Records
are made to broken but new standards usually come in
relatively small increments and are often spaced far
apart. For example, Hicham El Guerroj set a new
World Record for the men's 1-mile run in 1999 with a time of
3:43.13. That record stood for 27 years before Josh
Kerr set a new mark this year that was just a half-second
faster (3:42.66). Domain sales haven't worked that way,
especially in recent years. In 2019, Voice.com at $30
million set a new record that was more than double
the old high. That mark stood for six years but when it
fell it was more than doubled again by the $70
million sale of AI.com (a 2025 transaction that
became public earlier this year). Now, before the year is even
out, the
|
|
|
standard
jumped $29 million higher Tuesday morning when George
Kirikos at FreeSpeech.com
revealed the price paid for Shop.com - $99 million
- in a deal made last month when Market America sold
the name to Shopify.
George, who is an
expert financial analyst, has uncovered countless high end
deals by carefully examining public financial statements and
comparing quarterly changes made to lines that are often used
to include domain sales or acquisitions, like intangible asset
entries. He found the $99 million price in a “Acquisition
of intangible assets” line on a 3Q-2026 Shopify earnings
release. Now, some have pointed out that companies may include
several things other than domains on that line - but Shopify
has not been one of them. George looked back over six
consecutive quarters prior to Q3 when the $99 million figure
appeared) and found Shopify typically reported $0 in
Acquisition of Intangible Assets. With that information and
other in-depth data points from George, Shop.com thus moves
into the top spot on our YTD
Top 100 Chart and All-Time
Top 20 Domain Sales Charts.
In
another outstanding sale that would normally be a chart
topper, Sedo's
"Mr. Premium" Mark Ghorafi (representing the
buyer) and Kate Buckley at Defining.com
(representing the seller), closed a $600,000 deal for Tick.com.
In a separate transaction the buyer also paid Sedo an
undisclosed brokerage commission. Mark and Kate are both world
class brokers and both went the extra mile over a long stretch
of stop and start negotiations to produce a transaction that
both sides were happy with.
|
|
The hits just kept on
coming with two more six-figure .com sales and a
trio of ccTLD sales in the same lofty range. Daytona.com
took the checkered flag at $500,000 in a private
transaction and Ketan Patel revealed a $250,000
sale of DailyHealth.com that he closed through Afternic
earlier this year. The ccTLDs sales all came from the
white hot .ai/.si camp. Brands.io
sold #5 Cardboard.ai for $150,000, Fruits.co
moved Disco.ai for $112,000 and James
Booth (DomainBooth.com)
made the first known $100,000 .si sale with #7 Lambda.si
via Atom.com.
DomainBooth/Atom
and Fruiits both ended up with two top ten
entries apiece. Fruits scored again with #9 Life.si
at $56,000 and James with #10 Hindsight.ai at
$52,490.
The non
.com gTLDs were limited to two spots but one of
those landed on the top half of the elite list as well
as Compute.xyz claimed the #8 spot with an $80,000
sale through Spaceship.

Keep in mind that these are the highest value
cash only sales that have been reported to us in the
past two weeks. 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.

Country
Codes
.AI and .SI continue
to rule the ccTLD aftermarket world. The two combined swept 16
entries on our latest Country Code Top 20 Sales Chart,
including the first nine spots in a row. Brands.io has the
chart topper with Cardboard.ai and .ai went on to pile up six
top ten sales and took seven places overall. The first reported
six-figure .si sale, Lambda.si at $100,000, made by
James Booth and Atom.com, led that TLD. .SI went on to
sweep nine spots on the honor roll.
The highest reported sale outside
of the .ai/.si camp came from Fruits.co where #10 E-Evidence.eu
sold for $18,992. Here is how
the top ccTLD sales stacked up for the two weeks ending Sunday,
