Jets.com Sells for $375,000, One of Three Six Figure Sales at Sedo
Monday, September 21st, 2009
Jets.com leads pack at Sedo.
By now you’ve probably heard that Sedo brokered the sale of Jets.com last week for $375,000. But that’s not the only great sale from Sedo this page week; it also sold two other six figure domains.
But first let’s discuss Jets.com. [UPDATE: We now know that the domain was bought by Concord Private Jets.] The domain is still in the transfer process so we don’t know who bought it. After the nameservers were switched to Sedo parking, they then moved to wikimedia.org for a brief period before switching to secureserver.net. I don’t think Wikimedia has anything to do with the purchase; they were just holding nameservers and the domain didn’t resolve there. But later this week we should know if the domain was purchased by a “flying” jet, a “football” Jet, or someone else altogether.
Now onto the other six figure sales. Newbrand.de sold for 120,000 EUR, or about $175,000 USD, and TradeTracker.com sold for 100,000 EUR, or about $145,000 USD.
Other impressive sales include Production.com at $70,000, 222.com at $49,000, designer.de for 50,000 EUR, and a strong .org sale of Attorney.org for $38,500.

Interesting that the dns would be changing with the domain in sedo transfer. The last time I checked, when whois shows Sedo, that the domain is in Sedo’s control. To me, that means Sedo is changing the dns…?
We sold the CaliforniaInsuranceFinder.com
Its our 28th geo insurance domain sale in 3 weeks.
RKB – nice. Are the buyers coming to you or are you approaching them?
Thanks Andrew.
In all cases buyers either came to us via sedo.com, afternic.com, our site ImpactDomains.com or directly via whois contact info.
We have not approached any end user so far ourselves.
We are currently negotiating at early stages for 2 more insurance and 1 city blog .com domains.
Again, buyers just contacted us.
The different thing this time is that buyers are end users. We are definitely seeing an uptick in aftermarket domain sales and last 1 month has been our best ever.
Hopefully it will continue from here omwards….:)
I’m gonna bet the NY JETS bought it.
RKB,
I hope all is well. I am the sales person who put together the Jets.com deal. I sent you an email to your site. I would like to speak to you in regards to me reaching out to end users for your insurance domains. If you have a chance give me a call or email me:
