Afternic reported its weekly sales results, and the leading sale was Puzzle.com at $500,000. This ranks as the second highest publicly reported sale of 2011, in a tie with GamesForGirls.com. This domain name was a NameMedia property, and it was acquired by a company in Amsterdam. It’s not clear how the domain name will be used yet.
EJU.com was the second leading sale of the week, just shy of $100,000. This also appears to be a NameMedia house sale. Overall, Afternic sold $1.06 million in public .com domain names (above $1,000/each) this past week.

I think IncomeProducingProperties.com was acquired by Mr Schwartz, he posted about it this week I believe.
Which is greater, puzzle.com or puzzles.com? I think puzzle is more brandable, while puzzles would be more of a category killer.
Is WWWFUTBOLTOTAL.com a typo? The only thing I’m seeing in Google is futboltotal.com.mx & futboltotal.com.co, and futboltotal.com doesn’t resolve. Maybe I’m missing something, but that is one of the worst names I’ve seen in a while.
I personally like Puzzle.com… would be an interesting brand name. Not sure what it’s going to turn into yet.
Congrats to Afternic – great sales!!
I also agree, Puzzle.com is definitely better in my book that Puzzles.com
If you don’t mind answering how many names do you sell on afternic every year?
@ Steve
I don’t mind. From memory, I’ve sold 100% of my domain names on my own, without assistance from aftermarket sites or brokers. I am a full time domain investor though, so it’s essential that I sell my domain names and I am more aggressive than most.
Thanks, …. didn’t mean to offend you.
@ Steve
No offense taken 🙂 I have some of my names listed for sale, but I generally seek out buyers or negotiate with interested parties on my own.
eju.com $96,000
eju.co $15,000
