Hello Bonden. Welcome to INForum!

According to the Sedo auction history, this domain did sell for 10,000 GBP in January 2007. See: Bidding History - Sedo.com

That's odd. The current whois says the owner is a German

Hello Ceres,

thank you for your welcome!

Yes, you are right, sedo has reported this sale. I don't know if we can trust this sale. I have seen reported sales by sedo in the past, which had not happened in the end.


@ gentlesavage

Yes, that is me . But please don't post my real name here.
I had regged the domain as it was free to register.

Best regards
Bonden

Hi Bonden - welcome to INForum!

That's a strange situation - I'll see what more I can find out.

The domain was originally registered December 7, 2006. It looks like it was dropped December 7, 2008 and then you registered it when it dropped.

The previous owner seems to be a webmaster and a bit of a domainer. He looks like he's alive and well - very strange he would let it drop if he had paid $10K for it (or he could have bought it from someone who paid $10K).

I wonder if this is one of those transactions where a domain is "sold" to a friend for a high price to try to increase the value of the domain (or the domain extension).

All in all, it's very strange. Thanks for alerting us to it. I think perhaps we should put a footnote on the chart letting people know this.

I see redtube.in is in auction on Sedo with currently 1 bid at 2000 euro and 1 day 20 hours to go.

Wouldn't the bidder just lose this domain in an INDRP case? RedTube is a registered trademark used in association with adult entertainment services and products.

I would think the INDRP would be a slam dunk.

According to Sedo, the domain has received 3,752 uniques in the last month. The buyer may just be gambling that they can make their money back and more before an INDRP.
