Top.com Tops $100,000 at Auction

Tuesday, January 27th, 2009

Domain has met reserve and will sell for six figures.

The domain name Top.com has met its reserve at Sedo and is currently at EUR 101,000 ($133,000 USD). 38 bids have been placed. The auction ends January 29 at 7 am EST.

The auction should give a confidence boost to the domain industry heading into this week’s DOMAINfest live domain auctions.

Although Top.com is the top auction (sorry, I couldn’t help myself) at Sedo right now, there are several other noteworthy auctions to watch.

Acaijuice.com has a single bidder at $24,000. Acai juice is known as a healthy antioxidant and has 625,000 Google results (not to mention a lot of ads).

Anwalt.com, which means a variant of lawyer in German, is at EUR 20,000 with one bidder.

The three character domain FPS.com has four bidders at $10,000. FPS has a number of acronyms.

Here are some other domain names worth keeping your eye on:

eNew.com EUR 4,000

Facts.info EUR 3,000 – a high price for a info

AthensPlumbing.com $3,000 – this must be an end user sale, and provide a boost to two word geos

FBomb.com – $1,500 – so many uses

DNMarketplace.com – $1,500 – OK, who’s planning to start another domain name aftermarket?

SportsMemorabilia.co.uk – 1,050 £

MVPCapital.com – $500 – hmm. There are several investment groups that use this name and would like to have this domain.

    Well; Top is still a nice value at anything under US 150K; while I’ll be surprised if Acaijuice actually closes at anything over 20K.

    FIrst movies, now tv and the internet are going 3d. As the internet goes 3d, does anyone think 3d before or after a Generic Name will be of value?
