I think it was just called " .ca's "

and the first post was something like "seen a bit of action on the .ca drops lately..."

A while back it was posted here that there was going to be a new section for .ca discussion, I was hoping this thread was moved for that reason

Nice find DT, first example I've seen of a billion dollar company stepping up and making a multi-million purchase of .ca domains, and they think they got a great deal at that price to boot! For 400 domains works out to about 6k per name, would like to see the whole list, the names they mentioned are definitely premiums. I wonder too if Emall will regret that deal. Yellow Pages sees that they have to be online to stay competitive and boost revenues. And again, another domain story in a major publication to help boost the domain market and create more awareness for .ca

-----------------------
Latest domain sales report is out and covers the last two weeks.
http://www.dnjournal.com/domainsales.htm

Delivery.ca is number 11 out of all extensions at $29,500 (Can)
WhiteWeddings.ca sold for $1,100

Surprisingly no other .ca on the country code list. The 25 domains on the country code list sold for between $1,500 to $717,000, but most were around 2k to 10k.

The top sale for ALL extensions was a country code domain for Norway which sold for 717k to the Norway government. That's great for all country code believers, and a surprise for a country with less than 10 million people.

So I was hoping to get in on a drop auction and I had the domain backordered with Pool and Sibername but neither of them got it...

Any way I can find out what happend with it?

The whois says: Status: TBR and the drop date was 2006.05.10, so am I safe to assume it was picked up?

It does not show up in my list anymore at sibername, but it is in my list at Pool, but I think domains stay in your list at Pool regardless if they get them or not??

Anyway, the domain in question is l3.ca

Thanks!

Over the course of the last few months CIRA has taken several days to "authenticate" the results of the previous weeks drops. There is a possibility that one of your registrars may have caught the domain but that may not be known of the next 1-5 days. So to answer your question, as of this moment no there is no way to tell what happened to the domain. Once CIRA approves the results from the drop the domain names will be disseminated.

The May 10th TBR run has been cancelled by CIRA.

All names go back into next week's drop.
