Some bargains here for sure.
Once again auctions prove to be the least appropriate way to sell domains. Everyday sales are what makes a market, not auctions.
Haven’t we seen enough about how highly unindicative of the market auctions are? The last TRAFFIC auction and every Snapnames auction is proof enough. People get all excited about auctions because there is always the chance of getting something cheap, a competition unfolding and a price skyrocketing. The latter happens so infrequently that it’s not even worth it to get worked-up over it.
If auctions are indicators of market value, I would suggest the whole industry is turning into shambles. The showing of .com at TRAFFIC was appauling, if you believe that auctions are prime indicators. I don’t. As Joe said, the daily sales are what count. The end-user sales. And thank heaven for that. We all know that re-sellers do most of the bidding at auctions so expecting to see record prices at auctions or to extrapolate an extension’s performance to the extension’s market as a whole, is ridiculous. It happens occasionally, but not often.
ie This auction doesn’t mean an awful lot.
I second em’s post and I’ll add that the upcoming Sedo .CO “Premium” Auction is even more useless: the first names that are scheduled to be auctioned are far from being “premium”, I’d call those of “medium quality” and I’d be optimist. I thought only newbies selling their domains on forums abused the word “premium”.
incredibly low prices for domains like omg.co hub.co seoul.co standard.co seocompany.co etc.co dogfood.co assets.co 8888.co fin.co
O.co Shutters at Least Three Businesses, As It Questions New Commerce Models

LLL.Co
wholesale prices have gone through the roof.
With average sale price looking to be around $400.
Remember auction prices are generally the low end of the spectrum.
So you can bet the end user price is going to be 5x – 10x times that.
Haha
I am in the lead now for
hub.co
for $1,350
plus I’m bidding a several others. see what happens.
also when is the auction set to end.
it says 1 hour left on mine, not 3:00pm EST
oops, I made a mistake.
Just recalculated the current average
LLL.Co
bid price on pool and it is closer to looks like now $650
so $650 now for LLL.Co s in general. And this is suppose to be wholesale auction price remember.
“We also believe that our current efforts to rebrand ourselves from Overstock.com to O.co may have contributed to the decline in revenue.”
currently, pool.com shows the .Co auctions to start closing in about 30 minutes……versus the 3 pm est listed above
this message sent at 9:41 am est
it’s a flop.co
pool.com now shows 1 hour left for the .Co auctions
InjuryLawyers.Co leading at $10,100
I just checked the end time stamp (in GMT) and now the auctions are changed to 17:05 – which is around 11 am CST.
They initially were supposed to end right around now – does anyone know why it got changed?
“does anyone know why it got changed”
maybe, try to avoid a flop?
top10.com were so proud of top10.co site (http://domainnamewire.com/2011/03/30/top10-co-explains-its-choice-of-co-for-new-web-site/ )
Cointernet even underlined their site etc. Now there is not any more top10.co website just redirection to .com
@rober cline
You are so funny guy. how may .co`s did you sell?.
I remember when you were squirrled like a pig before renewal and I do not expect any difference next time.
domains `approved` at .co premium sedo auction belongs to the same person and they were `approved` extremely quickly.
I remember first sedo .co auction they `approved` many Mike Mann`s domains so there was not place for other people.
But actually what I can expect from sedo, they still talk rubbish to people how parking is wonderful.
I meant squealing

The way this auction is going my
LLL.Co’s
will be returning me 1500% – 2000% return
The dozen or so at this auction is averaging an incredible $700/LLL.Co right now.
all the naysayers are being proven wrong.
.Co domain name valuations have been going up nice and gradually.
.Mobi had true believers for years after launch. .Co turd looks to be ready to be flushed down the toilet a year after launch. With this trend new extensions will prob find themselves flushed down the toiled during initial launch.
Anyone got final sales data for these? I cannot find what these domains closed at anywhere on the Internet.
