Opening Bids Now Listed for Heritage Auctions Domain Auction

Last week, I reported that the inventory for the Heritage Auctions domain auction had been posted, although the opening bid prices and reserve prices were not yet listed. This afternoon, HA revealed the opening bid amounts, and I  listed the full inventory and starting prices below. The live auction is scheduled for November 21, 2013.

The actual auction reserve prices will be posted on November 14, and according to Aron Meystedt of Heritage Auctions, for now, we should “assume that most reserve prices are right around double the opening bid.”  One thing you’ll find unique for domain auctions but standard in the auction business is that winning bidders will pay a buyer’s premium rather than the domain sellers. The buyer’s premium amounts to 15% of a sale price. As an example, a $10,000 auction will have an actual price of $11,500.
