Feel
the Power! The 9th Seven-Figure Sale Reported So Far This Year Tops
This Week's Sales Chart
The big news in the domain
aftermarket this week is the $1,261,000 sale of Power.com
that we told you about in a Lowdown
post Tuesday (Nov. 11). George
Kirikos uncovered the private transaction while looking
through a 3rd quarter SEC
filing made by the buyer, Power Integrations,
a large Silicon Valley company that purchased the domain as an upgrade to
their present address, PowerInt.com.
The deal was co-brokered by Scott Smith and WebsiteProperties.com.
In addition to tipping us off on the sale,
Kirikos noted that this is the 9th seven-figure sale reported so
far this year, tying 2007 for the most reported
sales at that level in any given year. We still have more than a
month and half left in the 2014 sales season so a new standard may
be set on that front before the new year arrives.
Sedo
claimed the #2 spot on this week's all extension Top 20 Sales
Chart with EasyBet.com at $43,750. Their $25,000
sale of MGP.com also gave them a share of the #3 slot
alongside RiskJobs.com, a name sold by Doron Vermaat
of Efty.com
for the same price. Sedo then rounded out the first five with
iNavigate.com at $22,500.

Sedo went on to pile up 15 of the 23 chart
entries (the extra spots resulted from a 7-way tie for the final
position). Their sale of #6 OAL.com at $19,999 helped
the .coms sweep the first 7 chart entries and 14 places
overall.
The non .com gTLDs were next with a
half-dozen representatives on the Big Board, led by Flippa.com's
$17,500 sale of Drones.net. The other five sales in this
category were all premium .global domains sold by the
operator the DotGlobal
new gTLD. That group was headed by #9 (tie) Jobs.global at $15,000.
The three remaining chart openings went to
ccTLDs with all three sold by Sedo. The highest one, #11 Gravity.co.uk
raked in $12,720.

Keep in mind that these are the highest
value cash only sales that have been reported to us in the
past week. This column is meant to be an educational tool,
not a complete list documenting ALL high
value domain sales. Such a list is impossible to produce
because many sales are kept private at the insistence of
buyers, sellers or both. Our procedure for verifying the
accuracy of domain sales reports is available here.

The ccTLDs were led by the three five-figure sales you saw on the all extension leader board at
the top of this report, led by Gravity.co.uk at
$12,720 via Sedo. The highest sale in this category that you haven't
seen yet is #4 on our latest weekly Country Code Top 20 Sales Chart.
That is Starmaker.tv, a name that Sedo sold for $8,666.
Sedo rounded out the first five with Rieger.de
at $8,124 and went on to sweep 19 of the 21 chart entries
overall (the extra spot resulted from a tie for the final
position). Golem.eu
had the only top ten entry that Sedo didn't get, banking $4,999
for #10 (tie) ZMP.eu. DomainLore.co.uk
also helped keep Sedo from running the board by selling #15 Brixton.co.uk
for $3,261.
Germany's .de won the extension race with five chart
entries, nipping the four posted by Great Britain's .co.uk.
Tuvalu's .tv was next with three and was the only other
TLD with multiple chart entries.
