With death and taxes being life’s two unavoidable things, it’s not surprising to see tax related domains sell for a lot of money.
Take for example TaxNews.com, a domain that was originally registered by the British company PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC.)
Somehow, that 1996 registration dropped, perhaps due to the registrant email “pwcgts@ca.pwc.com” not receiving expiration notifications.
TaxNews.com was caught by DropCatch and was auctioned off.
The ensuing bidding battle ended up attracting 189 bids from 63 bidders, and a winning bid of $7,749 dollars.
Not a bad paycheck for DropCatch, that consistently catches premium domain names at the drop!
