2nd highest .Mobi sale gives hope to Obi-WanKenobi.Mobi

Jason Davis got me interested in buying domain names a year or so ago.

Oh, by the way, my wife wants to personally thank you, Jason.

If you see her coming, RUN!!!

Anyway, I own no domain names significant enough to one day get the five rug-rats through college. I've bought and sold enough to support my Starbucks habit (which can get rather pricey), but nothing to write home about.

I do, however, enjoy hearing a good story about those domain-nuts who happen to make a nice dime on the sale. And I found one today that's sure to keep my habit alive at least for another 3 months.

According to Ron Jackson of DNJournal.com, Flowers.mobi recently sold for $200,000. Nice cash for an unproven extension. Now, before you throw the "isolation theory" in my face, realize that it was backed up by another sale the same week: Sportsbook.mobi (which brought in $129,800).

Sweet-mother-of-all-domain-names.

I think both of those brought in just a little more than all of my domains sales combined (wink-wink).

Anyway, for those who care, here's a look at the complete Top 20 for the week ending Sunday, Jan. 14:



Like I said, it's just enough to keep the appetite whet.
