTGAGE.BROKER,
PPL.NET, and
others."
"There
will be an
estimated
400 names
in the
overall
auction with
an estimated
125 domains
being
offered at
the live
auction on
January
23rd. Many
premium
domains will
be priced at
no and low
reserves to
promote
competitive
bidding and
true market
prices."
The
last two
NamesCon
auctions
resulted in
over $3.5
million
in sales.
For those
interested
in placing
names in the
auction, the
release also
noted,
"Additional
domain names
will be
considered
for
inclusion by
submitting
names at http://rotd.com/auction-submission/.
Please note
that only
ultra-premium
names
will be
considered.
Accepted
names will
be added
continually
to pre-bidding
before the
start of
NamesCon so
you will
want to
check the
auction page
often for
new
additions
and bidding
activity." |
