“Just how big is the television sales market?
“It is estimated that over 40 million LCDs will be sold in 2012, and LCD’s only make up 67% of the market according to a 2011 statistic from NumberOf.net”
“Television manufacturing leader Samsung expects to sell 25 million smart televisions in 2012*.
“Samsung alone set a record December 2011, beating sales expectations by $7.4 billion with 45 million televisions sold. “The mass adoption of web-enabled devices will transform the way households access and consume media content on their televisions”, says Keith Nissen, principal analyst at In-Stat, a market research firm. Nissen confirms that e-commerce could play a significant role in that growth”
“”Larger televisions are now becoming accessible to the average consumer; the 60-90 inch displays that once went for around $75,000 are now approaching the $2000-$5000 range. Many people will be replacing their current models in the coming years. With the growing diversity and new technology of televisions: 3D television sets, high definition TV, internet integrated televisions, and interactive or touch screen smart televisions, the future for television sales is strong. “The potential sales and growth in this industry make owning this set of Televisions.com domain names, especially with the holiday season right in front of us, an excellent opportunity to tap into and dominate commerce in a billion dollar market”, states Monte Cahn, domain name expert and President at RightOfTheDot.com.”

Television.com is a “killer domain”? Are you serious? I wouldn’t pay $500 for that turd.
Vegas
The domain is televisions.com and it one of the best selling consumer products worldwide
Your offer is rejected
Congrats Michael to you Monte landing this killer domain!
Very nice domain. One thing: “According to a press release out this morning”? Isn’t ROTD your company?
Joe
My affiliation with ROTD is disclosed on the bottom of the post
Televisions.com sold for $215,000 in 2007.
Do you have any data as to what percentage of televisions are purchased online today versus say 3 years ago, curious if this is a growing or declining trend
VegasPirate44,
I totally agree with you . I wouldn’t pay $500 for ThatTurd.com either !!
Mike,
Good luck with your brokerage of those “televisions.com ” domains.
It will be good for the value of domain names generally if they make mega prices.
It will become something QUOTEABLE !
In your piece above[ apart from a triple l in the title ! Must be a serial killer!! ] you have written :-
“Larger televisions are now becoming accessible to the average consumer; the 60-90 inch displays that once went for around $75,000 are now approaching the $2000-$5000 range. Many people will be replacing their current models in the coming years. With the growing diversity and new technology of televisions: 3D television sets,” etc etc.
The interesting thing there is that you……as an American…..have used the phrase “3D television SETS “. I was not sure if you Americans used the words “Television SETS” much. We certainly do in the UK. We say things like “I’m going to buy a television SET !” , not just “television”.
Anyway, I have owned the following three domains:-
3dtelevisionsets.com and .net and .co.uk for a few years.
What do you think of their value as a trio ? I also have the hyphenated versions !
“It is estimated that over 40 million LCDs will be sold in 2012, and LCD’s only make up 67% of the market according to a 2011 statistic from NumberOf.net”
..Samsung alone set a record December 2011, beating sales expectations by $7.4 billion with 45 million televisions sold.
Strange reading things like this when I look at names like 3dled.tv, lcdhd.tv etc which combined get a ton of searches even including the extension and yet they get zero buyer interest compared with other domains (including .tv) I sell without a huge retail product or a multi-billion dollar industry meaning.
I sure hope you hit it out of the park 😀
I would also consider looking at this killer domain name Gigante.Tv for selling tv’s online which translated from Spanish and Italian to English would mean Giant Tv
Where’s the commentary that really matters, i.e. Jeff Schneider
Hi !
Mike and others,
I wonder what you think of the following generic domains ?:-
LCD-television.net;
LCD-tvs.co.uk ;
42LCDtv.co.uk ;
smart-television.co.uk ;
3dtelevisionsets.com and .co.uk ;
I know that Americans are not over-fond of hyphens, but Germany is oppositely inclined. They are pretty popular in the U.K too.
Germany and UK , alone , have 142 million total population, which is almost half that of the USA.
