My reply from GoDaddy on asking what the price will be after the 11th:

If anyone can confirm there will be a price drop after the 11th please let me know.

It is obvious that registrars are not willing to shout the prices after October 11th. They'd stop many registrations these days.

But for, example these guys says 14.00:

boobs.com went for somewhere around $5k.

Prices are definitely going down after the 11th. The .mobi folks are not dumb -- it's good old fashioned skimming.

Someone asked why so many .mobi names are showing as owned by Pool.com. It's because many of the names won through Pool have not been officially transferred to their owner yet (including some of mine!).

 

[fischermx]

Yes, Pool has not even charged people. I received an email yesterday with all the names won during the 3 days of auctions. It was near $5,000USD and they were asking me to send a signed paper to proceed with the charge.

dates.mobi $5,100
videochat.mobi $9,000

wow...............
I am surprised that the bidding price for dates.mobi is so high........
I am the owner of it's corresponding .info, if someone offer $5,100 for my .info, I may let it go last few months.....

does it mean ".mobi" has brighter future than .info??? :whoo:

Atleast it means people really think .mobi is going to be a hit.

Thanks.

How do you get to participate in these auctions?

I have been to Pool but found no mention of them.

I would have paid more than the prices realised for everyone of those!

 

[fischermx]

They are the auctions that followed the early catches when landrush begun.
So, you had to bid on those names to see the auctions.

[DomainBuyerBroker]

Did any other registrar put their .mobi grabs out to bid like Pool? I think I know the answer but would love to know for sure.

 

[think]

Galcomm also took bids on pre-regs
