    Toys.com Sold for $1,250,000

    More premium domains selling in a pretty hot domain market. Not saying domains are recession proof. Wouldn't you think that the business world is beginning to take note? Maybe they are.

    Looks that way so far based on first two months of '09.

    I would guess it could have pulled better offers. The prior owners have been having financial problems and are liquidating assets ... so the sale seems to have been distressed.

    You can not judge the true value in a private auction.

    I think the real deal is going on now.

    Read somewhere that this was on FS is hot after.

    Anyway congrats to the buyer it's a killer domain.
    With all that traffic I will see a fast ROI.

    Sadly, now Frank has more cash to spend on NameJet. There is no hope left for the rest of us LOL

    Toys-R-Us the buyer.

    Wonder what their stock will do now.

    A very high sum to pay for internet space.

    Hope their stock owners are happy.

    No, Frank Schilling was a 3rd bidder.

    Think about it: $5.1 million buys about 51 million cheap toys made in China!
