.JP Sold for $39.5K!

[domaindirk]

Cellular.jp sold for $39,500 on Afternic. Seems high for this extension, even if it is a prime keyword. Wonder if it is a real bid? :-D

I was surprised to see this at afternic. Could be for real. Cellular business in Japan is doing very well.

 

[draqon]

too bad that japanese probably dont use the word cellular to refer to cellular.

keep in mind that .jp extension is considered as second rate ext. in japan, because 'real' japanese extension is co.jp which is used for big businesses..

microsoft, yahoo, toshiba, mcdonalds, subway.. none of them use .jp

only co.jp.

 

[funkker]

btw how valuable is .cz extension ?

 

[Wot]

First bid was 11k+ , next was asking price of $39.5k- seen too many bogus at Afternic- lets wait and see.

This is surprising if it is valid

Yes ,you are right.
In Japan,people very like .co.jp not .jp.
In China,people like .cn more than .com.cn now.

Tried accessing the sale and got "This sale isn't public".

Besides the domain in question, they've got "breakusa.com", "hangusa.com"
to mention a few. I wonder if they are Americans.
