I think Sedo and Internic sold 1 Mil+ in domains last week. You would think Sedo had enough webmasters on payroll to make logging in a little more effiecient. Maybe soon hopefully.
@ Robert Cline
I would be bidding 5 x times more if i didn’t have to god damn login everytime I had to bid.

So there is one of the SHILL’S bidders confessing right here and now …
James Kim is your real name …
So SHILL lets see how many you end up owning, (winning) NONE!
Karl here before I go to get rest. One of the reasons I sale a steady amount of domains as I said before in a previous post is because I own my own site that is Not an auction. And yes I am on Sedo too, but most of my sales come from my own site.
I believe 2 trends are beginning to shape up. Number one, a lot more domain buyers rather hit a “buy Now” button and purchase out-right and number two they definitely don’t want shills inflating prices on domains they want so they are choosing normal domain websites where they can make offers, negotiate or buy now.
@ Robert
Being such a .CO fan, and with this once in a lifetime opportunity to bid on so many premium generic .CO names, it will be interesting to see which ones you end up winning.
Keep up updated…

when i search for
“Sedo auctions” (without the quotes) in Google
Zoop.co is 9th in my list
nice job Chris
Casino.CO is at $40,000
Estibot values coCASINO.co higher than Casino.co
@coCasino.co
“Shop.Co will sell for $300K+ in this auction…at a minimum.
I expect LasVegas.Co to sell for $500K+ and Casino.Co for $650K+”
Great predictions there Nostradamus.

@Brad,
Casino.Co could still get there – $1,000 at a time.
more kool-aid…
so much for the .com is a typo.
Really and truly poor results , low bids very few bidders (most had 2 guys) , not a suprise I say even much lower results all around then .mobi in it’s best days.
The casino bids seem shill-y …
In additon they are not sold till they are paid and change hands.
down the hill now…
@domo,
As much as I hate to admit it, your take on the casino bids makes sense.
I got to see a 60,000 bid on casino.co that was immediately canceled by Sedo (closing the auction) , whatever the reason (most likely fake or shill)
Good for them .! to do the right thng.
I saw that too…wow…
I just hit refresh – the auction is still going – top bid is $60K…don’t know what happened a little bit ago.
smelly stuff.
If it was reopened.
Auction is over – $60K for casino.co – didn’t sell.
I missed it, any idea how many sold ?

As anyone may see from all my previous post it is the .COMs that sell, sell sell.
Quite possibly many people did not realize GoDaddys Super Bowl commercial regarding the .COs did not fair very well.
Anyway I agree with Aniol’s post that is was interesting to see that most bids were on the Spanish domains. With a little luck maybe I will sell VisasNorthAmericanas.com “It translates to American Visas.
no It doesn’t…
get a better dictionary…
(north doesn’t exist in spanish)
I don’t understand people posting their names in desperation…
Not desperation by no means my friend. I just sold one Today for $25,000.
My Spanish is not the best and translation was from Google. However I
appreciate the heads up. I will ask my amigo what he thinks.
The reason I added the domain in my post is because I felt like it.
