There's money to be made with twitter handles.
Today’s news is 99% about ICANN, what with the revealing of almost 2,000 new gTLD applications.
Even the Domain King noticed the plethora of news blogged about by us and other domain blogs! 😀
But this sale of a Twitter handle for 2,750 British pounds (or $4,279 dollars in current exchange rates) is quite shocking.
Domainer Jay Mahal of SoofiGroup.com sold the much-coveted twitter handle, @Bhangra to ABC Digital, a UK-based record distribution label:
“ABC DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION representing the largest portfolio of Bhangra Music in the World from 100+ Record Labels”
While technically sales of Twitter handles are not permitted, such exchanges are known to happen very often under the table 🙂
Congratulations to Jay who got married to his special lady not too long ago!
Thanks Lucius 🙂
We own @Shares – Maybe someone will make an offer on this handle one day…
very good sale 🙂
