There is also a $20 bounty to the person who comes closest to guessing the closing price. Well now it seems GoDaddy has cancelled some […]

GoDaddy is going to make a lot on this one – 5111.com

April 14, 2017 by Raymond Hackney

One of the greatest benefits of being GoDaddy is you get to benefit from other people’s laziness or misfortune. The 17 year old domain 5111.com just hit GoDaddy Auctions and it’s already at $152,000.

April 3, 2017 by Raymond Hackney

Over the years I have always tried to find ways for readers to get a little bang for their buck and win some cash on certain high profile names at auction. Both here and on TheDomains.com some of the auctions didn’t move much more than when I posted. Easy money for the poster that picked […]

It only takes two to make a market

March 12, 2017 by Raymond Hackney 3 Comments

I was looking at GoDaddy auctions and seeing CultureTech.co currently at $710. It’s a 5 year old domain that at first glance I was surprised to see the price so high.
