What domain names Samsung and others bought this week

Samsung bought a Galaxy domain name and other end user sales.

Did Samsung learn its lesson after being found guilty of reverse domain name hijacking? This time it bought Galaxy domain rather than trying to get it through a cybersquatting claim.

This week’s end user sales list starts with four country code domain names including an IDN.

Here’s the list of end user sales from the past week. You can view previous lists like this here.

Stühle.de €9,999 – Stühle translates to ‘chairs’ in German. Forwards to BusinessAngels.de, an investment company that supports online projects in various industries or founders of new companies. Did it buy this IDN to launch an ecommerce site selling chairs?

Partys.de €5,355- Forwards to Party.de, an online German party superstore with party supplies including balloons, party decor and a full array of costumes. This looks like a defensive registration.
