Christian.com Sold for $600,000 via Sedo

Sedo broker Dave Evanson just announced via Twitter that he brokered the sale of Christian.com for $600,000:

Once the sale is archived on DNJournal by Ron Jackson, it will rank as the fifth largest sale of the year (to date). The sale will rank above the $550,000 sale of Inception.com and below the $750,000 sale of Liquid.com.

According to NameBio, Christian.com last publicly sold in 2009 for the same $600,000 price. Because the domain name has had privacy enabled on the Whois registration, I am unsure if the same registrant that bought the domain name in 2009 sold it this week.

It appears that Christian.com had been owned by a company in Russia. At the moment, Christian.com is in Sedo’s escrow account, so the buyer is not yet known. It will be interesting to see if the domain name is acquired because of its religious meaning or if it was acquired as an unrelated brand name.

  1. For most names the market is weak, this is a good example of it. Any keyword style name is left behind. Watch as Toys.com achieves a similar or worse result than 10 years ago.
