I thought the dot me auction went pretty well for Sedo and the dot Me family today. There were some pretty good action and the final prices were solid. I personally found two names that I took home. Trees.me and Table.me . I think you can understand why I bought trees. It’s a great marketing name, even an email name for myself and my business. I also had to buy table.me at that price. It was one of the few singular nouns or verbs that stayed below $500. I thought it made a pretty good table reservation name. Anyone else buy any? The prices are public and all over the Internet so you don’t worry about telling us anything we don’t already know. Here is a list of all the prices.

Congrats on your acquisitions.

Congrats, Shane. Great deals at those prices!
I personally stayed away because I think when all these new domain extensions come (and it looks like there will be over 1,000 of them) I see the value of almost all extensions dropping (I think only .com and .org will hold). I hate this additional domain extension plan. It will fragment the internet, cause confusion for consumers, and the only point of it is to put money into the pocket of some ICANN bigwigs.
Oh the humanity..,
I bought 777
Bash away…
.cc .mobi……. and .me?
Dan,
You stick to the way you make money and I’ll stick to mine. Schwartz and Berkens have done OK with dot me
Me again bustin yo a$$
.me auction was a miserable failure
Dictionary words going for 500 bones
What a joke extension
Buy 1000 spy shares & 131 sell @ 132. $1k profit with the quickness
You hold your illiquid .me montenegro bullshit for a couple of years maybe you’ll break even
At least stick with the .com
If you are an ex domainer why are you reading this blog? You probably follow stocks you sold long ago too. The level of liquid-ness is only relevat to the asset holder. Some of these got above newbie xxx prices, we know the gamble. To me these are like buying art. You need to be happy living with it if you can’t sell it. My kids will love a @777.me email if a strong offer does not come in from a gaming company over the next decade.
There are still some great .com’s out there, PS3microphone.com
CateringBusinessCards.com
to name a few so I rather focus on .com (sure money). Occasionally I buy great .co’s ( recordingsoftware.co) as I think .co will be no.2 someday. .com’s and .co’s are the only ones I was able to resale
If you look at the money made in .me (real money, not domainer-flipper-forums money), it’s with keywords that intuitively ‘make sense’ when coupled with the word “me”.
Not ReverseMortgages.me.
It’s names “meet.me” or “kiss.me” or “love.me” or “find.me”
This concept is painfully easy to understand.
@ Jacek, if only ‘sure money’ was as easy as registering TM violations and throwing random businesses in front of keywords.
I picked up Parents.me and I am the co-founder of SportsFan.me which has a lot of serious sports fans involved.
