Now Vodka.co Sells for Five Figures — First Tequila.co

Second premium liquor keyword in .co sells in as many weeks.

Sedo has brokered the sale of Vodka.com for $10,000 to the same person who bought Tequila.co for $14,500 just a week ago.

Of course Vodka.com was one of the most expensive domain names ever sold. Legendary domainer Roy Messer sold it to a Russian vodka firm for $3 million.

So who’s the mystery buyer snapping up these liquor domains?

No, it’s not a liquor firm. It’s someone in the Czech Republic who has a penchant for high quality keyword .co domain names. The same person owns both Auctions.co and Beauty.co. He also owns some generic keywords in .asia.

The seller of the two liquor domains is someone in Bogota, Colombia, who likely got the domain names through the grandfathering process when .co was opened up at the second level.
