Cams.net was the big dog on the Global Contenders chart this week, notching that big $35,000 sale at Afternic that ranks as one of the four biggest .net deals this year. If it weren't for that sale, .mobi would have completely stolen the show this week. The new extension for mobile devices piled up a remarkable 14 of 20 chart entries, all from land rush auctions at Pool.com. 

You already saw four of the .mobi names on the all-extension Top 20, but there were many more where those came from, including prime geographic domains like Orlando.mobi ($5,100) and Dubai.mobi ($2,450) and great keyword names like Banking.mobi ($4,000) and Loan.mobi ($3,850). Only five .nets and a lone .org were able to buck the .mobi onslaught.

Here's a look at the complete Global Contenders list for the week ending October 15:

The charted domains were just the start of the story for .mobi. Pool piled up 30 more four-figure sales in the new extension. Those are detailed in the table below:

Pool also had a four-figure .info sale with Halifax.info going for $1,351.

There were also many uncharted four-figure sales in the older extensions. At BuyDomains, Ropas.net lassoed $2,288 while Frigate.net and EnterpriseApplications.net connected for $2,000 each. SixteenTons.net weighed in at $1,888, MyTraining.net tacked on $1,688 and Komplet.net cranked out $1,688.

Also at BuyDomains, MedicalResearch.net discovered $1,434 while RealtyNetwork.net and MyTeacher.org turned in $1,400 each. Birdwatching.org brought $1,300, PCMart.net and LetsGo.org grabbed $1,200 each and four others; Pressure.org, MarchingBands.net, CCube.net and Africana.net attracted $1,000 each.

Formentera.net sold for $2,062 to lead a list of 19 four-figure Global Contenders sales at SnapNames. You can see the others in this table:

At Afternic, Hoopla.biz banked $1,549, InternetRegistration.net reeled in $1,010 and three others; InternetHosting.net, MKO.net and B4B.org brought $1,000 each. At Moniker/DomainSystems, Q4.org booked $1,546.

Country Codes

This was the most diverse week we have ever seen on our Country Code chart. 11 different countries were represented among the 15 charted domains. Italy, Great Britain and the United States led the way with three domains you have already seen in the all-extension leader board. Great Britain's .co.uk, Tuvalu's .tv, Uruguay's .com.uy and the Cocos (Keeling) Islands' .cc were the only ccTLDs to score twice this week.

#4 PokerNews.tv raked in a $5,000 pot to post one of that extension's winning hands. Meanwhile, Uruguay made its first appearance ever on this chart with Sex.com.uy and Gay.com.uy each selling for €2,000 ($2,509) at Sedo to tie for 8th. Sedo traditionally dominates this chart and this week was no exception as they swept 12 of the 15 entries.

The other countries represented this week were Poland (.pl), Austria (.at), Lichtenstein (.li), France (.fr) and, for the first time ever, Djibouti (.dj). Here's a look at the complete Country Code chart for the week ending October 15:

In three-figure sales this week, Grab.us got hold of $750 at Sedo while two Canadian domains, Told.ca ($657) and OfficeProducts.ca ($640) found new homes at Pool.
