End user domain name sales from the past week — YoureFired.com and
.AI and .Tech domains among end user sales the prior week.
Sedo released its weekly sales data yesterday. The firm has stopped releasing details on the number of transactions it completed and the total sales amount. I suspect this has something to do with the discussion that happened over at OnlineDomain.com a month or two ago. It’s a shame that we won’t get this data. But the reality is that it’s up to Sedo what it wishes to disclose, and I’m grateful that it continues to share some data while Afternic does not. It probably doesn’t make sense for the firm to disclose data that will be used against it.
One of the firm’s top sales the prior week was YoureFired.com for $9,600, a domain that I imagine will be used for political reasons involving Donald Trump. The domain name has whois privacy, so we won’t know who owns it until it’s put to use.
On the end-user front, a firm paid $15,000 for a .tech domain, a bank bought a marketing name and amilitary technology firm bought a .ai domain name.
Here are some end user domain name purchases from the past week:
