Yesterday we shared the big sale of Fashion.NYC and Shop.NYC, at a fashion-themed domain auction managed by SnapNames.
Today we have the final, official results, as relayed to us by Neustar, operator of the .NYC TLD:
.NYC Fashion domains
“The .nyc registry just wrapped up the second premium domain name auction — and first auction of 2017 — with a bang. Twenty-four of .nyc’s most fashionable web addresses were on the auction block in an event that spanned the entire month of February — coinciding with New York’s iconic Fashion Week celebration.
Fashion.nyc, the flagship domain name in the auction, reached a record high, with a winning bid of $37,000! Bidding for the domain name was so intense that the clock had to be extended for 2 hours past the defined end time to accommodate the continuously escalating bids! Shop.nyc closely followed with a winning bid of $33,500. All in all, 23 of the 24 domain names sold for a grand total of $90,938.
Low reserve pricing of only $500 helped to make these premium domain names accessible to a wide audience of New Yorkers. In fact, many great names sold between $500-$750, such as couture.nyc, clothes.nyc and makeup.nyc. These were amazing deals for such high quality digital assets, especially considering that New York City is dubbed the fashion capital of the world.”
