Breaking Report: Sex.com To Sell for $13 Million – Pending Court Approval

An article in the Register this morning is reporting that Sex.com has been sold by Sedo for $13 million. According to the article, the buyer is Clover Holdings LTD, and there were 12 companies that placed bids on the domain name. The article cited California Bankruptcy Court documents, and court approval is needed for this sale to be transacted.

I’ve reached out to Sedo and a few other parties who are familiar with the domain sale for comment, and I will post more information as it comes.

More to come…
