Mike Mann sells StopTheHate.org for big bucks.

Sedo had a strong sales week last week, handling 584 transactions for a total of $1.6 million.

Human Rights Group, which campaigns for LGBT rights, paid a solid price for a .org domain name. Mike Mann sold StopTheHate.org to it for $24,888.

The International Olympic Committee, which usually finds some legal way to get domain names it wants, bought the surname of the founder of the IOC in .com.

Here are some end user domain name purchases from the past week at Sedo:
