Michael Berkens from TheDomains and MostWantedDomains sold the domain Bob.tv for $17,500 a couple weeks ago. Michael picked this up during the landrush in Mar 2010 when Verisign shook things up and removed premium renewals and made many premiums available for purchase.
With .tv being one of my main interests in domaining over the years, I wanted to see if this was Bob as in the first name ? or if it was B.O.B. as an acronym. NameJet just wrapped up a bunch of First Name.tv with Debbie closing at $250, there were many more that were auctioned this past week.
Of course the most famous first name .tv is Justin.tv.
Well this is B.O.B. the acronym as in Best Of Business Television. The buyer is BXB Online who has been using Bobtv.biz and upgraded for Bob.tv. Bob.tv is not propagating currently.
Congrats again to Michael and best of luck to Peter Wegren and B.O.B. TV.
Nice upgrade and of course Frank Schilling owns bobTV.com. Amazing how many domains he owns. Would love to know how much he wants for it.
