Company pays $35,000 to buy .com matching its .co domain.

Sedo’s top reported sale last week was cryptonews.com, but the domain is still in escrow so I can’t chart it as an end user. It probably will qualify as I doubt the buyer picked it up as an investment…but you never know.

A lot of end user sales this past week were by companies that own a ccTLD buying the matching .com domain. One paid $35,000 to get the .com to match its .co domain.

Here’s the list I uncovered: Click here to see the list…

A wireless company, lingerie seller and printing company bought domain names last month.

This week’s Sedo sales list was headlined by opensourcecms.com. It was an operating site and the buyer is some sort of dev shop, so you might be able to chart it as an end user sale, but should probably count it as a website sale. Instead of this domain, I’m going to skip to the number two sale Lumiant.com.

Lumiant.com was one of 14 end user sales I found on Sedo’s weekly sales list. Here they are:

(You can view previous lists like this here.)

Lumiant.com $17,500 – Lumiant is a materials science company.

Eyetime.com $15,000 – I’m going to chart this as an end user purchase even though I can’t find much about the buyer. It’s registered to “moonless project” with an email address ending in moonless.biz. That’s an inactive website. Still, the price suggests the buyer is an end user with plans for the domain.

MedStore .com $10,000 – The buyer is redirecting this domain to MedZstore.com.

Alley.co $6,000 – Alley Interactive is a design group in New York that uses the domain name alleyinteractive.com.

Reiko.com $5,601 – Reiko Wireless Inc. in New York.

Exosomes.com $5,500 – Kimera Labs, which develops exosome products. Exosomes, according to Wikipeida, “are cell-derived vesicles that are present in many and perhaps all eukaryotic fluids, including blood, urine, and cultured medium of cell cultures”.

Pledge.tv $4,999 – Online fundraising system Click & Pledge

BudgetHousing.com $4,995 – A company in India called DBS Affordable Home Strategy Ltd.

Kvest.com $4,850 – I’m not sure what research and design firm EarsAndEyes wants to do with this domain.

MyBusinessPhone.com $3,877 – LocalPhone Ltd, a phone service specializing in inexpensive international calling.

Lace.uk £2,995 – Denmark lingerie maker Lace.

Anytron.com $2,500 – BiTek technology appears to be in the printing business. It has a die-cutting system that it promotes at anytron.net.

Massk .com $2,200 – A company called BizVelop is creating a product called Massk that is a cosmetic mask…for your butt.

From BrokenBrain.com to OutofPlace.com, here are 17 domain names that were acquired by end users over the past week.

Crypto currency domain names remain hot, and one qualifies for our end user list this week. Other end users buying domains include a cow-tagging company, a business that helps you match the color of your carpet to fix bleach stains, and a diet guru.

Lots of domains are still in escrow at Sedo, so there were many more sales for more money that aren’t included in this list.

Here are 17 sales at Sedo that have cleared escrow and are in the hands of end users:

DubaiOffPlan.com $7,500 – A company in Dubai that offers “off plan” real estate. I had to look this term up. It basically means real estate that hasn’t been built yet, or pre-construction real estate deals.

BleachSpot.com $2,700 – The company that operates BleachStain.com offering a way to color match your carpet to fix stains from bleach. Oddly enough, I need this service.

Branditos.com €2,500 – Branding company Heyman Brandt DeGelmini.

Akadio.com $2,500 – HDF Group “ensures the sustainable development of HDF (Hierarchical Data Format) technologies and the ongoing accessibility of HDF-stored data”. I can’t figure out what this domain will be used for.

Other sales include a .com owner buying the matching .co.uk, a sports website company picking up a handball domain and an entrepreneur snapping up an alcohol-related .club domain name.

Here are 18 sales at Sedo that have cleared escrow and are in the hands of end users:

(You can view previous lists like this here.)

Trustwork.com $30,000 – Trustwork is a new technology development group.

SeedCompany.com $28,000 -The buyer is using Whois privacy but has switched the nameservers to AWS. You will undoubtedly see a site on this domain soon.

ItaliaInnovation.com $10,000 – The domain forwards to innovationfoundries.com, which has a program called Italia Innovation.

Vector.co.uk £7,999 – Vector Informatik GmbH is an embedded electronics company. It uses the domain name Vector.com.

CoBase.com $5,882 – Financial Transaction Services BV in Amsterdam. The name looks like “Coinbase”, doesn’t it?

HousingMarket.com $5,000 – A Texas company called Housing Market LLC bought this domain and has started a content site on it.

Memoryfoammattress-topper.com $4,500 – And they said exact match hyphenated domains were dead! OK, I don’t know who the buyer is, but they clearly bought it for some of its existing links and traffic.

MyTheresa.dk €4,000 – MyTheresa.com, a high fashion clothing site.

AngelsEvents.com $3,500 – As best I can tell, the buyer is Angels Bespoke Events in France, which uses the domain angelsbespokeevents.com.

AirportFirst.com $2,000 – National Aviation Services Co. in Kuwait.

An Alaskan native corporation, a mall manager in Kuwait and a metal company in Korea bought domain names.

Many of Sedo’s top sales from the past week are still clearing the transfer process, so this week’s list of end user domain name purchases is missing some of the bigger ones.

For example, we don’t yet know who paid $18,000 for AcaiBerry.com. It could be an end user, but this price isn’t crazy as an investment, either.

One thing is for sure: the list is rather global, covering businesses from the Middle East to South Korea.

I found 14 sales above $2,000 at Sedo this past week that were end user purchases: Click here to see the list…
