TRC.com, a premium, three letter .com domain with an original registration date in 1997, expired, dropped, and was deleted.
The folks at SAV.com were able to capture this former Alibaba Cloud Computing registrar domain that was registered to a Chinese registrant.
So what happened?
We don’t know for sure why would anyone let TRC.com drop. It costs $10 or less to renew a premium domain asset per year for up to 10 years at a time.
Until 2016, TRC.com was in the possession of legendary Japanese domain investor, Satoshi Shimoshita, who sold it apparently.
Back to the SAV auction: The domain is actively receiving bids, having reached a $37,600 price point with six full days to go until the auction’s end.
Three letter .com domains are the de facto coinage, retaining a high degree of resalability. While some recent sales indicate that LLL .com domains can be acquired for as little as $15,000 dollars, these are extreme deviations from the norm.
Congratulations to SAV for breaking the usual streak set by DropCatch as a regular auctioneer of LLL .com domains!
Update 2/13/2025: The auction closed at $100,000 dollars.

Q: what tools do they use to capture expired domains?
Needs Uncle Trump to come in and break up the companies that can get these domains…..have to give it to the public.
To be fair, expired /dropped domains should not be publicized to anyone after 30 days….
