Genentech, Roche, and Booking.com bought domain names last week.
Sedo had a great last week, handling 689 transactions for $1.5 million. The volume was driven by 100 four letter .com domain name sales, but its end user sales also had strong prices.
The 64,000 dollar question this week is, “Who paid $64,000 for PassItOn.com at Sedo?” The domain is still being transferred, and the current holding page for a company in stealth mode is left over from the seller. Perhaps we’ll find out next week who is behind the purchase.
Here’s a look at end user domain name sales from the past week on Sedo:
