    We got the results from the moniker silent auction site, by searching for all sold names.

    I have not seen the list posted anywhere else

    Hmmm this is unusual that only 5 domain names where sold at the moniker auction.

    In some way I can understand why since many domain name owners do not want to list their domain names for sale with a reserve price set next to nothing so the buyers at the auction buy the domain name by paying next to nothing and then reselling the domain name in a couple of months and then they make a GREAT profit.

    I don’t think you can compare the trade show auctions with the TRAFFIC auction or SnapNames live auctions.

    These tradeshows don’t get more than 10-30 people in the room for the live part of the auction.

    In these small shows you have to price your domains as many sell on one bid. However at shows like TRAFFIC there are hundreds of people bidding so you need to price your name to attract bids.
