In October, Toby Clements announced a contest.  One buyer and one seller would receive $ 1,000. each. 

When a company runs a contest, they always state who won at the end of the contest. 

 So, who were the winners?

 

 

 (Toby Clements announcement - October, 2011)

All,

Today, I want to announce a monthly bonus for October:

If you buy or sell a name with us for the entire month of October, your name will be put on a list. At the end of the month, I will pick two people (one buyer and one seller). The winners will each get their pick of either a $1,000 store credit with TobyClements.com (for future domain deals) or a $1,000 Gift Card to the store of their choice. With all of the domains we have and all of the holiday’s coming up, either prize is a true winner.

The rules are simple:

- Every purchase and/or sale qualifies you Regardless of price! (that’s right, a $500 domain purchase gives you a shot at $1,000!)
- Each domain deal this month gets you an entry.
- Multiple domains on one deal is still One Entry.
- No discounted commission deals qualify.
- All decisions made by me are final.

All this being said, if you have submissions, please get them over to us at Submissions [at] TobyClements.com.

If you are thinking about buying a name, this is a great month to get a bonus for doing it.

Best of luck to all of you and we will announce the winner in November.

Regards,
Toby Clements

U.S. Congress

Today, a U.S. Senate committee overseeing commerce and technology asked Icann and other stakeholders – “what is the hurry?” 

Icann told the senators they are moving ahead with the introduction of the new gtld.  Icann has already held hearings and published the guide books covering the new gtld.  It was very obvious that Icann is not answerable to the U.S. Congress.

Representatives from the Association of National Advertisers (ANA), YMCA and other associations explained it will cost the firms they represent millions in unnecessary domain registrations and renewals to prevent cybersquatting.  And, the domains will not be beneficial to them.  

More information about today’s U.S. Senate hearing can be seen at Clickz.

Earlier today, I noticed a number of bids on DNForum for zvy.com and xz.org. 

3 letter .com and 2 letter .org domains are valuable.  But, why pay the standard market price for a 3 letter .com like zvy.com when it doesn’t contain one good letter.  The underlying value for 3 letter .com domain  for a domainer is knowing a possible enduser will have a use for it.  Who could possibly use zvy?  Checking the different acronym databases, no uses turned up which is unusual.

Furthermore, 2 letter .org domains are rare.  And, possibly an organization might have a use for the letter ‘x’.   But, who could use xz.org?  The Ex Zen Assn?

In the same sales section of  DNForum, one could buy a premium 3 letter .com for a few more thousand (dollars) than the cost of zvy.com.  Knowing there is an instant market for the domain.

I suspect the possible buyer of zvy.com and xz.org is gambling.  Unfortunately, hoping there is a bigger fool down the road.

The seller of the domains purchased the domains recently.  They were purchased in the range of $ 2,500. each.  And, he plans to flip these low value domains for a quick profit. 

Add’l facts – zvy.com sold today.  As an educated guess, the domain sold in the range of $ 5,000.+.

How did we let this Birthday slip by without any fanfare?

Namejet’s first day of operation was 4 yrs and 2 months ago.   October 5, 2007.

Namejet was 4 years old in October.   It’s amazing how quickly they grow up.
