First
7-Figure Sale Reported Since August + Two at $500,000 Headline DNJ's
Latest Top 20 Chart
|
It seems appropriate
that in our last bi-weekly domain sales report before Christmas,
Santa delivered the gift we have been hoping to see for
several months now - more high end domain sales! He
even came through with the first publicly reported 7-figure
domain sale since August - a $1,160,235 sale of Ballet.com
that crowns our latest all extension Top 20 Sales Chart.
The domain, purchased by a crypto
company in a deal brokered by Puneet Agarwal, also earned a
spot in the top ten (at #9) on our
year-to-date Top 100
Sales Chart.
Thanks
to Sedo,
we also got to unwrap a pair of half-million sales that
sent twins Rebate.com and Rebates.com into the
top 20 sales reported year to date.

The next three spots
on the the new chart were all filled by big ccTLD
sales, including two more that soared into six figures - Sedo's
$128,400 sale of EV.fr and WebInvest.it's
$117,700 sale of Alberghi.it ("hotels" in
Italian). Both of those rank among the five biggest country
code sales reported so
far this year (the ccTLD YTD Top 100 is the
second chart on the page linked to).
Right behind those
blockbusters, at #6 on the Big Board, is a $79,444 sale
of Bling.io via Efty.com.
That wasn't the end of the good news for country code domains
either. They went on to pile up seven chart entries overall,
including two more in the top ten - #8 Scalar.de at $26,750
and # Game.co at $21,486. Sedo, who has long
dominated the ccTLD aftermarket, accounted for all of the
country code sales except Alberghi.it.

The
non .com gTLDs were limited to one chart entry, a solid $40,888
sale of a nice one-letter new gTLD - A.game - that also
closed through Sedo.
Everything
else went to the .coms as they swept 14 of the 22
entries overall (the extra spots resulted from a three-way tie
for the final position). Sedo again did the heavy lifting in
this category with an assist from Dynadot
who booked the $15,000 sale of Grinta.com that
shared the #13 slot with Aloshop.com.
Here is how the
leaders stacked up for the two weeks
ending ending Sunday, December 11, 2022:
