User Domain Name Sales — 16 End
A look at 16 domain names sold on Sedo the prior week that were purchased by end users.
Sedo handled regarding a million dollars worth of domain name transactions the prior week with 499 domains. Many of the biggest sales — such as Frank Schilling’s $66,000 sale of newy.com — are still in the transfer process. At that price, it’s surely an end user purchase.
Still, there are some notable sales to note. A three letter .org domain sold for $7,500 and a dermatology firm bought a domain matching one of its brands for £9,500.
Here’s a look at 16 domain names purchased by end users over the past week:
