Silent Domain Name Auction Ends Today

[admin]

Moniker seeks to add to record $10M+ domain name auction.
The silent auction portion of Moniker’s TRAFFIC auction concludes today. Some auctions may roll over until tomorrow if there is fierce bidding — any bids received in the final 15 minutes of an auction will extend that auction by 15 minutes.
The live auction, held last week at the Grand Hyatt in Manhattan, sold over $10M in domains (complete results) including two domains for over $1M. The silent auction includes about 3,000 domain names including those that didn’t sell at the live auction.
Most bidders stood on the sidelines until today. About 3%-5% of the domain have received bids, but most people will wait until the last minute to make their purchases. A couple of my domains have attracted bids, including NYCVacations.com at $3,530 and AlmondCoffee.com at $430.
Some of the more notable auctions include:
Kwy.com $5,225 with 5 bids
AntiqueMotorcycles.com $14,120 with 1 bid
