What domains BMW and other end users bought the prior week

BMW, a gaming firm, and a deals site bought domain names over the past week.

It was a frustrating week to uncover end user domain name sales at Sedo since many of the buyers are using Whois privacy. Still, I was able to figure out the (likely) buyer of WomenInc.com at $25,000 following sleuthing around.

Also note the €11,000 sale of Iliad.it and BitCasinos.com, which will be used to direct people to casinos that accept bitcoin.

Here’s the list I uncovered:

(You can view previous lists like this here.)

WomenInc.com $25,000- The domain has Whois privacy but the buyer is likely this group. You’ll note that they also have a trademark filing for The Music Channel and are using that template for the fresh site.

Iliad.it €11,000 – Iliad Holding S.p.A. Looks like a relatively fresh firm. The site on the domain as of 9/19 is from the previous owner.

ActionGame.com €6,500 – Online gaming network and publisher Zygomatic.

Scortex.com $5,000 – Scoretex is a “smart visual imaging” firm. They were smart to upgrade from the matching .io domain.

BitCasinos.com $4,600 – The buyer is using Whois privacy but is creating a site regarding casinos that accept bitcoin.

Alpharent.com $3,500 – BMW. BMW owns a firm called Alphabet as well as Alphabet.com, which is why Google couldn’t get that domain when they named their fresh parent firm.

Waug.com $3,495 – Waug Travel in South Korea uses the domain name Waug.co.kr.

Pepper.es €3,300 – Pepper.com is an online deals site with over a half billion pageviews per month.

LiveLife.net $2,868 – CSC bought this domain for one of its clients.

PrivateDetective.net $2,299 – Private investigation firm International Counterintelligence Services (ICS).
