Temperatures
aren't the only things sizzling this summer. In our last
report, when
the
chart leader passed the million dollar mark and five others
hit six figures, we though that was a high water mark
that might stand for awhile, but over the past two weeks we
saw yet another 7-figure sale and the number in six figures
doubled to ten. That meant one of those 6-figure sales
didn't even make the top half of the chart!
The
fireworks from the past fortnight got off to a fast start.
Just one day after our last report was published, Kate
Buckley at Buckley
Media let us know she had closed a $1,008,900
sale of eBike.com (a sale we detailed in our Lowdown
section that
day). That put Kate in the #1
|
|
|
position
on our latest all extension Top 20 Sales Chart this
week and, just for good measure, she claimed a second chart
entry with #17 Goldstreet.com at $70,623. Kate would have had a third if a
big deal she
brokered for Dutch.com was not subject to a privacy
request. eBike.com now ranks as the 5th biggest publicly
reported domain sale of the year
to date.
GoDaddy
played a very big role in the deluge of big numbers by
releasing their top 20 sales for the month of January for the
first time. That list included a half-dozen six-figure
sales led by #2 Steam.com at $390,560 and #4
WeShare.com at $280,000. Sandwiched between
those two is a $350,000 purchase of Yachts.com
made by Eric Borgos that was detailed by Andrew
Allemann in a post at DomainNameWire.
Rounding out the first five is a $194,213 sale of
RVsForSale.com that broker Jeff Garbutt at PrimeLoyalty.com
sold for industry veteran Francine Callahan. Fran said
that was actually the 3rd big sale Jeff has closed for
her this year (the others, made under NDA, were Acquisition.com
and CommercialProperty.com).
|
The
six and seven figure sales were all .coms with one
exception. That was a blockbuster German ccTLD sale at Sedo
where On.de changed hands for €119,000 ($140,240).
That is one of the five biggest country code sales posted so far this
year. Two other ccTLDs also earned spots on the elite list.
GoDaddy sold #14 Own.co for $87,750 and Grit
Brokerage banked $75,000 for Versus.co.
Grit
Brokerage also gets credit for one of the two non .com gTLD sales on
the honor roll - an impressive $80,000 sale of #15 Clean.org.
GoDaddy posted an even bigger sale in that category raking in $144,000
for Skweezer.net in the second biggest non .com gTLD sale
of the year to date, trailing only Poker.net (sold for $750,000 in
March).

It
looks like eye-popping sales will be getting even bigger before this
year is out. Just today, George Kirikos reported on his blog
that Sports.com is changing hands for $6 million! $3
million of that has already been paidby
Trident Acquisitions Corp., with the balance due by the end of
the year (we will be able to chart the sale when that happens).
George
generated some big news about newly discovered historical domain
sales since our last report as well. As reported on his Twitter
feed, Kirikos found proof in an SEC filing that Gambling.com
sold for $2.5 million in 2011. We had actually reported
speculation about that sale at the time, but did not know it had been closed. Gambling.com is the 2nd biggest sale reported for
that year, trailing only Social.com ($2.6 million). We have added
it to that spot on the 2011
Top 100 Sales Chart in our Domain
Sales Archive.
George
also uncovered a $2
million
sale of Chatter.com made in 2010 and that one
has been added to the #3 position on our 2010
Top 100 Chart. In another
old SEC filing, George learned that TDC.com was sold for $1
million in 2001. The was before we came into existence and
started tracking aftermarket sales in late 2003, but we do have a list
of verified pre-2004 sales in our Archive that TDC.com has
now been added to. Thanks, as always, to George for his invaluable work in
unearthing these sales and sharing them with the community.
Now
back to the present! Here is how
all of the sales leaders stacked up for the two weeks
ending Sunday, July 4, 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
also continue to burn up the track. Led by the $140,240
sale of On.de at Sedo
and 14 five-figure sales, our latest Country Code Top 20 Sales Chart
is loaded yet again. That On.de sale is one of the year's
five biggest ccTLD sales to date. It is followed by three
strong .co sales. GoDaddy moved #2 Own.co
for $87,750, Grit Brokerage sold #3 Versus.co
for $75,000 and Grit team up with Morgan Linton
to sell #4 Twelve.co for $54,000. Grit
Brokerage had a hand in seven charted sales overall, second only to
the perennial ccTLD king, Sedo, who has 11. Sedo's list
includes a
$50,000 sale of Samur.ai that rounded out the
first five.
The $12,500
sale of #14 Catch.us by Jennifer Semple Siegel
via GoDaddy is a reminder for me to tell you about a
new news and information website for the .US community
that was launched on the 4th of July. It's called, appropriately
enough, American Domain Names, was created by yours
truly, and can be
found at ADN.US.
You can also followed ADN on Twitter - @AmericanDomains.

Non .com gTLDs (.net, .org and

The Non .Com gTLDs
were led by that huge $144,000 sale of Skweezer.net

at Grit Brokerage. Those are the second third biggest sales
reported in
this category so far
this year. Three more five-figure sales
