Our Picks From The TRAFFIC Premium Auction Today At 3:45pm PST

June 9, 2010 by Michael Berkens

RickLatona.com will be holding the live premier auction from the TRAFFIC show in Vancouver today  at 3:45pm PST, 6:45 EST.

Online bidding will be available on Proxibid.

We have gone through the entire list of around 200 domains.

We start with the domain names that should definitely sell which includes all of the three letter .com which have a reserve of $1,500-$5K.

There were a bunch of these at TRAFFIC Milan and I think all of them sold.

AXG.com

AXJ.com

AXQ.com

CQX.com

GEQ.com

IYW.com

NJQ.com

PJQ.com

VQW.com

XXE.com

XYZ.com

Of course out the bunch the best buy far is XYZ.com and it already has a high bid of $17,755.

There are other 3 letter .Com’s in the auction that are priced from $5K-$20K:

DWQ.com

GOQ.com

HAA.com

ORQ.com

QHP.com

RRZ.com

UUY.com

XTS.com

The best domains in this auction are undoubtedly the following .Net’s that have a stated starting reserve range of $100K+

Pizza.Net

Cars.Net

Jewelry.Net

Each one of these is a category killer and each represent one of the best .net’s on the planet.

Through an e-mail I received from the Domain owners agent I can tell you that Pizza.net has a starting reserve of $180K.

Sex.net and Porn.net have sold for more than double this amount so it would seem to be a great buy.

Its certainly unusually for the best domains in an auction to be .Net’s but that the case in this auction.

Beyond the three letter .com’s and the .net’s above here is the rest of my picks:

SenseOfHumor.com $1-$1,500
VisitJerusalem.com $1-$1,500
KosherProducts.com $1,501-5,000
RespiratoryTherapists.com $1,501-5,000
SecurityGuards.net $1,501-5,000
SpaDirectory.com $1,501-5,000

    When you say “our,” what do you mean? Isn’t this your blog? Don’t you mean “my picks?”

    LS

    You definitely could make the argument that for a general brandable 3 letter .com, XYZ.com is hard to beat

    Don’t forget about MAJ.com.

    There was a total of $811,200 in bids that were, “pass.” So there was more $$ left on the table than on domains that actually were sold, including six figures for Pizza.net, Cars.net, and CreditCard.net. These are the bids on the 2- and 3-letter that were “pass:”

    CFJ.com: $5000
    VQW.com: $4000
    07.org: $2200
    CQX.xom: $4750
    PJQ.com: $4400
    ORQ.com: $8250
    AXG.com: $4500
    AXJ.com: $4500
    AXQ.com: $3500
    GJ.net: $8000
    NJQ.com: $4000
    UUY.COM: $4000
    CNE.co.uk: $700

    So lots of your pics are accounted for, MHB.
