Sedo’s Great Domains January 2016 Auction Results

Sedo’s Great Domains auction for January ended yesterday. There were 24 domain names that sold in the auction, and the auction grossed over $115,000.

The two highest sales of the auction were three letter .com domain names (LLL.com). GWH.com sold for $57,306 USD and VKN.com sold for $24,900. The third highest sale was 4820.com, which sold for 12,501 EUR (approximately $13,642 USD at today’s exchange rates.

Since the auction ended yesterday afternoon, I would not anticipate that any of these deals have closed yet. As such, they should not be recorded as sales until Sedo publishes its weekly  sales report and lists the domain names as sold. Also, there were other good domain names that did not meet reserve. If you’re interested in buying any of those, you should be in touch with a broker from Sedo.

Here are the results of the January Great Domains auction:

Looking at Sedo’s Top 10 Sales of 2015

Sedo shared a list of the top ten public sales that were transacted on its marketplace in 2015. Only the top sales that were publicly reported are included in this list, and I think it would look quite different had all of its top sales been reported.

Several of the sales were written about around the time they occurred, although the majority of acquisitions were not covered. It looks like only one or two of the top sales were transacted via Sedo’s monthly Great Domains auctions, although I could be mistaken.

I want to share the top 10 public sales of 2015 that were transacted on Sedo and have a look at how the domain names are being used today:

Great Domains Auction Results: HSZ.com is Top Sale

Sedo’s monthly Great Domains auction concluded this afternoon, and the auction results have been published below. The auction resulted in over $200,000 worth of sales and 24 domain names were sold.

The largest sale of the auction went to HSZ.com, which sold for 65,580 EUR (roughly $71,700 at today’s exchange rate). BMV.com sold for $41,125 and OZX.com sold for $24,999. The four largest sales of the month were for 3 letter .com domain names, and many of the other sales were short domain names.

The full list of December Great Domains sales is below. Keep in mind that the auction concluded today and these sales are not officially closed until Sedo reports them in the weekly sales reports. Some sales take longer to close than others.

Results From Sedo’s Numeric .Club Auction

Sedo ran a numeric auction in conjunction with the .Club registry, and the auction concluded today. Sedo shared the results of the auction, which netted $44,727 in total sales. I have published the results of the no reserve auction below.

From what I understand, all of the domain names that were put up for auction were sold. Obviously since the auction ended this afternoon, all of these auctions should be considered “pending sales,” until they are paid and transferred. I would imagine the sales will all be reported to NameBio once they close.

The top three sales were triple repeating numbers – 555.Club, 111.Club, and 666.Club. The next few sales had the number 8 in them. 16 auctions had bids greater than $1,000. The lowest value sale was 544.Club, which sold for $169.

In total, 37 NNN.Club domain names were sold today.

Here is the full list of domain name sales from today’s .Club numeric auction:
