The Ad.com saga gets more interesting.
Sedo has completed the sale of AdMedia.com for $50,000. This is a curious sale because of what is now up at AdMedia.com:
Zoom in on a couple key elements, including the logo and copyright notice:
It sure looks like whomever has created this basic web site at AdMedia.com is trying to make a play on Ad.com, the disputed trademark that has caused some million dollar heartache.
There’s very little information about AdMedia.com on the web site; only a few contact forms. Its whois is privacy protected. It will be interesting to watch this one.
In other Sedo sales this past week, the auction for Rent.co.uk has closed and the deal completed. The final sale price was the opening bid of 65,000 GBP, or just a hair over $100,000 USD at today’s exchange rates.

Could it be the new owner of Ad.com looking to establish a legitimate claim to the Ad.com trademark that is in question? If so, then I don’t see a problem.

Wow, Science.org was a steal @ $20,000.
these are really costly and scary domains 😀
Looks like Boris Kreiman bought Science.org.
