End user domain purchases — 16 compelling

16 firms buy the right domain in the domain aftermarket.

Here’s Reglike’s weekly look at end user domain sales. All of these sales took place on Afternic unless otherwise noted.

The owner of eClassie.com wised up to the radio test and bought eClassy.com for $3,500.

Another domain registrant made a smart move by dropping a hyphen. The owner of Fifth-Axis.com bought FifthAxis.com for $2,149.70.

Williams Chevrolet Honda Geo of Traverse, Michigan paid $1,500 for WilliamsMotors.com.

Arysta LifeScience Corporation bought Arysta.com for EUR 7,000 on Sedo.

Pest management firm Beneficial Insectary bought FlyControl.com for $4,588.

A firm called Effective Fundraising Strategies bought EffectiveFundraising.com for $1,188.

Here’s an example of a firm that owns a category killer domain buying a more niche domain to go along with it. Wild Attire Inc., which owns Ties.com, bought CorporateTies.com for $2,921.

Another upgrade, this time from .me to .com. The owner of Entheos.me bought Entheos.com for $8,000.

Unknown.com, Inc. paid $1,177 for UnknownPublisher.com.

Book publisher Thomas Nelson returned to the domain aftermarket to pick up TimeWithGod.com for $1,188.

Fresh Jersey based heating and cooling repair firm Airflow Systems, which does business as The Weather Busters, bought WeatherBusters.com for $2,488.

The firm behind AdKeeper, which has garnered lots of press, registered DealKeeper.com for $2,088. I think you can guess what that domain will be used for.
