Auction Ends Today, Sedo 2 Character Auction Starts — Rick Latona

One auction ends and another one begins today.

The extended auction for Rick Latona’s TRAFFIC auction ends today, and bidding is open online. A handful of domains have by now received bids (which also means they hit their reserve). Notable domains with bids include StateFlag(s).com at $25,000 and DLE.com at $12,400.

In an email sent to Rick Latona newsletter subscribers today, the firm stated it acknowledges that the Proxibid interface may be frustrating to use for the extended auction. Still, the firm will release its own bidding platform in time for its January TRAFFIC auction. When I reviewed the domains in the extended auction the prior week, I found that the inventory in this extended auction is much better than that in Moniker’s auction that concluded yesterday. So take a look.

In other domain auction news, Sedo’s 2 character domain name auction starts today. The auction includes 18 two character domain names, mostly .com. The biggest draw may well be 64.com, which is being offered with no reserve.
