In most parts of the
world spring brings a welcome change of seasons with
warmer temperatures and bluer skies, but the weather in the
domain aftermarket continues to be more like Florida's -
sunny all year round. In fact, after nearly two years of
an ongoing boom, sales activity seems to be getting hotter
than ever. In the two weeks since our last bi-weekly report
we've seen a 7-figure sale that ranks #2 among the year's
highest reported sales to date, plus four
others in six figures, including the biggest ccTLD
sale reported thus far in 2022. The past fortnight also
produced three of the year's ten biggest non .com
gTLD sales...and these are just the publicly reported
sales. Just about every major broker can truthfully tell you
they have closed even bigger ones under NDAs.

A
$1.5 million sale of Gems.com to the Gem
Shopping Network (that we detailed in our Lowdown
section Monday) led the parade this time around the track.
That sale, brokered by Mark Thomas at VIPBrokerage.com
(representing the seller), is the fourth 7-figure sale
reported this year and is second only to the $1.8 million
sale of Galaxy.com handled by MediaOptions in
February. This is familiar territory for Thomas who
posted the second highest sale of the year in 2021
with Christmas.com at $3,150,000 and also had two of the five biggest
sales reported in 2019.
That
quartet at six figures was led by NameExperts.com
Founder Joe Uddeme who reeled in a quarter-million
dollar fish with his $250,000 sale of Bobber.com.
This is the latest in a long line of successes for Joe who had
the biggest non .com TLD sale of the year last year with
Poker.net at $750,000.
The
#3 sale on our latest all extension Top 20 Sales Chart
represents another high water mark - the biggest ccTLD sale
reported this year - Termin.de ("meeting in German) at
€150,000 ( $159,000) via Sedo,
the undisputed champion of country code sales for the past 20 years.
The
non .com gTLDs also had a great outing, taking the next three positions
with a trio of .xyz sales, including two in six figures - Swetha.xyz's
$110,000 sale of #4 Wrap.xyz and Michael Caron's
$104,000 sale of #5 Profile.xyz via DAN.com.
Michael said the latter domain was purchased by one of the co-founders
of OnlyFans.com. Overall, the non .com gTLDs claimed eight chart
entries, six of them .xyz domains. The biggest from another TLD was Logan
Flatt's $48,000 sale of #8 MMA.bet for Media
Code LLC. This group's performance, combined with two
charted ccTLD sales, resulted in a 10-10 split between the .coms and
non .coms on the leader board.

Keep in mind that these are the highest value
cash only sales that have been reported to us in the
past two weeks. 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.
