and percent of total auction sales here:

domain-tools-auction-results-seattle-2007-table.htm
Here’s some interesting things to note:
- 35% of all the domains that were listed sold. ( 157 / 450 )
- Of the ones that sold, 82, or slightly more than half, sold for more than
their reserve. - 75, or slightly less than half of those that sold, had 1 bidder and
sold for their reserve. - The auction pulled in 24% of the total reserves of all auctions.76% of the
auction assets were left unsold. - The average sold domain sold for 45% of its reserve
Either there are a lot of domainers that are over-estimating
their portfolio values, or the auction didn’t pull in enough heavy hitters. I
vote for the former, and the fact that the quality of domains were fairly
mediocre.
