$xxx,xxx What language, assume .com ?

I got a feeling it was a Russian one.

No idea what niche, etc - but I like everyone else would be very interested to know more.

Would also be interested if the currency could be confirmed as well. All we see is xxx,xxx - is this dollars, pounds, euros ?? Or someother obscure currency where xxx,xxx of it equals about $5.23.

The sale was in dollars. I am sure Michael will release more info in due time.

I hope it was an Arabic one but I think its either Russian/Japanese/German, just a feeling!

I am sorry i cant currently reveal additional info on that particular deal and on others that also happened recently with idns. the only thing i can currently repeat is that there was this 1 domain sale of $xxx,xxx and another deal of $x,xxx,xxx

Surely i will update the board once possible.

For the record it is a Russian domain and unfortunately the seller wanted $ and not Rubles.

Another deal of $x,xxx,xxx ????

WOW !!!! Please tell me you will be informing DNJournal about that - This is will surely be a positive sign for IDNs.

As I was the first to guess it was a Russian domain - do I win a prize ???

With the right connections, it's easy to steal a top IDN domain from this market for $xxx,xxx and flip it for $x,xxx,xxx...

I believe that was a deal for more than 1 domain.
Maybe the famous Monte radio gaffe comes true as well.

The only thing that surprised me about the deal, which I have known about for a while, is that the seller agreed to sell. Having probably covered his renewals for quite a few years, it is going to be even harder to persuade him to sell more now.

Don't worry, you will get your turn. Probably have to wait a while yet, but there is big money in oil these days.
