Larry Fischer Lands a 7-Figure Blockbuster! Latest Chart Topper Ranks Among Year's 5 Biggest Sales 

I was away taking some vacation days last week so I have two weeks worth of sales data for you this time out. A lot of good things happened in the aftermarket while I away was including a blockbuster 7-figure sale I just confirmed today. In that one veteran domain investor/broker Larry Fischer (GetYourDomain.com) closed a $1,200,000 sale of MyWorld.com for seller Anything.com. That is one of the five biggest sales reported so far this year and the fifth to break the seven-figure barrier. That is not new territory for Larry, an industry pioneer who has been involved in an extraordinarily large number of high end transactions. The vast majority of those have never been made public due to non-disclosure agreements.

In another nice sale, Kate Buckley at Buckley Media Group (representing the seller) and Amber Burke at Flippa.com (representing the buyer) worked together to complete a $225,000 deal for Agenda.com. That ranks among the 20 biggest sales so far in 2017. Kate now has three of the year's 20 highest sales to date.

By Ron Jackson

The week's biggest five-figure sales share both a keyword (actually a key number in this case) as well as the #3 position on the Big Board. Clark Siegelin at DomainProducts.com sold Wealth365.com for $60,000 while NameJet banked the same amount for the week's top ccTLD sale - 365.tv. Clark holds one of the world's biggest collections of prime "keywords+365" domains (numbers like 360, 247 and 24 are also popular with .com investors who have used  this kind of  pattern to rack up sales). Siegelin (who used Sedo's escrow service for this sale) said this was the highest price paid to date for a keyword+365 domain.

Another NameJet sale - Everex.com at $50,205 rounded out the first five. After that three-letter .coms took center stage with nine names filling over half of the remaining slots. NameJet racked up all nine of those with a group led by #6 BEF.com at $39,000. That run helped the .coms sweep 15 of the 20 chart entries.

The remaining five spots on the leader board all went to country code domains - a group that is continuing to have a very solid year. Nidoma.com and GritBrokerage.com each accounted for two of those charted ccTLD sales. Nidoma scored with #13 Park.it ($29,090) and #16 Take.it ($23,801) while Grit rang up $25,000 for #14 Sequence.co and $22,500 for #19 Urban.co.

That left no room for the non .com gTLDs this week though the category did have two five-figure sales that are included in the more than two dozen additional sales in that range that are listed after the Top 20 Chart below.

Here is how the sales leaders stacked up for the two weeks ending Sunday, October 8, 2017:

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

The ccTLDs had another excellent outing piling up 11 five-figure sales led by the year's third biggest country code sale to date - 365.tv at $60,000 via NameJet. All of those five-figure sales were listed in the all extension section above, so the biggest sale in this group that you haven't seen yet is #12 on our latest weekly ccTLD Top 20 Sales Chart. That is Sedo's $9,999 sale of Guts.es.

Sedo went on to sweep 12 of the 20 chart entries. Nidoma has the next highest total with four, including #13 Gelateria.it at $9,996. KeywordDomains.com followed with a nice IDN sale - #14 ÖLE.de at €7,500 ($8,925).

The extension race wound up in a dead heat with Germany's .de and Italy's .it each claiming four chart entries. Here is how the country code leaders stacked up for the two weeks ending Sunday, Oct. 8, 2017:

Non .com gTLDs (.net, .org and others, including new gTLDs)

The non .com gTLDs weren't as fortunate as the other categories with only 14 sales reported for this group over the past two weeks. Two of those reached five figures - Clinical.net at $10,710 via Nidoma and NFC.net at $10,000 through Sedo - to top our latest Non. com gTLD Top Sales Chart. 

The .nets made it three straight with NameJet's $5,700 sale of #3 ThemeCircle.net. Rounding out the first five are BeatBullying.org ($5,601 at NameJet) and a new gTLD, Coins.exchange, at $5,000 via GoDaddy. 

While the .nets got off to a fast start, the .orgs came from behind to win the extension race with six chart entries - one better than the .nets. Here is how the non .com gTLD leaders stacked up for the two weeks ending Sunday, Oct. 8, 2017:
