The domain GoVideo.com sold on Namejet.com today for $18,100.
The domain has an Alexa rank of under 2M and according to Compete gets between 1K-3K visitors a month.
The domain used to be owned by an electronics company that made dual VCR/VCR & DVD/VCR devices but that day pretty much came and went and today the domain name went for $18K.
Here are a couple of other interesting domain that went on NameJet.com in the last few days.
| paigowpoker.com | $6,900 |
| childsupport.net | $5,664 |
| 75k.com | $5,600 |
| mychallenge.com | $4,002 |
| guna.com | $3,700 |
| certifiedpersonaltrainer.com | $3,310 |
| ewallstreet.com | $2,588 |
| wnews.com | $1,400 |
I love it when people bid up to $18,100 without checking the existing trademarks first 😀
Hi Mike,
I have a question: How do I check if the domain name I am interested has trademark or not? I’d really appreciate your help. Thank you!
@New
for what it’s worth, I go here to check:

New: to check on registered or pending US marks, go to http://uspto.gov

I hope to find (someday) what is the “secret” to sell long domain names at high prices, so, I’ll (finally) be able to sell the domains I own… 😐

GoVideo is a very nice one for a youtube type site.
I wonder if world news snapped up wnews ?
They have some great domains in their huge network like dubai.com, abudhabi.com, students.com, oil.com, pertrol.com, gas.com, solarpower.com, sailboats.com, cartoons.com…and many more.

“oil.com, pertrol.com, gas.com”
three excellent domains, indeed 🙂
.
Also, CrudeOil.com to compliment the others.

That company is probably out of business and the trademarks therefore may be meaningless
.
and sun.com (owned by Oracle) or wind.com (parked)
.
Just because govideo went out business does not mean the TM is gone.
If a firm bought it in bankruptcy and are using it somewhere means it still exist.
However, that might not be the case since they did not update the TM ownership.
I wouldn’t start a company using the domain until I knew if anyone bought the intangible asset.
Most of us know this. I’m just mentioning it for the investors just entering the domain biz.
Hello Peter and Acro,
Thanks for your help. Greatly appreciated!
