Sedo Soars With a Blockbuster $798,000 Sale and The Year's Biggest ccTLD Sale to Top This Week's Charts

Sedo was already having a great June, but this week they really outdid themselves. After posting the year's biggest non .com sale to date last week (Casinos.org at $400,000) they came right back with a blockbuster €700,000 ($798,000) sale of Links.com this week, as well as the biggest ccTLD sale reported so far in 2019 - 21.de at €79,730 ($90,892). That's not all. They also posted another six-figure sale (Auer.com at $100,000), as well as one of the five-biggest non .com gTLD sales of the year (Tomorrow.net at $48,216). When the smoke cleared Sedo wound up sweeping an all time high 19 of 20 entries on our all extension Top 20 Sales Chart. 

The only chart entry that escaped Sedo's grasp was one of the three spots that tied for #11 that went Bank.io, a domain that changed hands for $12,000 in a private transaction. Sedo said that Links.com sale, purchased as an upgrade by the operators of AllMyLinks.com, was the biggest publicly reported Buy It Now sale ever made on the Sedo MLS platform. It also ranks as the 5th biggest domain sale reported so far this year. 

The .coms, as usual, had the most chart entries with ten, but the ccTLDs put up a good fight, piling up eight chart entries of their own, with four of those landing on the top half of the leader board, including Sedo's $50,000 sale of #4 Analytics.ai.

Adding another feather to the country code cap, we also just learned about a previously unreported blockbuster ccTLD sale of Money.com.au that was made last year. The Australian domain changed hands for AUD 400,000 ($279,435) which made it the biggest country code sale of 2018. As such we have placed it in the #1 spot on the 2018 ccTLD Top 100 Sales Chart (the 2nd chart on the page linked to) in our Domain Sales Archive. It also became the #29 sale among all extensions for 2018.

As for the non .com gTLDs, they wound up with two places on the Big Board this week - the #5 sale of Tomorrow.net noted above and #19 Clockwise.net at $9,880. 

Here's a look at how all of the sales leaders stacked for the week ending Sunday, June 23, 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.
