.Club Registry Sells VIP.club $40,000, THE.club $19,000, MJ.club $15,000

club-new-gtldOctober was a solid month for .CLUB premium name sales, scaring up some strong deals through multiple channels including registrars, registry direct, brokers and aftermarket.

In addition, the registry ended the month by launching an auction of 25 2-letter names and one 1-letter name (C.club) on EJEE’s EachNic.com platform in China.  The fully bi-lingual (English and Chinese) auction is currently underway, and has been off to a good start, with the first 10 names all meeting or exceeding their reserves and successfully selling.

Results of the auction will be published soon.

Total premium name sales for October, including SnapNames sales and auctions, came to a record $125,372.25.

As of October 31, 2015, total cumulative sales of registry reserved premium .CLUB names came to $1,268,199.27.  The highest single sale remains Wine.club at $140,000.00.  The registry introduced the tiered premium names to the registrar channel on July 1, 2015 and total sales, as well as the number of registrars making premium name sales, continue to increase on a month-to-month basis.  A list of participating registrars is available here.

SNAPNAMES AUCTIONS

On August 13, 2015 SnapNames began offering dropping .CLUB names.  Deleted names are offered for $69.00, and names with multiple bids go into a 3-day SnapNames Auction. NOTE: Toward the end of September SnapNames modified the way they present dropping names and while there is a “bidder” column, they no longer show the number of bids placed for a name. This is intended to benefit domain investors who uncover a “gem” and don’t want others to notice due to a bid.

During October 102 names sold with a single bid and 29 names completed auctions.

The highest auction price was $551.00 for 300.club and the average auction price was $102.31.  Total SnapNames revenue for the month was $10,695.

Below is the complete list of registry reserved .CLUB names sold during the month of October 2015.
