GoCarts.com Sells For $60K On NameJet.com, $30K Less Than 2 Years Ago

by

Looks like someone just lost $30,000 on its purchase of GoCarts.com

The domain name GoCarts.com sold just over two years ago on NameJet.com for $91,600

In a domain auction just concluded on NameJet.com today GoCarts.com just sold for $60,100

That’s $30,500 lower than July 2009 the last time it sold on NameJet.com

Ouch.

Oh yeah there is that 15% commission NameJet.com charges, meaning the seller will only net out about $51K or $40K less

Double Ouch

The only good news is for the 6 people that correctly picked GoCarts.com to sell for more than Warez.com on our poll.

We will see what premium domain winds up selling for more, but for now GoCarts.com is in the lead.

and the Poll is closed

    Well, it was overpriced in 2009. “Go Carts” is way less popular than “Go Karts” in every metric.

    Ouch!!

    Never mind, what they lose on one they might gain back on another….with a bit of luck.

    And as someone else has already pointed out it is in actuality a typo, perhaps a special case typo

    I have 5 kart sites and this is so overpriced its not even funny.
    Get ready to get a bunch of useless traffic confused with golfcarts
    and the K version is so far ahead on traffic etc , this domain is maybe a 15-20k max
    They offered it to me a 2 years ago. I told them the same thing
    A waste of money
