Sedo.com Sells Fr.cc for $50K Wow

by

Maybe lost in the Sedo.com sales report this week was this stunner;

FR.cc sold for $50,000.

By far the largest .cc domain sale I can remember for a very, very long time.

The domain is still pending transfer so its unclear who the buy is but its quite a price for a two letter .cc as two letter .net’s and org’s have sold for much less.

    I’ve long contended that .cc will someday (15+ years from now) overtake .com, as .cc is the easiest extension to type in (one letter, typed twice).

    I’ll bet we’ll be seeing some terrible .cc domains hitting the appraisal forums soon.

    So how long exactly have you contended this and how much money will you waste waiting for that ship to come in?

    As I have said many times before,

    short domain names in all extensions are rare and are jewels

    to be cherished.

    I think short LLL s in the following .com , .Co, and .net extensions are especially special.

    I wonder if there was a website involved, because the domain leads to a site offering free, short email addresses, among them @fr.cc, mostly catering to French people.
