It's more than just an LLL - it's a word

Looks like there are a lot of potential endusers in India for this term, so it's definitely a "big" domain!

hmm..big is already a brand I guess..n that too in India..so chances are that they must have acquired it..good investment for them as far as I can see..

I reckon $2500 USD could turn into a bargain (especially when parallels.in sold for the same amount).

I hope that the transaction gets completed!

When you get a good offer on a domain and send it off to auction instead of accepting it, sometimes the purchaser gets ticked off, especially if the purchaser is an enduser.

It's a very good sale!

I agree. ALso, pushing to auction is not a good idea when the level of economic activity or "buzz" is not very high, like now,m so its risky when you push to auction because if there isn't strong demand, the end sale price will reflect that-by being low.

I think the buyer might be an enduser. And really flipping it for some change as you put is really few atoms of the peanuts for the enduser.

The Whois still hasn't been updated. I wonder if the transaction fell through?

Looks like the Whois data was recently updated, so I assume the transaction did go through after all.

You were correct, Ace. I'm not sure if it's mentioned elsewhere on the forum, but the purchaser of Big.in turned out to be Reliance Big Entertainment.

The domain still doesn't resolve to a website, so perhaps it was purchased for defensive reasons to protect the 'BIG' brand. The main website for Reliance Big Entertainment can be found at RBE.co.in.
