Thanks for the timely bump. This is back on auction, starting September 18th.

What does it mean in French? I think a domain that's a foreign word is only valuable if it has its country's extension. I'd be surprised if you can get $50 for it.

It means 'tournaments' in French. Your second comment is uninformed.

juegosgratis.net sold for $10,499 in August. I could find hundreds of more examples.

Current bid: €80

I have another French domain, Couac.com, which is open to offers via my website or through Sedo.

Why are they so expensive?

[Cornelian]

Well my domain only sold for €80, which was very disappointing as I thought it could reach 4 figures.

iSearch.com recently sold for $250,000 or $300,000, where the buyer went directly to the seller and offered that amount. Evidentially, the domain was a crucial part of their business plan.

Overall, domain names are still very cheap.
