NameJet Pre-Release Names - Our Watchlist before the domain drop

Namejet - CheapYachts.com up for re-auction

Expiring Names - NameJet

As reported by Davine in our Namejet auction for week ending 9/20/2009, CheapYachts.com was sold for $1,979. The winner of the auction at that time was "skyblue99" who had set an high auto-bid which was not surpassed during the auction.

On Namepros, one of our readers commented that cheap yachts wasn't so cheap. Apparently skyblue thought the same thing and defaulted on the winning bid. Cheap Yachts is now up for reauction which will conclude Friday October 2nd 2009.

Update: CheapYachts.com was reauctioned and went for $1,700 on the second go-round. Winning bidder was Taryn. We were in this auction for a client but gave up after $1,000.

If you are interested in bidding on any auction which is not in your watchlist, please Contact us. We charge a 15% commission to act as your bidder on private Namejet, Snap and Pool auctions. Please keep in mind you must agree to the terms of our Proxy Bidding service.

Some sales that stand out include:

GrandBank.com - Clearly a category killer for Banking with at least one bank in every state utilizing the name "Grand Bank" based on SEs.

Villages.net - Due to some recent weakness in the .net market between domainers, this excellent domain went for less than it probably would have gotten two or three years ago.

Sawgrass.com - A very common corporate name. Clearly only for resale to end users.
