A $950,000 Sale Booked by Larry Fischer and the Year's Biggest ccTLD Sale Highlight This Week's Chart

The latest jewel in Larry Fischer's domain sales crown came within a whisker of the million-dollar mark this week. The pioneering domain investor/broker rang the bell yet again with a $950,000 sale of Nursing.com. In addition to topping our weekly all extension Top 20 Sales Chart, that also ranks as the second biggest sale reported so far this year, trailing only the $3 million sale of California.com in January.

That was just one of three six-figure sales reported this week. #2 PFF.com easily cleared the bar after changing hands for $270,000 in a private transaction. That is by far the biggest 3-letter .com sale of the year to date, almost doubling the amount ($140,000) paid for GPA.com in February. Warren Mae Premium Domains hit a home run as well, banking $148,500 for #3 MortgageRefinancing.com.  

There was also big news on the ccTLD front with that category getting a new 2019 leader with Park.io's $68,000 sale of Swipe.io. That edged out previous country code leader, Seereisen.de
("sea travel" in German), a name that sold for $66,640 last month. Swipe.io is one of six ccTLDs on the Big Board, with three of those reaching the top ten - Swipe.io at #5, Studio.io ($20,000) at #7 and Week-end.fr ($11,300) tied for #8.

By Ron Jackson

The non .com gTLDs were limited to just one spot that went to a new gTLD, #14 (tie) Koeln.business at $6,780 (Koeln is the German spelling for the beautiful city we know as Cologne).

The .coms swept everything else, 14 of 21 places overall (the extra spot resulting from a four-way tie four the final position), including an impressive $79,000 sale of #4 Paga.com made by NewReach.com. Sedo piled up nine of those .com sales and 14 chart entries overall. MediaCode.com also aided the .com cause with their $7,000 sale of #12 LocationIntelligence.com.  

Here's a look at how all of the sales leaders stacked for the week ending Sunday, June 9, 2019:

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.
