Rudin Web Solutions out of Switzerland has a new site up on SimilarSales.com. The site provides historical sales data and I don’t know if they are just using NameBio.com to collect their data or if they have their own proprietary system for gathering sales data. The site is not as up to date yet as NameBio as the recent sales data was not showing anything for 3/3 or 3/4. They are incorporating data from BuyDomains and NetFleet.com.au along with Flippa, 4.cn and Park.io. One of the problems with some exchanges is posting them right away, a Flippa auction that just ended may not get paid and get relisted.
One of the more interesting features is a flips and flops section, I have checked this out and it is interesting but requires the user to do some more research to verify the accuracy.
Now if we take a look at CreditCheck.io it is listed as a flop, the data shows the name sold for $150 and a loss of $1,250. You can click the link and get this page:
But CreditCheck.io was purchased in bulk on Flippa with 5 other .io domains
Here is a link to the auction in Feb/2015
So I just point out that you should play around with the flips and flops, it is interesting, but more research may be needed.
Hat Tip to Josh Sexton for pointing this site out.

Indeed, verifying the data is the key. Always wait about a month with Flippa’s alike to check whether it was paid or not. Still, the market places et al could be more transparent.

Just a word to the wise with our reporting:
We’ll soon by syncing up with Namebio to provide more real-time sales stats.
Meantime, the most accurate reporting is via our weekly blog rundown.
Sales reported on our blog are 99% confirmed and in most cases the domains have already changed hands. I say 99% and not 100% because there is just about 1 out of 100 whereby it goes into Escrow and looks promising, but something happens to reverse the sale.
RWS says
Kevin, it would make more sense to provide a public feed for those confirmed sales rather than syncing with just one website.
Lara says
This would make the domain markets open and be fare to all the players. Not that Flippa wants to stimulate unfair competition 😉 totally with RWS on this one.
Raymond Hackney says
Exactly, do just like Sedo does a feed for domain sales, when you have been paid your success fee on a successful closed transaction update the feed.

Unless it was a private sale, then you may hide the price tag.
