There are some high-value domains for sale in auctions right now that should result in great sales next week.
For example, Sedo/GreatDomains is currently running an auction for Bond.com. Bidding is currently at $66,666 with more than 4 days left; the reserve has not yet been met. Not only might this domain get type-ins every time a new James Bond movie comes out (it would be foolish to feature James Bond content or ads under this domain, though), but this domain is extremely valuable due to its meaning in finance.
Another interesting Sedo auction is XP.com. Bidding on this two-letter domain with content is at $499,000 and the reserve on this one has not been met, either. According to Sedo it is in the $500,000 to $1,000,000 range, so it’s possible the next bid will push it above the minimum.
If you like red wine you might also like Chianti.com. This domain can be bought at Sedo, too, with a current bid of $5,100. Then Sedo/GreatDomains has a bunch of other domains where bidding is still below the name’s value, in my opinion: ProGolfers.com ($70), Pizzerias.com ($1,050), Sold.co.uk (£2,500), Postal.com ($20,000), Whiskey.net ($6,000), OMA.com (€11,000; not only a three-letter domain, but “Oma” is also German for Grandma), Directories.com ($800) and many more.
Over at TDNAM, another top-notch domain is waiting for willing buyers: Villas.com. Bidding is currently at $28,000, needless to say that the reserve has not yet been exceeded. This domain has been on the market for some time now. It was previously marketed together with other top domains such as Villas.eu, Villas.info, Villas.mobi and Villas.es as well as variations of the name, potential magazine titles and related intellectual property. I was one of the brokers who promoted this high-value portfolio at that time, but no buyer was found (back then, the owner was looking for offers in the neighborhood of $5 million). Now that Villas.com is for sale as-is (the Villas.com trademark is included in the sale, though), it will be interesting to observe the auction to see how high bidding will go and whether it will reach the minimum price. Although I don’t know any details about the TDNAM auction, I guess the reserve should be somewhere in the $500K-$1M range. The domain is definitely worth much more than that.
And for those looking for German domains, Sedo has some for sale with low bids at the moment: neidlos.de (€100), InternetFlatRate.de (€300), Knackarsch.de (€1,200), Sachgebiet.de (€65) and Routenplaner.com (€99).
DomainTools also has some auctions raring to go: The DomainTools Live Auction held at the Domain Roundtable Conference in San Francisco will begin tomorrow. Online bidding is open already. Domains for sale include SanFranciscoBayArea.com, Invites.com, FG.com, ProductLawyer.com, Smash.com, DomainNameTransfer.com, Renewals.com, Motorsports.com, Retire.net, Keyword.net, ParkStreet.com, RetirementInvestments.com and several others. Most domains do not have bids, yet.
