A software company, chatbot customer service tech company and padlock maker bought domain names.
DNW readers tell me they get a lot of value out of the end user domain sales lists. Unfortunately, these are going to be much harder to create with obscured Whois records. It can still be done, but I’ll have to rely more on use of domain names than on Whois information.
Because of travel and covering other topics over the past couple of weeks, I’m a bit behind on end user reports. I was able to capture some Whois info before it went dark, though, so I will release some of the recent sales that have taken place.
This list includes sales from Sedo’s 5-21 list. You can see previous lists like this here.

Yes, I believe “Domain Selling Winter” is upon us.
Fewer inquiries.
Even premium domains, and I know the moniker “premium” has different meanings for the hundreds of domains.
For me, a premium domain is almost a liquid asset that can be sold expeditiously for a decent amount, and as low as 5 figures.
Others, especially those who acquired premium domains in the 90s for registration fees, or the algo-name-drop domain gang who acquired handsome premium domain portfolios in the early aughts, then strolled into semi-retirement before reaching the age of 30 and network and play among the .5% of the planet.
Names in my portfolio that received weekly inquiries and so-so offers from 2007- early 2018 seldom come, and when they do, the offers are somewhere south of :low ball”.
No doubt the super premium domain brokers and domainers on the block still can fetch handsome offers, as attested by the uber domain brokers Jen Sale and Andrew Rosener on this blog via podcast or comments.
I still receive the “surprise” high offer for a domain, and inevitably it comes from a broker on Marksmen or one of the other IP agencies — merely because their client(s) decided to rebrand, or name a new product offering with a name I own.
For those who own domains like doc.com, md.com, gene.com, loans.com, super premium domains like this,no doubt you will have no problems continuing with your current lifestyle(s).
But those with non-super premium domains in our portfolios, these times could be challenging indeed, especially for those whose main source of income is via domain sales. (Thank God mine is not, so my kids; college tuitions still get paid)
