Global Contenders (Non .com gTLDs: .biz, .info, .mobi, .net, .org, .asia, .pro & .tel)

The .non .com gTLDs were even slower than usual this week with just one five-figure sale reported - Flex.net at $15,000. It was a long drop to the #2 position held by GinRummy.net at $5,800. Sedo handled both of those sales and wound up sweeping 16 of 21 positions on our new Global Contenders Top 20 Chart (the extra spot resulted from a three-way tie for the final position).

The .orgs, led by #3 Gazeteler.org ($5,250 at SnapNames) had the most chart entries with nine. .Net was right behind with eight. .Mobi claimed a pair of places on the elite list; #4 BMO.mobi at $5,000 and #19 (tie) Betway.mobi at $1,500. The remaining openings went to #11 Lifestyle.asia ($3,168) and #15 Herbs.biz ($2,000).

bmo.mobi was bought by a law firm in Canada that has represented the Bank of Montreal (bmo.com) in the past, so I'm sure this an end-user sale to a well established Canadian bank.

So someone was flipping, as both .mobi are parked with Godaddy.

Good week for hyphens, and even two domains with two hyphens:

OnlineShop-Fuer-Kleidung.de €13,000 = $17,160 ("online shop for clothing", German)

auberge-de-jeunesse.com $4,000 ("Youth Hostel", French)

and a few energy related domains.

There was another end-user sale mentioned by DNJournal:

There were eight more four-figure GC sales just off the chart. Sedo had six of those including OnlineGames.info ($1,399), Casino-Spiele.info ($1,173) and BedLinens.net ($1,149). Kaernten.mobi added $1,056 whileIsgan.org and GolfBall.org went for $1,000 each.

Kaernten.mobi was bought by the official marketing organization of Kärnten. Looking forward to see another beautiful Austrian tourism site built soon (hopefully).
