Sedo
Senior Broker Dave Evanson is kind of like a domain world
version of Babe Ruth. If he gets a good pitch (in this
case, a good domain to represent) he's going to hit a home
run. If you
|
Dave Evanson
|
define
a home run as a 6-figure sale, he's hit dozens of them,
but what Dave did April 15th (one day after our last
report was published) was something different. More like
hitting the ball over the stadium roof and into
the street a couple of blocks away. |
|
|
|
Evanson's
tape measure blast was a $2 million dollar sale of Angel.com
to
Angel Studios, a deal that, in addition to topping
our latest bi-weekly all-extension Top
20 Sales Chart, ranks as the second biggest sale of the year
to date, trailing only Christmas.com at $3.15
million (It may be April but Christmas and Angel couldn't
be a more beautiful pairing at the top of the 2021 leader
board)!
As
has been the case every fortnight this year, there was a
lot of good news to report from the domain
aftermarket. In another big sale, Neil Bostick, the
Managing Broker at QEIP.com,
announced their $625,000 sale of IZ.com with the
marquee domain moving
to NameCheap.
|
Since I
have already used the Babe Ruth analogy on Dave Evanson, what can I
say about legendary domain investor Garry Chernoff, who racked
up five of the ten biggest sales reported over the past two
weeks?! That is so rare it would be like Giancarlo Stanton
hitting a home run at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx and having it
land in the bleachers at the Mets field in Queens! Garry filled
the number 3 spot with Scottish.com at $155,000 and put
two others in a tie for #5, banking $75,000 apiece for Andar.com
and TopSport.com. He added $65,000 for #7
(tie) OfficeChair.com and $60,000 for #10 Joon.com!
Garry made three of those sales through Afternic,
one via Uniregistry
and the another from a direct inquiry.
While
the .coms swept nine of the first ten spots and 13 places
overall on the new chart, the ccTLDs also have a phenomenal
couple of weeks, taking everything else on the board - seven chart
entries overall. Mark Ghoriafi at MrPremium.com
led the country code charge with his $65,000 sale of Boxing.io.

By the way, the Boxing.io
transaction was done via bitcoin in order to speed up payment
and transfer of the domain. In previous years we treated bitcoin
purchases as a trade of assets rather than a cash sale.
However, bitcoin now has the same kind of liquidity as traditional
currencies. You can exchange it at any time for US dollars as easily
as changing euros or pounds for dollars (Ghoriafi, who doesn't use
crypto currency himself, received his commission in US dollars). So,
if a direct party to a sale can provide proof of the price
paid in bitcoin we now treat it the same way as we do other currencies
(Ghoriafi, who is thorough in everything he does, gave us the full
documentation we needed to verify the Boxing.io transaction).
Two sizeable historical
domain sales also came to light since our last report. James Iles
learned
that Pilot.com sold for $400,000 in 2017 and Scott
Mathson spotted a YouTube
interview with Calm.com Co-Founder and Co-CEO Alex Tew
in which he disclosed paying $140,000 for the Calm.com
domain in 2018. We have added those the Year to Date Charts in our
Domain Sales Archive for their respective years (Pilot.com is now #16
on the 2017
chart and Calm.com is tied for #56 on the 2018
chart).
Now, here's how
all of the sales leaders stacked up for the two weeks
ending Sunday, April 25, 2021:

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.

Country Codes
The ccTLDs
continue to fire on all cylinders. In one of their most
powerful performances ever, 19 of the 20 chart entries on
our bi-weekly Country Code Top 20 Sales Chart
reached five figures. MrPremium.com's $65,000 sale of
Boxing.io and a trio of German .de sales at
Sedo set the pace. At Sedo, Credit.de drew $48,000,
Sound.de delivered $37,800 and Promi.de
produced $36,000.
Sedo went on to
sweep 15 of the 20 chart entries, including eight of the top
ten. One exception was the $35,000 sale of Noticias.tv
made through Uniregistry/Afternic. MagnumDomains
was the only other venue with multiple chart entries,
scoring three times with a trio led by AHS.co
and TPF.co - names that tied for #12 at $20,000
apiece.

produced by Sedo. They topped our latest Non.Com gTLD Top 20 Sales
Chart with Celestia.org at $23,400 and ELA.net

We truly appreciate the industry leading companies who share
their sales information with us to help everyone in the
business get a handle on current domain values.
Every other Wednesday
we
publish the highest reported domain name sales reported to
us over the preceding two weeks. Thanks to those data contributors
we are able to produce the industry's most
comprehensive sales report.
Editor's Note:
If you wish to review previous Domain Sales columns,
they are available in our Archive.
