Twice Sold for $22k, Undergraduate.com in “On Hold” Status

At the top of NameJet’s “The Drop” list of domain names that are pending delete is the Undergraduate.com domain name. It has been registered at Uniregistry, and it is currently in “On Hold” status until it deletes, at which point drop catching services will compete to grab it and re-register the domain name.

Undergraduate.com is quite valuable, and the domain name has been sold publicly at least twice before. NameBio shows two public sales records:

  • $22,000 via Sedo in May of 2011
  • $22,301 via NameJet in March of 2014

Once the domain name drops and is caught by a third party, the domain name creation date will reflect its 2018 registration.

At the present time, I can see that there are 65 bids on this domain name at NameJet, with a high bid of $1,700. I do not believe there is a way to see how many backorders there are at DropCatch.com, but I am sure there are many. Both of these companies will be fighting to get this domain name as soon as it becomes available in a little less than three days.

Assuming it goes into auction, it will be interesting to see if the domain name sells for more or less than before.
