As domain investors we are risky by nature. We also tend to invest in things that others may not see as “wise” investments. Others seem to have joined in on the fun. The prices of high graded baseball cards are skyrocketing. Its essentially trading virtual assets considering they are just sheets of paper that are graded. You get nothing from them and their value is determined by how much demand there is for it. It represents a player but that’s about it. Its a value of want.
The same is starting in the graded video game market. Old video games are skyrocketing and the are starting to be auctioned on HA.com. Those in the know, (Aron Meystedt) have been collecting for a while now waiting for the market to heat up. Well it has and high WATA rated games are doubling in price every week. Its fantastic to watch and people like us LOVE to see markets develop.
Anyone else seeing a market develop that still has time to get in and make some money?

Have a name at auction and need more exposure? Send me an email. We Charge $10 per name per day. We may be able to help. If you have an auction you want to promote, email us for details.*All names chosen by us, Shane and Josh . (ie you click through and purchase a name you like) or an occasional paid listing. Everything we say is based on our own research or is opinion. Do your own due diligence. That means look it up yourself if you don’t think the stats or our opinion is correct. We hand choose the names but we are paid to make this list by both the auction houses, individuals that are auctioning names, and Godaddy affiliate links. Keep that in mind and only buy names that YOU think are good.
I am a card collector, but a lot of bored people are sitting at home with nothing better to do than drive asset bubbles. We will see if these have staying power when people have less free time, and are back to spending money on other things like travel and entertainment.

It’s fascinating to watch the sports card market heat up – and I wonder how much Gary V has to do with it as he’s been talking it up for a while (he has definitely been an influence to some degree).
The difference with domains is obviously the pure business value they offer (though there are certainly some sub markets that are not about the business value).
Would love to hear about other markets that are still under the radar.
“Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds” by Charles Mackay is often cited as the best book ever written about market psychology. This Harriman House edition includes Charles Mackay’s account of the three infamous financial manias – John Law’s Mississippi Scheme, the South Sea Bubble, and the Dutch “Tulip Mania” Bubble.
