Moniker Geo-Domain Auction Ends Today

Silent auction ends starting at 3PM EST today.

The silent auction portion of Moniker’s first-ever geo domains auction ends today. Auctions will start concluding at approximately 3PM EST, but many will last into the evening.

A quick review shows limited bidding thus far, which may mean great buying opportunities. Anyone who has ever bid or registered in a previous auction can participate at no charge at silentauction.moniker.com. Prices start at $240.

Also mixed into the silent auction are domains from the Casino Affiliate Convention Macau.

Most of the geo domains include a city or state name and topic, such as:

SeattleEmployers.com $1,200
BoiseBailBonds.com $360
VirginiaShops.com $2,360
MissouriTuxedos.com $360
SacramentoBlog.com $1,180
VermontAttractions.com $3,760

Domains that didn’t sell in the live auction are also up for grabs. Bidding starts at the reseve. Two of my domains, SanFrancisco.us and KansasCity.us are available for bidding. Following looking at the reserves for Memphis.us ($500k) and Denver.us ($1M), I’m wondering if my reserve on SanFrancisco.us is a bit low 🙂

PasadenaNews.com $3,530
VisitCapecod.net $360
BerkeleyNews.com $360
BritishColumbiaNews.com $1,180
