Sales real or not?

[hugegrowth]

There are so many sales you'll just never know, but I think most of them are probably legit. If ireport.com can sell for 750k, then nothing surprises me anymore.

"triple credit report" get 29,000 returns on google for the exact term in that order, and many credit report ads (probably well paying per click).

It may refer to an "Experian credit report, Transunion credit report, and Equifax credit report". So the domain is valuable to a company selling these reports, even though I'd never heard the term before. It will be great to advertise with and probably having this domain will let them spend less on PPC search advertising, and make them look like experts in the field. So it may not be an unrealistic sale when you dig deeper.

Ron Jackson may have some more insight into these sales.

I just read the first paragraph in the weekly sales report after posting above and it explains the top sale fairly well, there is even a website setup there already.

I've seen many crazy things in my domaining years, like average $xxx worth domains selling for 6 figures and vise versa. It's all about having one interested buyer and anything is possible.

One case I'm aware of, someone I know paid low 6 figures for a year old domain, because he had an idea how to develop it and make that money back in ~ a year. Not sure if he did, but that was a lot to gamble on and the seller got over 100k for a domain he spent $14 on ..

Of course there are probably some fake sales too, so it's hard to know.
