Yesterday the news was Andrew Rosener selling Metaverse.io for $175,000. Acquired for $2,232. Well Swetha from DNGear.com hit a grand slam with the .xyz version.
Acquired for .99 four years ago, she sold the name last week for $9,888. It also illustrates how everyone does not find domain names for sale by the lander.
Some love to say just put up a lander they will find you, sometimes they find you in different places.
Swetha let us know the name was on a Squadhelp lander for $4,499 the buyer went to Afternic and paid $9,888.
Here is an interview with Swetha that I did last year.
Kay says
The name was underpriced at squadhelp, and they will still take a 30% commission on it.
Good thing it was listed at Afternic for $9,888, paid 10% lesser in commission and still receive almost twice the sum it was listed for in squadhelp. Funny how many may have left money on the table because a marketplace has the final say in how much your domain is worth.
A good lesson learnt here. Thanks for the update.
