In this week’s Top Topics, domain investors are asked to share a one or two-word .COM in the High Roller Club, and someone receives a $100 offer for a domain name with an interesting message attached.
Elsewhere, Dofo releases its September domain industry report, and why did Jewelry.com rebrand to Welry.com?
The High Roller Club
If you have a one- or two-word .COM domain name that you want to showcase, now is your chance. In this popular discussion, investors are invited to reveal a domain name that matches that criterion.
In addition to this, you need to signify whether you value the domain name above or below $100,000. Which domain name can you add to the High Roller Club?

An Offer and an Interesting Message
After acquiring a brandable domain name at DropCatch around a month ago, this investor put the name up for sale for a four-figure fee on the aftermarket. Then this week, the investor received a $100 offer.
Nothing out of the ordinary so far. However, that low offer was accompanied by a message from someone alleging to be the original owner of the domain name asking for the investor to essentially hand it back to them. What would you do in this situation? Have you ever encountered anything similar yourself?

Automation in Domaining
For many investors, domaining can be an arduous task of searching and browsing through thousands of domain names per day in search of those hidden gems that match your buying criteria.
Here, an investor has asked whether automating certain tasks is something that you do as a domainer, or whether it’s something you’d consider. The investor has also identified several tasks and areas that could benefit from automation. What do you think of automation in domaining?

Jewelry.com Rebrands to Welry.com
If you were a jewelry brand selling jewelry online, which domain name would you want to launch on? Jewelry.com is likely to be your answer. This company originally operated on Jewelry.com, but they’ve just made a significant change.
In an email to its customers, Jewelry.com announced that it would be rebranding to Welry.com, dropping the “Je” from its name. It seems the company is still selling jewelry. What could be behind this rebranding? Did the company receive an offer for the Jewelry.com domain that it couldn’t refuse?
