Best.CreditCard $10,900 – there’s already a credit card comparison site live on the domain. The buyer must have some experience that suggests that domains that span the dot like this work for SEO.
Fayr.com $6,200 – The buyer also owns the domain Fayr101.com, but that domain isn’t resolving right now.

ParkTerrace.com $5,000 – Hotelier Club Quarters bought the domain name, likely for a new hotel property.

Marajo.com $2,888 – A MarkMonitor client bought this domain name.
Landsoft.com $2,800 – The buyer appears to be in real estate, and this domain name would be good for software related to land sales.
Acmeo.com $2,700 – acmeo GmbH & Co. KG currently uses the domain name acmeo.EU.
HCG.io $2,600 – the whois currently shows Hoenick Consulting GmbH, making this an acronym domain.
DrinkingandDriving.com $2,377 – The owner of DrinkingandDriving.org was psyched to get this domain, as evidenced by the updated logo.
HealthyFood.com went up to $9,500 at Flippa earlier this week, but did not hit the reserve. Good for .food
The logo at drinkinganddriving.com has not changed in over 7 years. It is the donation shop for 501c3 nonprofit DrinkingAndDriving.Org. We REACQUIRED the domain from these predatory name snatchers. We weren’t psyched … we were extorted!
You mean you forgot to renew it?
Predatory?
You were irresponsible with your digital marketing asset by failing to renew it. You had a full 75 days to renew it after it expired but you still failed to even do that. How careless can you be? ICANN says once the 75 days are up, it’s first come, first serve to any new person who wants to register the domain name. That’s what happened. Be more careful with your valuable assets in the future. Why not go ahead and register the domain name for 10 years in advance, just in case you get careless again next year?
