Domain Madness Postponed Until Next Week - Online bidding fails and auction is postponed until next week. Running domain name auctions is hard. Promoting an auction and handling the technical back end is even harder. Just ask Rick Latona. Today Domain Madness was supposed to hold its third annual auction on the new Boxcar platform. Unfortunately the platform wilted under the pressure. I logged in an hour after the auction was supposed to start, only to see organizers call it quits. Auction organizers said ... read more ...

Court to Auction John Zuccarini Domain Names Apr 8 - @Josh Mr. Zuccarini accepted a plea deal in that criminal prosecution, which is not related to the civil judgment in the Office Depot case resulting in this auction. Mr. Zuccarini served his time for that conviction. There are specific laws about guns, so “argument by analogy” when it comes to ongoing restrictions is not the point in relation to these domain names. You can be convicted of hitting someone with a hammer, serve your time, and you are not forever barred from owning ... read more ...

Sequoia and Bain Capital-Backed Startup Was $350,000 Color.com Buyer - Startup with big funding bought Color.com for $350,000 in December. In December I wrote about a GoDaddy-brokered sale of Color.com for $350,000.

Jason Kincaid of TechCrunch describes it as a location-based twitter for photos. Here’s one scenario he describes: Say you walk into a restaurant with twenty ... read more ...

My First Afternic Premium Sale: $6,800 - Take advantage of one of the best domain sales channels. I was quick to jump on the bandwagon when Afternic announced its new instant transfer partners for Premium Promotion last year. With Premium Promotion you can list a domain name that you have at, say Moniker, directly in the sales path at other partner registrars such as eNom. When someone searches for the domain name at eNom they can add it to their shopping cart and buy it instantly. That’s exactly what ... read more ...

Afternic Sells Over $700K In Domains Led By Telomere.org For $25K, AN LLL.ORG & A LLLL.com - Afternic.com just released its reportable sales for the week ending March 13th, 2011. In all Afternic.com rang up over $700,000 in domain name sales. The highest selling domain was Telomere.org for  $24,900.00.

XXXbook.com Sells For $100K On Sedo.com - Sedo.com is showing the domain name XXXbook.com just sold for $100,000. It looks like the domain has minimal traffic according to Alexa and Compete and is being redirected to XXXmatch.com Currently the site calls itself the “Facebook of Sex”. That’s an issue with Facebook already taking legal action against other sites that start in the word “Face” or end in the word “Book”. Its a very nice price for the domain and hopefully the buyer will be careful not to do anything to jeopardize ... read more ...

Despite War & Internet Cutoff, Someone Steps Out & Spends $14K On 3.ly - Despite a war raging in Libya,  home to the .LY domain extension (ccTLD) and a very uncertain future as to the Government of the country, someone has stepped up and paid 10,000 euro’s approximately $14,000 for the domain name 3.ly. You have to admit with Libya  in turmoil, and with the Government cutting off Internet service inside the country you have to be somewhat brave to spend $14K on a .Ly domain. Of course months ago Syria also warned that such short domain names might be taken by the ... read more ...
