Some companies with "lucid" in their URLs. End users fighting it out, I guess.

Lucid is nice key word for some company naming.

Lucid Technologies, Inc.
Lucid Solutions, Inc.
Lucid Consulting, Inc.
...etc.

But it looks most bidders are not amateur but PROs.
Because not easy to understand everything about current NSI drop cycle and use SN.
Even most people do not know thier exclusive relationship for supply expired domains.

Just some active domainers knows this thing.


lucid.com $13,501.00 (OVT: 130)
Boomers.com $9,188.00 (OVT: 1,300)

One more thing. This domain is histrical domain.
This case, winner can take over 1988 WHOIS registered date.

It's well known in the inner circles that the domain industry is becoming a fast and easy way to launder money, especially when everyone knows that such sales will be discussed on public forums like these and elsewhere.

This is no longer the funny but legit money of the dotcom bubble. This is serious stuff. Moral of the story if you don't have millions to throw around, invest into new namespace, and grow it from there.

Hi Toho,

Since the domain has dropped, the original registration date won't be there anymore.

I have a domain that was first registered in 1987, listed in the catalog of the first 180 domains to be registered. I grabbed it in 2003.

This is not a DROP, it's an expired NSI domain that's going to be TRANSFERRED to the auction winner at Snapnames based on the new NSI-Snapnames arrangement. The original registration date will be preserved.

I see the ML point being valid only if a crappy name gets sold for thousands of dollars.

Hi,

About 1 year and half, I did not join drop game.
But I prepare Sapporo.com / Kimono.com drops.
Sapporo.com was unscccessful, because I did not know well POOL phase 2 system. And someone blocked my second position used fake bid even Sumai.net at eNom. Finally Nat got Sapporo.com. Sumai.net I got it re-auction but this is .net, so a little worth.
When Kimono.com from NSI, I understood this cycle. But not so many people did not know I think.
NSI -> SN
Dotster -> NW
these are called not drop, may be hifi2 is correct.

I did not try to check Dotster expiring yet.
But from NSI, incredible.
Heavy competitive race. Most bid winning prices are much higher than eNom Club Auctions. If you have 20K funds right now, You can spend just 1 day or not enough.
Of course easy to find words & traffic gems from NSI than normal cycle drops.

$19900 Is reasonable IMO. Many businesses with name starting with "Boomer". Also first name (Boomer Esiason). Baby Boomers etc.
Big Car Audio co. in the northeast USA (40 or so stores) called Boomer Mcloud. Great name for their site!

I think so.
Reasonable for enduser & right developer.
