Picks from the Great Domains Auction

Sedo is running a Great Domains auction beginning today, and I want to share some of my top picks for the auction. The auction ends on December 8, and many of the domain names have reserves.

Listed below are my favorites from the auction along with the reserve price range. Feel free to leave a comment with your favorite(s) from the auction.

  • Modeling.com  ($100,000 – 249,999 USD) – Can be used by a fashion model agency or by a statistical / database modeling company.
  • Stunner.com   ($1 – 499 USD) – Great brand name for under $500.
  • TCP.com ($5,000 – 9,999 USD) – Three good letters and LLL .com names are almost always liquid.
  • Orangutans.com  ($500 – 999 USD) – An animal name for under $1k is usually a good deal. Start a sports team 🙂
  • Accommodates.com ($1 – 499 USD) – May not be the exact match term, but for under $500 it’s solid.
  • Making.com ($5,000 – 9,999 USD) – Great action domain name

FYI, the link is NOT an affiliate link – it’s a tracking code I am not being paid for this post nor was I asked to post it I also don’t have any names in the auction nor did I do a Whois search to see who owns what.

Moniker Auction Ends This Afternoon

Moniker’s end of year auction, currently running on Snapnames, is ending this afternoon at 3:15pm EST. I highlighted my favorite domain names from this auction a couple of weeks ago, so no need to re-hash those selections.

Listed below are the domain names that currently have bids, although some of the reserve prices have not been met. Most notably, CE.com has a $1,000,000 bid, although the reserve price is apparently higher than $1 million and the auction page states that the reserve has not been met.

If you have an interest in any of the domain names, now is the time to head over to Snapnames to place your bids (or at least set a reminder for later this afternoon).

Domain Name Reserve Price Current High Bid
paternitytest.com $5,001 – $10,000  $21,500
fyny.com No Reserve  $375
omib.com No Reserve  $351
qx.com $50,001 – $100,000  $82,500
apw.com $10,001 – $25,000  $12,999
mentality.com $5,001 – $10,000 $6,751
conp.com No Reserve  $375
ce.com $1MM – $5MM  $1,000,000
f.biz $10,001 – $25,000  $10,001
mock.com $10,001 – $25,000  $10,000
yogurtshops.com No Reserve  $300

.CO Auction at Pool Ends at Noon (EST)

The .CO domain auction currently taking place at Pool will be ending in about an hour and a half, at noon EST. Since the domain names have no reserve price, I believe almost all (if not all) have bids on them right now.

Six auctions currently have bids over $1,000, and InjuryLawyers.CO currently has a high bid of over $10,000. Keep in mind, you must have an account at Pool to bid (with a credit card on file).

At the moment, the ten domain names with the highest bid prices are:

  • injurylawyers.co $10,100
  • omg.co $2,500
  • hub.co $1,350
  • seoul.co $1,300
  • legacy.co $1,050
  • accidentlawyers.co $1,025
  • standard.co $875
  • getaway.co $830
  • insight.co $825
  • lawn.co $824

Moniker / Snapnames Year End Auction

Moniker and Snapnames has released the list of domain names that are included in this year’s Year End domain auction.

Premium .CO Domain Auction Starts

I mentioned this briefly yesterday, but today I have more information about the premium .CO auction on Pool  that begins today at noon and runs through November 7. This is a no reserve auction, and anyone who registers on Pool can bid on the domain names.

The auction is a “re-auction” of domain names from the original .CO landrush. I believe some of the names had initially been auctioned but bidders didn’t pay.

Listed below are the 100 domain names that are set to be auctioned. I bolded my favorites – keep in mind that I may bid on one or more auction.

1. 8888.co
2. aam.co
3. accidentlawyers.co
4. alec.co
5. anthony.co
