Hi all,

I was just curious what the highest price is that has been paid for an aftermarket AU, developed or not.

Quite interesting I considered hyphens

only have one and its a commercial-property.net.au yeah hyphen and .net.au lol

I generally shy away from hyphen names might have another look so eof them prices are quite good for hyphens IMHO

i'm not a fan of hypens but if you know you are NEVER going to get the non hypen dot comau then it could be worth it

I've got over 600 domains and I've only got one hyphenated domain. It's a French geo domain and I also own the non-hyphenated version (both .com).

Hyphenated domains are a nightmare to resell, but some people love them for development (minisites etc).

In Europe they're very commonly used, in fact organisations will often use the hyphenated version even when they own the non-hyphenated version. That is not the case in Australia - so I would avoid them for .com.au and especially for .net.au.

radio-rentals.net.au

hmm they must of acquired the .com.au now redirects was hyphenated .net.au for ages.

I didn't think they are really worth buying some people do going off the stats that have been posted

Car-sales.com.au gets redirected to carsales.com.au so I dont think the news is all bad with hyphens....it seems to be more of a domainers personal opinion on values for non hyphens...cover all the options for protection purposes IMHO.

BTW thanks Chris for getting this thread rolling....what about the highest .com.au's? SHould I start another thread?
