Domainer's Gazette-Home

so, I was in an auction for the domain ComputerPros.com a few days back, and was soundly thumped and outbid. It sold for $7,400. Worth the price though, and a good buy.

Since NameJet continues their inane ‘nameless bidder’ auction process, I finally followed up through whois to determine who won it..

DN Investment Group, LLC , it told me..

hmm, never heard of those guys (or gals)

let’s visit their site, dninvestmentgroup.com

holy ba-jeezus..did their nephew-in-law design the site in Front Page?

and the Title tag on their homepage is ‘Welcome Home’..oye..

Let’s just ignore that for now..

Their portfolio is what I’m interested in seeing..

..and their portfolio is quite well stacked..

Bubbles.com

CubanCigars.com

and a domain I competed against them for, way back on May 13, 2006, that they eventually dropped $55,350 to acquire:

GolfClubReview.com

Yeah, the names are good, but more importantly, these guys seem to have cash to back up their investments..

the more this industry becomes exposed, the more small, subtle and quiet businesses like this are popping up..

great for the industry, but stanky for smaller, self funded guys like me..

I wish there were a big domaining company here in the ATL I could work for..

I’d work for free : )
