Domain Investing news roundup for the week of October 28th, 2019

Domain Investing News

Hello, happy Saturday, and welcome to my weekly domain investing news roundup. There’s been some breaking news this morning that was picked up by Elliot from DomainInvesting.com that IJ.com has been sold for $550,000 by James Booth.

As for the story that I think likely trended the most this week, well that goes to the Examiner.com auction. If you didn’t follow along with this one, don’t worry – I’ve got you covered, let’s just say it’s worth making some popcorn first.

I’m in Southern California for BlizzCon so I’ll be watching eSports (major Overwatch tournaments today) and listening to some pretty fun talks and panels. If you want to follow the adventure feel free to check out my updates on Twitter throughout the day. Now, onto the domain investing news from last week – enjoy!
