Default 37.com.au sells for $2

Was surprised to see this one of drop, $2,

I was under the impression that ll.com.au got a few hundred minimum and I would have thought nn.com.au would be similar or higher.

Are both or one of those assumptions wrong?

Cheers,

I disagree - I think it's a very low value for such a domain. There's only 100 of them in the world. That inherently adds value. Plus it's short, memorable and brandable...

I think generally LL's are more valuable than NN's...more chance of an LL being an acronym match to a business name I guess

Both your assumptions were correct. I can't believe it went for so little!

What a great buy imho. Well done to the buyer (who is a member here) - well done to Drop.

It was the first day in ages that I didn't participate in the drops.

different opinions...I never type numbers for a URL, however $2 is just too cheap.

If those assumptions are correct then why would it sell for $2 if the market value is several hundred? I don't know if that can just be put down to randomness.

Do we have any data on other nn.com.au sold at auction?

Here is another question to consider,

Is this the type of name that people feel "should" have some decent value but that nobody will actually stump up much for?

(because they could be buying names with a clear use, potential enduser buyers etc).
