Over 120 expired domain sales results and analysis: EDR
This stretch’s Expired Domain Note (EDR) covers over ten dozen domain names sold over the past week, plus a look at the week ahead.
What’s the value of a good book? Or a piece of art? If you thought you couldn’t put a number on such subjective, intangible components of human culture, guess again! At least in .COM, a good book is worth $565 and a piece of art $616.
Domains are often compared to real estate since they’re a finite resource people pay to build on. Still, domain prices fluctuate more unpredictably than land or houses. So another valid analogy would be art work. A given painting is unique and would fetch widely different prices on different days. With PieceOfArt.com, for example, the difference between $330 and $616 was due to a particular bidder (me) with the same taste as the winner. Placing a precise appraisal value on domains is misguided.

We’ll see which of the many Silverlines out there bought Silverline.com for $6k. Silverline Windows? Silverline Music? Silverline CRM? Silverline Security? Or an east coast metro transit service?
USPatentAttorneys.com was a good buy at less than $500. Inside the U.S. that prefix may feel unnecessary, but outside the United States it’s an notable designator.
The world’s coral reefs have generated domain sales 2 weeks in a row: ReefQuest.com at $121 this stretch and ReefsEdge.com at $105 the week ahead of.
Bella Notte is Italian and literally means “beautiful night”. Some of you may remember an iconic scene from Disney’s “The Lady and the Tramp” involving spaghetti and a song based around this phrase.
GoDaddy Auctions, meanwhile, had its fair share of expired domain sales — topped by an LLL .COM:

The best buy in this list, in my opinion, was PetModeling.com for just $235. TV commercials or photos involving pet cats and dogs are everywhere. Pay checks aren’t written out to Fido.
Wrecks.net was a bargain too for $185. What car wreck ever gets off with less than $185 in repairs? That domain was in my list of recommendations the prior week — as were ClickCapital.com ($707), SoutheastUtah.com ($470), and Domainster.com ($1135).

EEWriters.com would mean “electrical engineering”, by the way. In Spanish, a concesionario is a “licensee” — but, more specifically, a licensed car dealer. “Studentin” is German for “female student”.
PropagandaPanda.com may not make you rich, but I can’t think of a cuddlier animal to yell lies into a megaphone. Can you?
