HBO buys a potential show-related domain other end user domain name sales.
Sedo sold $1.2 million worth of domain names last week. That seems to include about $200k from the Chinese IDN auction it held in China a while back.
Here are some of Sedo’s sales to end users. You can see previous lists here.
RDH.com $29,000 – RDH Building Engineering Ltd. in Vancouver. They’ve been using the longer acronym domain name RDHBE.com.
RiverSoftware.com $25,000 – this domain is under privacy but it’s clearly an end user purchase.
Flipcart.cn 5,000 EUR, Flipkart.pl and Flipcart.nl 3,500 EUR each – Flipkart, a sort of Amazon.com for India.
TrueToTheEnd.com $1,998 – HBO, perhaps for True Blood?
Greentube.pt 1,750 EUR – Online gaming company GreenTube.
Autoland24.de 1,299 EUR – Autoland Deutschland
DisabledHolidays.co.uk 1,200 GBP – Travel tour operator Discovery Holidays Ltd.
Catasys.com 900 GBP – Catasys, a health management service focusing on substance abuse. It uses the longer domain CatasysHealth.com.
Nube.co $1,500 – Microsoft. Nube is Spanish for “cloud”. Microsoft doesn’t own Nube.com. UDPATE: Microsoft is listed on the whois for the domain, but has been for a long time. It seems perhaps that they’ve sold it but it hasn’t transferred yet.
Sexpectations.com $3,680 – Lab test company Quest Diagnostics. We’ll have to see what they use this one for!
PhotosUnlimited.com $1,000 – Bankrupt photography company CPI Corp. There’s chatter about Photos Unlimited and CPI here.
EldoradoResorts.com $3,799 – Eldorado Resorts LLC in Nevada
Nube.co was sold by MSFT not bought by….
Nube = Cloud in spanish…
😉
Good catch on MSFT being the seller. It’s still listed as them in whois, so I assumed they were the buyer.
