The calendar says
its winter but the domain aftermarket is producing
enough heat to make it
feel like summer. As we reported Tuesday (Feb. 18), the year's
first publicly reported 7-figure sale - Commerce.com
at $2.2 million has just been put on the board by Larry
Fischer (GetYourDomain.com)
and Ari Goldberger (ESQwire.com).
This is actually the second time the pioneering duo has
been involved in a sale of this premier domain. Representing Anything.com,
they purchased it for $180,000 back in 2004. This time
they handled the sale of the prime asset for more than $2
million above the original acquisition price.

|
Dropcatch.com
completed a powerful 1-2 punch at the top of or latest
all extension Top 20 Sales Chart with the $802,500
sale of Spend.com in an auction that ended on their
popular site at the end of January. The 6-figure bell also
rang yet another great .ai domain in #3 Weather.ai at
$150,000 with Lumis.com
and Atom.com
working together to get it done. SAV.com joined the party too,
with the biggest auction sale to date on their platform - a
spirited battled that produced the $100,000
sale of TRC.com.
Over
the past couple of years we've seen the ccTLDs
(especially with the .ai explosion) and the non .com
gTLDs giving the .coms a lot stiffer competition on our
charts. Still, the world's most dominant extension frequently
reminds everyone who is boss with an outing like they had over
the past two weeks. Their latest flex gave them 8 of the
top 10 sales on latest leader board as 14 of 20 overall.
You can credit some of that muscle to Sedo's
Mark "Mr. Premium" Ghoriafi, who sold #5 Weights.com
for $85,000 (Mark also helped pump up the non .com
gTLDs by selling Weights.net for $7,500 to a
different buyer)!
|
|
The
non .com gTLDs threw their weight around on the Big Board too,
with Swetha Yenugula giving them their
biggest boost with a $70,000 sale of #6 Bitz.xyz
through Afternic.
Afternic also worked with Top.Domains
to produce two more chart entries - #13 Home.bet at $19,888
and #15 Kim.bet at $18,888.
The
ccTLDs weren't sitting on their hands either. In addition to
that big Weather.ai sale, they have four more representatives
on the honor roll. Sedo accounted for three of those while WeBroker.vc
added the other with #20 Premise.vc at $15,000.
One
other note - our 2025
Year-to-Date Top Sales Charts are up and already
expanding thanks to the surge of solid sales that have
gotten the new year off to a great start. Even though we are
only six weeks into the 2025 sales season, every one of the
YTD Top 10 is at least six figures.

Keep in mind that these are the highest value
cash only sales that have been reported to us in the
past two weeks. 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. |
