WOW: New Record Of $53K For AutoGlass.co Highlights Another $500K In Land Rush .Co Auctions

2010 September 2
by Michael H. Berkens

The .Co registry has send me a 4th round of results for the ongoing .Co domain name Land Rush Application auctions.

(you can see previous results here, here and here)

The results are this time around is another record; $514,000 in sales on just 90 domains.

WOW

AutoGlass.co lead the way selling for $53,000.

Closely behind are two great legal domains, DuiAttorney.co and DuiLawyer.co which went for $44, 500 and $43K respectively.

As a holder of a large legal portfolio I couldn’t be happier with the result (I did NOT buy either of these, nor was I in the auction)

Some interesting Geo domains sold.

We had a separate post on Boulder.co which sold for $17,000.  Colorado.co sold for $7,900; a huge ski area telluride.co sold for $5,100 (I like that one better than Colorado.co) and durango.co went for just $2,800.  The auction for Denver.co is just starting today.

Once again these are closed auctions which only include those who made a land rush application for each of the domain in auction.

Since they are in closed auctions, not opened to anyone but the applicants, it could be fair to assume that prices of these domains were in an open auction would be higher.

No doubt that .Co remains the biggest story in the domain industry this year.

Congrats to all buyer.

    Where are the bidders who did not win these auctions? Many of us are happy to flip out to them at lower prices. I have AsbestosLawyers.co and RockyMountains.co, DowntownDenver.co, CherryCreek.co, Lodo.co and will happily sell for 10% of the prices I am seeking on similar domains like YellowStone.co and DuiLawyer.co. Is Yellow Stone even in Colorado? (no) :-) .

    Any advice for a long time buyer but first time seller?

    I have injurylawyer.co ….I guess it’s worth something but I still wouldn’t sell it now.

    Wow is right! I’m surprised by some of these sales numbers. Out of curiosity, I plugged a few of the domains into Valuate.com. (Yes, automated valuations certainly aren’t the final word on a domain’s value, but they can provide useful indicators.) Here are the results:

    AutoGlass.co $35
    Apply.co $35
    Dentists.co $30
    Boulder.co $25
    DuiAttorney.co $20
    DuiLawyer.co $15
    ===
    Total $160

    That’s a pretty huge discrepancy. True values are somewhere between $35 and $35,000, in the eye of the beholder. ;)

    Sneakers.co salary.co juice.com newyorkcity.co and others for a few thousand each??? What a bunch of uneducated derelicts selling these domains. They will sell for 10++++ times these prices and could have now! Real UNINTELLIGENT to put it nicely!!!

    “Sneakers.co salary.co juice.com newyorkcity.co and others for a few thousand each???”

    I think it funny that so many people make the .COM typo when referring to .CO

    It just shows how popular .COM is, and how confusion will just drive developed .CO traffic back to the .COM

    Sam,

    If you want to see more accurate values of .co’s, go to flipping.co. francois has a different formula for measuring a .co’s worth than you will see at valuate.com and it comes out to about 3-5% of the .com. Plus I would never take those appraisals too seriously. Quite often some sell for less and some for more.

    it’s good to see that .co is still getting good attention of the buyers. We also picked up a number of .co’s in various categories/market segments and are debating if we should develop them of leave an open playground for the buyer?

    What would you do with them – develop or sell as a combo?
