The domain name sandwich.co sold on Sedo today for $18,000 USD.
Yahoo sold the domain name Sandwich.com for $137,500 back in November 2013 also on Sedo.
The buyer of Sandwich.co is Sandwich Company of Los Angeles, California.
The buyer of Sandwich.com seems to be a different party.
The purchase price of the .co is over 13% of the .com.
Congrats to the buyer and seller.
I live on Cape Cod in Massachusetts and there is literally a town here named Sandwich.
However, they would not be a buyer at $137k.
13% is high for a non .com. Should be 10% or less.
Maybe .com is a little under priced and the .co is a little over priced but thanks for the comparison.
I own a number of .COs as defensive registrations, but for some inexplicable reason I find the extension growing on me. Not that I still don’t think there might be a certain percentage of confusion between it and .COM. And in no way would I consider using it myself as a primary entry point to one of my websites. But still, if one is aware of the extension, (which not everyone is), it is kind of an attention-getter for a site that uses it. In a way. Sort of.
That’s my one non-.COM endorsement for the day.
Thank you for reporting the .CO sale.

They do great work and have an impressive portfolio of clients.
Nice sale, and nice sales ratio to the .com.
Not surprised to see a one word .co that is suitable for a startup tech company sell for that kind of price.
@robsequin… should be 2% or less. jmo… other opinions may differ
I love the .co … I just changed from .com to .co on SellDomains.co … I think the .co domains are going to be very valuable. I own a few.
