He did note GD is 'selling' it, which means that price is the GD inflated reg fee for it.

Great post! Hmmm CSC global. I've always thought of them as thee enforcers in trademarked domains and are usually not on the side of domainers. Tried to contact them about my domains. No reply. I'm guessing CSC is not a good idea to contact about semi close TM. It's cool CSC brokered the deal for monster. Never knew CSC did that sort of thing. Never knew monster had that many domains. Makes one wonder. How many other companies have such inventory ? I wonder too if companies like monster frequent domain marketplaces like godaddy or sedo.

I believe CSC manage Monster's portfolio, so they were the natural choice to broker the sale. They regularly do sales and acquisitions (I've sold a name to them).

I wouldn't try to contacting them about a TM domain though.

possible to get a list of 14,300 domain names sold?

How much could the price be maybe 2 million $ ?

GravityEleven · Apr 5, 2016

it was just 6 figures.. making it out at around $ 20-50 per domain.. ridiculously cheap and BuyDomains made a great deal here obviously.. guessing Monster domains simply ran into liquidity/cashflow issues with such huge renewal bills on so many exact match domains which have been losing their glitter in the past few years..

Thank you for posting. Safe to say buydomains got away with robbery here, congrats to them

BuyDomains, do not ay more than $10-$20 for a bulk deal, and I am sure they didnt pay more than low 6 figures for this portfolio acquisition IMO. Speaking from my past experience with BuyDomains.

There were rumors of such a portfolio being shopped around, BuyDomains is not Godaddy, as you see much of there inventory on Afternic. I think it is Endurance.

The think about these kind of deals, they want someone who can step up, and write on check, and get the deal done quick, with minimal delay. Of course BuyDomains business is piecing it out, and I am sure they will do well with it. I have no idea what they paid, but if CSC was handling it, they would have shopped it around, I am sure Godaddy would be interested, maybe even someone like Mike Mann, my guess would be about $500K, or $35 per domain.

nice deal for BD if in fact this was a 6 fig only sale, then again if they posted this list on NP they would have been offered $5 bucks for the entire thing so maybe monster made out real good after all

Pierre Barnard · Apr 8, 2016

Apologies for the newbie question, but how would BD acquire their domains?
