ccTLDs
Take Top Spots on This Week's Domain Sales Chart and Pile Up Nearly
Half of the 20 Entries Overall
Someone must have declared the past
7 days ccTLD Week. Country code domains took the top two
spots on our latest all extension Top 20
Domain Sales Chart and went on to pile up 9 chart entries
overall. German domain GayForum.de set the pace with a $45,500
sale at Sedo.
The domain was purchased to serve as a redirect to an active forum
at the .com version of the domain.
The runner up slot went to SS.TV, a
name that MostWantedDomains,
acting as the broker for the Legacy Fund, found a buyer for
at $30,000. Yet another ccTLD reached the top half of the
elite list. Sedo sold #6 Partners.eu for $19,500 and
they went on to sweep 12 of the 20 chart entries.
The .coms ran the rest of the
board, leaving the non .com gTLDs on the outside looking in as no reported sales from that category reached five figures this
week. #3 Lovoo.com led the .coms with a $24,700 sale
through Sedo. #4 PublicSex.com followed at $20,000 via
HuntingMoon.com.
Afternic
completed the first five with D88.com at $19,999, one
of four sales they placed on the Big Board.

Chart honors also went to Bert Svensson
who sold #7 EuropeRiverCruises.com for $18,020 in a
private transaction and Ilze Kaulins at ExcellentDomains.ca
who sold #18 ISI.ca for $10,119. We don't publish
explicit adult domain sales, but if we did Canada's .ca would
have had another chart entry this week as Sedo sold one matching
that description for $30,000.
Here is how the
sales leaders stacked up for the week ending Sunday, March 10:

Keep in mind that these are the highest
value cash only 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.

Country Codes
TheccTLDSwere smoking again this week with nine five-figure sales
(all of which made the all extension top 20 sales chart you saw
above). The country code charge was led by the year's second
biggest sale to date in this category - GayForum.de at $45,500
via Sedo.
The highest ccTLD sale you haven't seen yet is
#10 on our new Country Code Top 20
Sales Chart. That is TIB.eu, a European Union domain
that went for $9,003 at Sedo. Sedo wound up sweeping 19
of the 21 chart entries (the extra spot resulted from a
three-way tie for the final position).
Sedo kicked off the second half of the chart
with #11 Hausfinanzierung.de
at $8,190. That sale helped Germany's .de TLD
easily win the extension race with six chart entries.
Only three other TLDs had multiple chart entries (with each
claiming two spots) - those were the European Union's .eu,
Spain's .es and Great Britain's .co.uk.
Here is how the country code leaders stacked
up for the week ending Sunday, March 10:
