The new weekly domain sales report is out at DNJournal.com and it was another blockbuster week. Our new leader went for over $150,000 to rank among the top three sales reported so far this year. Every domain on the Top Ten cracked the five-figure mark and the New TLD's had half a dozen sales at the four figure level including a nice $5,000 .info. Read all about it through the link below:

DNJournal.com Weekly Domain Sales Report

Excellent report Duke and the sales are awesome!

Just a small note: I see vast.com in my SnapNames history as being $25,805 whereas you have it as $25K...not a vast difference though

Hmmm...I see Xedoc Holding's porker.com going to poker.com (prolly as an affiliate)...I thought it was going to be a website about pork

MI5.com for $18.4K...what I've learned so far from this website is an interesting math lesson: BBC + ITN = MI5. Hmmm....

surely noone would pay six figures for porker.com? how the hell is that name gonna get enough poker typeins to justify that price. im confuzzled.

porker.com sounds like a great typo.

I nice pickup by Mr Chad also.

You are correct fizz - doublechecked my notes on that and have corrected the error. Thanks!

"3. BRE.info €1,500 = $1,846 Sedo
4. ERE.info €1,400 = $1,723 Sedo"

looks like they were both bought by the same person, crazy prices if the hope is resell them.

Happy to help, Duke!

Probably not as crazy as paying $75K for GLU.com...obviously only if the buyer is hoping to to re-sell it.

Looks like this is an old well established company:

Does make me wonder why it dropped. Owner died perhaps?

Apparently purchased by www.macrospace.com

Not reserve for a Tom Cruise fan site?

LOL Goh, the 4th sequel...or for 007?

A useless comment. Some of com sales are plain ridiculous. I check traffic for those famous typos etc, and their traffic are not impressive at all (alexa). One possible reason. (very) big guys buy those names just for speculation and keeping com at the top. Cost is very small compared to protecting com brand.
(It doesn't bother me.)

Do you honestly think domainers create the demand from end users through high price transactions that have little take-up outside of the domain world?
