Auction festivities taking place today.
A widely publicized auction for e.co ends today on Sedo at 4 PM EDT. As of the time of writing ten different bidders have pushed the price up to $38,000. Given the number of early bids in this auction this one could sizzle toward the close. Don’t rule out a six figure closing price.
Later this afternoon Latona’s will hold its premier domain name auction at the TRAFFIC conference in Vancouver. Rick Latona tells me that reserves on a couple premium .nets have been lowered significantly. CreditCard.net has been lowered to $150,000 and Pizza.net has been lowered to $180,000. Other premium .nets include a package of usedcar.net and usedcars.net at $100,000 for the pair.
Online bidding for the Latona’s auction is available at Proxibid.
Last night’s .ca auction at TRAFFIC pulled in over $250,000. The top sale was actually a .com, Surrey.com, which went for $195,000.

I figured Latonas would have been using their proprietary software this time around, after having had a chance to work out the kinks with all their daily auctions.
