Back in May of 2017 we posted about Mike Berkens selling Learn.Wine for a net of $10,000. Well Mike is back at it with the sale of Talk.Show. Mike tweeted out the details today and while there is an NDA, there is some info that can be taken away with regards to the domain sale.
We have now sold the new gTLD Talk(.)Show which we previously reported we turned down a $25K offer on; unfortunately the sale is under NDA so we cannot reveal the price other than to say it was not $25K. #Domains #Newgtlds

The buyer is from Holland. Talk.show is probably the most intuitive .show name out there, that and tv.show.
Congrats to Mike
*Update* Price revealed by the buyer on Twitter,
I am the buyer, and I paid $50k for https://t.co/yDE9n6pCvH. If you had accepted my $5k offer on May 4, 2017, and had invested that in $XRP, as I suggested to you, you would have made $197k today. Thanks, I will make good use of the domain and the funds.

Domains are limited, only one of a kind.
Mark says
Nice domain, I’m sure the price was nice too.

Congrats to Mike!
He is doing better in his domaining “retirement” than most of us who are NOT retired…lol
Berkens is the man!
PS
Love MB’s twitter response to this knuckleheads investment tips.
“Congrats on the purchase I had $5K to buy $XRP in May; I bought some around $1 a couple of weeks ago sold it at $3.20 over the weekend; Rather have the $50K for the domain today than $5K & some advice on how to invest it in May; l have $BTC; $ETH; $OMG & $XVG @.04 now .17”
My translation – Basically, STFU and thanks for your money.

Congrats to Mike who continues to show an uncanny ability to acquire and flip valuable inventory consistently over time.
