The domain name Motors.com has very likely sold at Sedo.com .
Domain broker Dave Evanson had posted on Twitter on May 30, 2014 that the domain Motors.com was exclusively listed for sale at Sedo
Today, I had discovered that the domain is pending transfer via Sedo.
I have reached out to Dave to see if he is able to share the sales price of the domain but have not heard back at time of posting. It is clearly too early to tell who the new buyer is, but one potential buyer could be eBay! They have been pushing eBay Motors a lot lately and recently sponsored Dale Earnhardt Jr’s Nationwide car with eBay Garage.
In general, it took Sedo about a month and a half to sell the domain… which is pretty good, clearly depending on the price it sold for, if that is ever shared publicly! With sales like this, they are often not reported and it’s even hard to detect the domain sold, unless you have eagle eyes and nothing better to do but search domains and know what the hell is even happening with many of them 🙂
Hi Jamie,
Sorry, when you reached out an hour ago I was on a Saturday afternoon bike ride. I am unable to share any details due to an NDA.
Best,
Dave
Thanks Dave! Now we just wait to see who the buyer is 🙂
That’s a nice domain. Congrats to Dave, seller, and the buyer.
Thanks Jamie for great blog posts.
Whois has updated and it appears maybe Frank Schilling was the buyer? The domain is under privacy protection but is with Uniregistrar and parked with DomainNameSales.com . Could be a customer of Franks, so it’s hard to say for sure who purchased it.
