The expired .ai auctions ran for another 19 auctions on Tuesday at Dynadot. Federated.ai was the top close at $8,812. Some of these names I just don’t see with .ai like goodbooks.ai for $1,830. But no reserve brings action no matter what, it’s why Sedo has to go no reserve imo. I do not believe Goodbooks.ai with a $1,000 – $2,499 reserve at Sedo auction would result in $1,830 but I could be wrong.
Here was .yesterday’s .ai action.

I concur
no reserve brings in bidders
then they have skin in the game
when you have high reserves or any reserves, no skin in the game until you’ve hit the reserve price
there’s a gamification factor with no reserves
after you place a bid, competition sets in and many just don’t want to lose
but what do I know? I’m not an expert on domain auctions
I get about half of the domains I bid on in Godaddy expired auctions –
yeah, i don’t get some of those prices
