Domains at Uniregistry this past week — Who bought

Big three-letter eko.com sale was just one of many sales.

Uniregistry’s sale of Eko.com smashed the charts this stretch, but it wasn’t the only notable sale the firm made.

I reviewed the firm’s top 20 sales to figure out who bought domains. In many cases, I don’t know since the domain doesn’t resolve to a developed site and Whois information is obscured. Uniregistry Whois often only provides a state/province and country for the domain owner, and I’ve noted it when that’s the case.

Let’s take a look.

1. eko.com $1,500,000 – A video content firm that uses HelloEko.com bought the domain.

2. 7732.com $49,500 – Probably a domain investor.

3. practicemanagment.com $14,985 – The Capital Group Firms, Inc., a financial services firm with nearly $2 billion under management.

4. ground.org $11,000 – Whois is under privacy and site goes to a register parking page. Seems like an end user purchase here.

5. alfas.com $10,000 – The buyer is in Tokyo, as stated by the Whois.

6. ratefinder.com $9,800 – Mortgage rates? Tax rates? Shipping rates? I’m not sure, but Whois shows the buyer is someone in Texas. Nice domain name.

7. solarfoods.com $8,500 – Solar Foods Oy is a Finish firm creating a protein. It uses the domain SolarFoods.fi.

8. realwin.com $7,500 – The buyer is in Latvia.

9. schoolcloud.co.uk $7,475 – The Nominet Whois record doesn’t tell us much.

10. steeltrader.com $7,000 – Technology & Engineering Services in Uruguay.

11. talabani.com $6,000 – Whois is for someone in Maryland. The domain still resolves to a Uniregistry lander.

12. banfu.com $5,500 – Banfu is a town in China. Whois shows the buyer is in China.

13. kicksnation.com $5,500 – Kicks Nation will be a site to buy sneakers.

14. foldingknives.com $5,000 – It’s under Whois privacy and still resolves to a Uniregistry lander.

15. ghid.com $5,000 – Hmm. Buyer is in Pennsylvania but I’m not sure who it is.

16. zipextractor.com $5,000 – The firm that uses ZipExtractor.app bought this domain.
