Moniker Releases Domain Auction Catalog for NYC (Already)
Thursday, July 8th, 2010
Catalog issued well in advance with some big names.
One of my (and others’) complaints about live domain name auctions is that the catalogs are released at the last minute. That hardly gives time for serious buyers to pull together the necessary money or approval to make big purchases.
But Moniker just released the auction catalog for its August 18 auction at DOMAINfest NYC. That’s a refreshing change.
The list of domains includes some of those big dollar domains that will require some thinking and planning time:
Rate.com
Quotes.com
Stocks.com
StockQuotes.com
Cable.com
Reggae.com
Patents.com
ByOwner.com 1-800-ByOwner®
Artist.com
Invitro.com
XXX.com
Alcohol.com
Testing.com
Voters.com
Lawsuits.com
11 of the 111 domains are priced at $1 million or more, with two of them above $5 million: Patents.com and xxx.com.
Some other interesting domains in the auction:
Newlyweds.net – has a reserve of $50k-$100k, which is below the $130,000 paid for the domain at auction in 2008.
CJ.org – priced high, but affiliate company Commission Junction owns CJ.com. Commission Junction will be at Affiliate Summit in NYC just prior to the auction.

WOW.
Some eye-popping names in that list.
Let’s hope Moniker can move several of them in the auction.
Great list and strategy to start with the early promotion
Truly a remarkable list.
Maybe the best ever?
Great names. Will be interesting for see how many of the 11 domains priced at over 1 million will actually sell.
Great names!!! They will get top dollar for those domains. Should be easy to sell. Good Luck!!!
the most important factor is the name must be priced to sell.
no point having a great name if its overpriced.
