Yep. I did. About 20 of them. Mostly strong keywords. I think they are worth it considering the size of .de .

I like both .de & .com. But always the real thing.

This is a little bit different.
You cannot compare something.uk.com and something.co.uk, thats true, but many people are used to .co(m).xx (f.e. domain.com.tw in Taiwan)

If your intention is to tap the local market, the Germans expect .de.
.com.de is confusing, as it's neither .com or .de

Note the misleading sales pitch on http://com.de/: .com.de is Germany's newest domain extension.

Ive made some DECENT coin on .de's both English keywords and German Native keywords that are translated CORRECTLY, very important. Its the 2nd biggest market (.de) next to .com, look it up. People make so many foolish .de registrations. They then plug a meaningless English .de into Estibot or Valuate or wherever and are like "Wow, $15,000? Really". No, no, no my friend, don't fall for it. I speak from experience early on, I fell for it, then I learned.... Just because its awesome keywords with high search volume and is available in the .de or .com.de extension, doesn't make it worth something.

Anyway, if you want to make some money in this market, make sure you go about it the right way, whether it be .de or .com.de. See my signature ; )

I know one .DE.COM NOT COM.DE decent sale.. Leasing.de.com sold for $11,700 (approx). Source namebio.com. I think .COM.DE is more valuable than .DE.COM because it ends in .DE, and possibly german buyers will like it. I bought about 20 strong keywords. Just need a broker. :)
